What an amazingly good boy he was, quite incredible for such a young horse well done Mushu. The young woman who clipped him did a wonderful job, she was very kind & patient. 👍
Thank you! Yes, she was so wonderful.
This is the problem with hairy cobs; the same goes for a lot of our native breeds in the UK as well. It's like, it's fine to weather out the winter since it doesn't usually get super cold (and if it does snow, they're prepared for it), but with the climate change going on and having milder winters, it's pretty hard on them. I advocate for clipping for comfort taking off as little as you can, but sometimes they need that little bit of extra help.
Our Teddy-bear boy looks all grown up. Love how she did his legs. I've seen Gypsy cobs clipped and hogged and the feather gone and though it's tidy and easy to keep clean, I don't like it. I suspect hogging the thick long mane does help in keeping them cool because I notice locally the gypsy ponies do sweat under the mane. This clip really shows off the feather. Good job! And Mushu too. He is a STAR!
I definitely couldn’t hog him unless it was medically necessary haha!
Mushu was the epitome of patience and good temprament during the entire clipping process. Only being 3 years old Mushu is a testimony of the loving care he's received combined with your expertise and skills as an accomplished equestrian, trainer, and horsewoman. Thank you for showing another teachable moment how wonderful relationships can be built with these beautiful, loyal, amazing animals and everything you do for the horses Shae. ❤
Awww this is so incredibly kind! Thank you. Mushu is such a gem and I’m lucky to have him 💖
❤ I love the Gypsy Vanner - Cob breed. Mushu's coloring is very unique along with that mustache! 😅
What a super good boy! Seriously, for a 3 year old baby he was a true champ about getting clipped.. Good boy, Mushu!❤
He was a good good boy. He looks lovely ❤❤
I can't believe how well behaved he was while getting his summer crew cut. 😂 His stash kills me, how did he get so cute. Such a good boy.❤
Mushu looks so good. And he stood so well. He must feel so much better. Well done Shae, good call xx
He is standing so still. Such a beautiful horse. I think he likes it. He is nothing short of a furry teddy bear. But that mustache is killing me. I'm in love with it. Awesome job for an awesome horse. Thank you for sharing. Impressive!
He’s the best!! Haha
He looked so happy at the end heading into the pasture and showing off his haircut, haha! He is the sweetest 😍
The clip looks fantastic and he must feel so much lighter . That perked him up as he runs the pasture happily. He's got such unique markings too and such a lovable guy. 👍🐎🌻Adore his feathery legs.
I’ve worked with seasoned show horses who got clipped on a regular basis and they didn’t behave that well. He looks amazing and I’m sure he feels much better. ♥️🐴😁
Hunters are also clipped to avoid overheating.
He looks really handsome. Such a well mannered and calm 3 year old for getting his first clipping. A true gem of a horse AND trainer💕 it’s nice for people to see a horse being clipped, different styles and why. The equine beautician Mushu seemed to like. Was waiting for him to give a good roll in the pasture 😂 do you think since he gets a bit sweaty and his new summer adventure of being broken in, would he utilize a cooling blanket/back wrap? Free Spirit always puts a smile on my face no matter which horse or what you all are doing; even on the tough days there’s always something to share. You’ve made some of my tough days lighter and definitely helped to improve my laughter/smile lines! I can’t begin to thank you enough and thank you for helping others on their equine journey. Whether you’re experienced or novice, we all can learn and help support each other. The community you have is amazing! 🌻💕🤗
Thank you! I was very impressed with how he handled everything. I do have a cooling blanket for him! Yippee. 💖💖💖💖
I thought it was interesting that he looked more like the youngster he is once the clipping was finished. He was so good, including when she worked on his face. He looks amazing.
Thank you!
Shae, your new mentorship program that you are offering is such a great idea. Your vast knowledge and experience that you have acquired over the years of owning and training horses is truly invaluable to others who are horse lovers like yourself. Thank you for being so open and willing to share your expertise with others so that they can be the best that they can be as well. I know that your program will be a huge hit with other horse lovers and it will bring a lot of well deserved praise for you and Free Spirit Equestrian!
