"Hi, I'm Mara Keith-Hunter for Expert Village. Today I would be talking about how to clip a horse. So the first thing we are going to clip is going to his muzzle. I start by turning the clippers on making sure he is comfortable. Then we would start to move in. So with the muzzle you can really get a closer shave as you like and you want to make sure that you work all around, all the way up to those long hairs end. We are also going to get the bottom of the muzzle and you would notice that I'm using the clippers so they would lay flat against his muzzle rather then coming down. This is going to give us a closer smoother shave. You can even if your horse would let you get right inside his muzzle, inside his nostrils and have that very close shave inside of there. "
