Frequently asked questions about clipping
About clipping and clippers
When should I clip my horse?
Clip your horse as soon as the winter coat comes through and it sweats heavily during work, usually from mid-October. You will often need to touch up the clip after a few weeks. Don't clip too late in spring, so the summer coat can come through properly.
Which clip suits my horse?
That depends on how much your horse works. For light work, clipping the neck and belly is often enough. If your horse works regularly, choose a blanket clip or hunter clip, which leaves the legs and saddle patch unclipped. The more you clip, the warmer the rug needs to be.
Clipper or trimmer: what do I need?
A clipper lets you clip the body quickly and evenly. A trimmer is lighter and quieter, making it handy for the head, ears, legs and tidying up details. Many riders use both.
How do I look after my clipper?
While clipping, regularly remove hair from the blades and lubricate them with clipper oil so they don't get too hot. Clean the clipper after use. If the blades start pulling at the hair, have them sharpened or replace them.
How do I stop my horse being frightened of the clipper?
Let your horse get used to the sound and vibration calmly first. Start on a less sensitive area, such as the shoulder, and clip in a quiet spot with a clean, dry coat. For the head, a quiet trimmer is often more pleasant.
Which rug does my horse need after clipping?
A clipped horse loses heat faster. Use a stable rug in the stable and a winter turnout rug in the field, with a neck cover if the neck has been clipped too. How thick the rug should be depends on the temperature and the clip.