Mushu was such a good and patient boy for his first grooming session! This is proof positive of all the love and kindness you show each and every one of your horses and the amount of time that you spend with them. They know that they never have to worry about any harm coming to them when you and Kyle are around. I was very interested in finding out what was under all that fluffy fur and he is just stunning! I love his coloring and unusual patterns that truly shown through after his trim. The woman that groomed/trimmed Mushu did an excellent job and helped to keep him calm throughout the entire process. He didn’t seem phased at all at the sound of the electric clippers and he seemed to really enjoy the attention. When he showed his pleasure with his lip movements I laughed out loud!
Thanks for another great video - Mushu certainly deserves lots of yummy treats after being so good for the groomer! 💕😊🐴👍💕
He is Soooo laid back. Gorgeous no fuss temperament. My girl is a chunky Cob and is the same. ❤
I could tell in his eyes he truly enjoyed the clipping . He loves all the attention he can get , maybe even a little bit spoiled. He's a very good boy . Thanks for sharing.
He sure does haha 😂
I love his expression. I'm sure he feels so better. Sometimes it looked as if he turned to her and said you missed a spot. Great clipping job. Mushu is a beautiful boy. I still can't get over that mustache. ❤❤
That marvelous boy was soooo good for his very first full body trim. And his mustache is so unique it can't even be copied. When he wiggles it around it is the funniest thing ever.
Mooshoo definately wins the "Mr. Chill" award! What a good boy he is!
I’ve been meaning to comment on Mushu’s mustache since he got there!! It’s SO DANG CUUUUTE!!! I’ve actually never seen a horse with a stash like that! Love it!!❤️😝And what a good boy he is!!❤️❤️❤️
ikr! SOOOO CUTE
I agree. Never knew any horse had a mustache, could not figure out what I was seeing! Such a cool dude.
@@moccasinlanding me neither! He had one when she got him, but then it was gone. I love that it’s grown back!❤️
Me either! At first I thought he was chewing on something 😂
Mushu did awesome! I'm sure he feels so much better now. His run to the pasture was adorable!
In the summers here in southeast FL, horses have to be clipped and their manes braided daily to stay cool. Some owners have them in their pastures/paddocks at night and bring them in during the day with running stall fans and plenty of hay. As an owner you have to do what's best for the horses. And you do Shae! So wonderful to see as you teach others all things equestrian❣️
Makes sense!
What a hecking cutie Mushu is! I can't even handle that moustache! How did he not end up being named Poirot with that thing?
Not only did he do great tolerating the clip - he looked like he actually really enjoyed it! I thought he was falling asleep there for a bit. Good boy Mushu!
Thank you!
His coat is absolutely gorgeous, he looks so much better and obviously he will feel more comfortable.
Be prepared, his hair may not grow back the same, but i'm sure he'll be gorgeous anyway
Mushu is a dream! Don't know if it's characteristic of his breed to be such an agreeable partner or not, but he's a treasure! Sweet!🥰
Mushu was great for his first clip! He looks so dapper and comfortable 💜
Loved watching Mushu and his first "haircut" . My Cob loves being clipped, and living in Australia we must clip in summer! ❤
He has the best personality!
I’m sure he feels so much more comfortable without his fur coat.
Watching him brings me so much joy!
Thank You for sharing him❤
Oh my gosh, he looks absolutely so handsome! The young lady did a great job; Mushu was a real gentleman for the whole procedure.Loved it!!!
That was a true combination of a very good boy for being so trusting and a clipper who was confident and just got in and did the job, while being kind and patient at the same time. Excellent result, he looks amazing. What a darling he is 😊❤
Thank you! I agree. 💖💖💖
He did such an amazing job! I can't believe that was his first clip, he handled it like a pro.
As a former Gypsy owner, I'm so proud of Mushu for living up to his heritage of gentleness and intelligence. I was surprised that he hadn't shed out in the spring, and normally clipping is frowned on for this breed, but really apparent that it was necessary. Finally, I have to say that the clip really shows off his cobby build! He is a real prize.
He looks so much better!! I’m happy that he won’t be so hot now that he is clipped ♥️
He was such a good boy. He looked really good before but looks amazing now. I'm sure he's so happy getting all that off.
Mushy is such a handsome boy! And he was absolutely loving all the attention given and the relief of getting all that fur off. If you have a repeat of having to shave Mushy, I don't think he will mind a bit, more like will look to insist on getting it done again! LOL! His coloring underneath is gorgeous!
I think your mentorship program is an awesome idea!
