Gardening gloves for loosening pony fur

[Debbie]

Blossom says...that those neat gloves you get for pulling weeds in the garden are FAR better put to use rubbing a pony ! LOL

Hubby lovingly bought me a pair last night, and I went out to go pull weeds in Blossom's field (never ending that!). Of course she wanted to see if they were edible yep, green gloves. As soon as she found out how nice they felt, you should have seen the lip twitching and contortions

I even got a fair amount of hair to loosen up and come out of her forehead! I've been trying everything for that, and nothing's budged it, or not been soft enough and Blossom was in heaven. May have to buy a second pair just for her.

Updated to show Blossom's pair....PINK of course

Lucky Blossom getting such a lovely massage. What a good idea to use gardening gloves - I will try mine on my 3 and see what they think.

Perhaps Blossom could have a word with Knight about how lovely a good grooming is. He only puts up with it if he's got a haynet. Otherwise he's impatient, ready to get going. Typical boy.

Knight says "But I'm a BOY!!! Manly man that he is, I doubt he wants foo fooing, but even Knight might stand still for a decent scratchy rub from these ....sans haynet! ;D

I agree, our dogs love the rubber marigolds

[Debbie]

I've been using these, and have to say, I love it!!! I don't have to grip anything, so there's less wear and tear on the tendons in my hand. Which means I can keep rubbing and grooming on Blossom without the pins and needles. The gloves are flexible, and gentle, so I can get all over her body, and easily into armpits and inner thighs where the skin is thinner. And one of the best perks is that my hands stay clean! Before I was having to do some serious scrub up after grooming Blossom.

All in all Blossom and I highly recommend these gardening gloves!

mmm, I have used marigolds to get hair out too! gardening gloves, not thought of that one, but looking at my garden why would I?
