Horses - we love them no matter what?

My riding buddy just  bought a new horse.  It is a beautiful copper Palomino - stud - 6 years old - and untamed.  His has the most perfect blond mane that needs to have it cut off to remove all the "Angel knots".  What was he thinking?  If anyone he will be able to gentle him, but what a challenge.  He looks like this horse actually - except the mane is seriously tangled!

Yesterday I watched a movie "White Mane", a French movie on the Criterion Collection on Hulu Plus.   If you love horses then you should watch this - it isn't too long at all.

 

Did I ever mention that my horse Lucy lost her eye last fall?  What a nightmare trying to save it and for naught.  Somewhere I kept a lot of photos, and I will have to find them.  She is amazingly the same stinker she was before!

I have just started to see the mosquito's outside now, with all the water they are everywhere.  But thanks to my Avon Skin So Soft bug repellent I am doing great!  There are so many mosquito's!

Avon for Horses and other pets!

For real - this Avon product: "Skin so soft" has been known for years to be a great bug repellent.  Now Avon has come out with a line of pest repellents using the main ingredient from the original product:  Picaridin".

We have horses - they have bugs - in fact- there was an awful big flying nightmare in the garage today - finally found his way out.  The horses spook when those buzz around - hate that when I am riding.

Anyway:  here are some of my ideas for the Skin so soft (SSS) and horses.

The SSS oil is a great product.  You just mix a cupful or two in a bucket and spray on the horses.  Not only are they bug repellent - they have a wonderful sheen to their coat.  If that is too thick for you - dilute it more.  You can spray this on dogs, cats, and goats.  (Good luck holding the goat down!)

I like to put some in the final rinse of my outdoor clothes and I put some on a sock in the dryer.  Of course I put it directly on my bandanna or hat when we go for a ride.  I like to rub in in the horses mane as well - !

Good flea retardant, great bug repellent, and great for the coat and skin of any of your animals.  Even you!  LOL.

You can read for yourself - just do a Google search.  I found how it was recommended instead of DEET by the CDC up in Atlanta.  (That is the Center for Disease Control, if you didn't recognize the acronym.