GV's are known for their intelligence & good nature. Mushu just proved this!!! 💕
Yesss always keep his moustache!! 😂❤
It's adorable! I'd never seen a horse with a mustache. 😊
He was absolutely FANTASTIC!! He held so still for her!! His coloring is incredible!! I can’t wait to see how it changes as it grows out. He shows so much emotion through his mustache. He doesn’t act like a three year old, I bet you’re so proud of him!! 💛🧡
Thank you!!!! He’s the best boy. My heart is full.
Omg Mushu looks sooo cute clipped I'm so glad this will help him stay cool for the summer and I cant wait till you can ride him his spots look so good❤❤❤❤❤❤
His coloring and roan pattern are beautiful! Enjoy this beautiful weekend!
💖🐴🌼
Just watched Mushu get clipped!! He is a Gentle Giant-not height but width!! So Freaking Sweet❤ Absolutely Love his Coloring under his winter coat!!!
He looks like a grown up horse. Absolutely beautiful!
I have never seen a horse with a mustache. That is too cute!
He looks stunning with the leg feathers left
Oh my gosh he looks gorgeous!! 💖 I loved his faces throughout it 😂💗
Omg he looks so cute! Lol so much hair! I’m glad you kept his mustache! :)
What a huge difference. He looks so nice like that.
Omg, his mustache is so adorable! He's such a good boy!!😊
Mushu was such a good boy getting shaved. He look’s so cute ❤️
He looks fabulous since his clip.
I'll confess that I had a good old belly laugh a few videos ago when you first turned them out because I thought he looked like a St Bernard out in the field. Lol! So glad you got him clipped I'm sure he feels chuffed. Stash for days! Such a good boy.
Bahahaha
My Norwegian Fjord has Cushing’s & I’ve got to clip her yearly, as she does not shed out her winter coat. Last year I got body clippers & that speed up the process tremendously. I used my regular clippers for the more tricky areas. A few good things to remember is to oil the blades frequently, grease the clippers where needed, make sure the blades don’t get too hot, run thru blade wash occasionally while clipping, then re oil, it will give you longer life of the blade before having to sharpen them. I actually did a second clip on her in August & she still got a full coat for the winter. Fjords shed their summer coat in August, so I just sped up the process. She spent all but 3 nights outside during our western New York winter, with no blanketing. She has a deep run-in available, but spends most of her time outside. She tolerates the clipping well & I am planning on doing her tomorrow. We had a Fjord gelding we sadly lost 2years ago, he also grew a great mustache! I like that you work with people on finding the right horse for them & don’t push them into a specific breed. I taught beginner’s at a top rated hunter/jumper barn & not all horses work for all people. (And boy did some of the lesson string take students for a ride, not a good thing!) Thanks for sharing this video, it was great seeing the end result, your boy sure has some color!
He is being such a good boy ❤
His colors underneath all that hair are amazing!
I love Mushy. He is so kind and sweet. He is prettier shaved
What a great job she did! That has got to feel so good!🤎🐴🤎❤️❤️❤️
Mushu is BEAUTIFUL!!!! He was such an angel for the first clipping!!!♥❤
Mushu looks super adorable handsome Gypsy Vanner 😍 Mushu did amazing calm for his first clipping 👍 Great job Mushu 😊
Thank you for saying not to clip the Whiskers because so many people at my barn alone do it I hope that when more people understand horse need them it will be a in the past method
What a wooly bear! A good moisturizing bath and lots of brushing will bring a super shine to his coat! He's so handsome can't wait to see him ride!
I love that you are sharing his first hair cut.
He's so liking it too
He's such a beautiful horse.
Nettie
15:35 what a distinguished gentleman
Omgosh Shae, you did such an amazing job on Mushu 👍 it helped that he was so chill about the whole thing 😃 that's because he loves and trusts you so much ❤️ loved this video, he looks so beautiful. Blessings always ❤️🙌 Jennifer
Thank you!!!!
He turned out beautiful!!!! Love him so sweet!!!
Hes so cute. You definitely did the right thing clipping him. He'll be grateful for this clip😊
The Mushu looks so cute with the mustache!!🥹❤
She did very good, first passing over him with the motor on, so he knows it does'nt harm. I could see already people who payed a trimmer and they could not finish their job. Because mostly they don't like it at their legs and head. But mushu was a very calm boy.👍 It was realy time to clip him.😊
He looks stunning 👍 I'm probably in a minority because I don't like the moustache but I do love his colouring
Mushu looks so good with all that hair gone!!! Love his color!!!!
