I hose my dude off whenever he gets sweaty unless it’s too cold (we do have hot water at the barn though, thankfully).
He’s an itchy guy (appaloosa with a myriad of skin weirdness) in the summer, so I will routinely wash him with EQyss Micro-Tek shampoo all over maybe once every few weeks. It really seems to help soothe his skin and coat…he genuinely seems to love his bath and it leaves him shiny and happy.
Other than that, I use EQyss Premier shampoo on his mane and tail (and sometimes socks) whenever I feel like they need it (usually every other time he gets a Micro-Tek bath).
I brush him daily: rubber curry all over (oh the faces he pulls…he loves it), medium dandy brush all over, then super soft body brush all over. He gets Micro-Tek spray on legs and belly if he’s gotten too itchy/bumpy/scabby (which hopefully won’t happen this year as he’s in a stall during the day now), and Premier spray in mane and tail for softness and hydration.
He smells like a bouquet of flowers by the time we’re done, LOL.