He did so great!!! He looks awesome and I know he will be so much cooler this summer! Great job!
Yes for sure! Thanks 😊
He was incredibly good! Only three and first clipping....I was amazed. He is true gentleman. I cannot wait to see the finished result. They always look so different after they are clipped.
Hes sooo good, what a little dream boat. I love the way you say "Gud boiy" sounds so cute. I cant belive how many blades she went through too. I live in the UK so we have lots of stunning Vannars so I definatly appreciate his quality xxx
Mushi with the funny mo, is very special and he's so lucky you found him !
He looks so much better clipped. And he was so chill.
First! I love how well you take care of your horses and do whats best for them!
I had a friend in Iowa who had several Vanners and they had to have their legs clipped every summer. Due to the heat and humidity, their feathers caused serious skin inflammation and lesions from the knees and hocks down. Their legs were swollen and scarred even with the hair off.
Yes we always keep and eye out for that! It can definitely cause issues. 💖
🤩🤩 Leslie, the left-handed clipper! What a stunning job you did on Mr. Mushu! 🤩🤩
She was amazing!
@Free Spirit Equestrian Love the way you use resources ~~ you get a professional, horse-loving clipper as you don't like to do that. I myself would be afraid of the buzzing ~~ this professional uses both hands though she favors the left.
A second view of this great vlog: I think that's related to which part of the horse she's trimming, like the feather or the booty. It is a specialty ~~ which hand to use for which body part. I'm a little dyslexic and sometimes reverse my left and my right.
Used to go to Super Cuts, but the hair stylist didn't know how to layer the hair and instead would cut a straight line. It turned out all zigzagged. Now there's a new name for your next equine, Ziggy or ZigZag. Kyle's good with names like Buzz Lightyear. Maybe a new theme for you, in addition to Disney names?! 😀
He's such a mommy's boy!! The way he looks at you😊❤
Mushu will look great and adorable I just know that
Oh my gosh mushu looks adorable and I love his vibe!❤
He seems to enjoy it
The white that you call mottling on Mushu's skin reminds me of powdered sugar ... No wonder he's so sweet! 💕
You can really see his form and hoe well shaped he is. Looks like he weighs less. I bet he feels so much better
Mushu liked the vibrating Messager. Little much on the face.. He is beautiful.
He is Happy.
Wow! He looks great and it must feel so much better!!!
Oh how pretty he is. The Dopsert is very proud of him.
Mushy is so cute and an absolute sweetheart
You guys are just too darn cute together. He must feel so awesome after that haircut see him gallop in the paddock is so beautiful❤❤
EEEEE!! I am sooo excited for when you start him under saddle! I can already see him being a student favourite
Wow! What a good boy he was throughout! I never knew a horse's coat could get that long...that was crazy! It was cool too that it was kinda like a reveal; like what IS under all that hair! He looks amazing. Thanks for sharing!
He is a gold star pony and looks so happy. I really enjoyed watching, thanks! ⭐️
Thank you!
He's amazing! Such a good boy! He looks gorgeous!❤
His feathers are really highlighted now. He is great.
I always shaved my hairy beast. Love them clean. I was surprised she didn’t use wide blades for the body. It is much faster.
Sorry, but the mustache is not my bag. If you like it, that is all that matters.
That was awesome and now he feels so much better!
We used to call whiskers on horses their " curb feelers" ( these rods that are springy that put on cars to tell them where the curb is at so you keep the proper distance from it lol) we had a gelding that would use his whiskers to barely touch the electric fence to see if it was on lol..( he loved to open all the stalls, then the main gate.. so we installed electric fence on the main gate. He learned to get close see if it was on..if it wasent..hed let himself and others out . But, he also used them to not bump into things in the dark. I think whiskers are cute
He looks so good. She did a great job shaving him. Love his mustache.
His expression 😂. Such a handsome boy.
I'm a hairdresser and she did a gorgeous job
That was wonderful. He knows he looks so good now that he is shaved I can see him the way he was holding his head with pride.❤
Oh my goodness Mushu is soo unique with his mustash and chin hairs ❣️🤩🥰💫✨💫🫶
He did soooo good!!I wanna watch it again!!
