The Best Mane and Tail Brush for Horses and Ponies Too

Need a good Mane and Tail Brush? Tired of broken bristles and tangled Manes and Tails? Then read on to find out about the perfect Mane and Tail Brush.

My daughter's pony has lots and lots of hair. So, when we went shopping for her first set of brushes she insisted that she needed a large vent type brush. I showed her the little metal hair comb that was sturdy, nicely priced and it was similar to the one that I had used most of my life. She pointed out that all of my horses had manes and tails on the thin side and it would never work for her pony.  I agreed and purchased the large brush.  However, in just a few weeks time, this new brush had missing bristles and it was full of beautiful pony hair. Then one day a friend offered to let my daughter try her Oster Mane and Tail Brush. The difference was amazing. I purchased one right away.

Oster Mane and Tail Brush Available in Blue and Pink

After months of using the Oster Mane and Tail Brush it never lost a bristle and was never full of hair. I tried it a few times on my horse and loved it. I loved it so much, that I bought my very own. We purchased these brushes in 2007 and have never had to replace them.

The Oster Mane and Tail Brush is the perfect brush no matter what type of mane and tail your horse has. This brush has a perfectly designed handle for comfort and control. The brushing bristles are strong but flexible and designed for multi-directional brushing resulting in no broken brush bristles, less tangles and more comfort for your horse. This is the only mane and tail brush that you will ever need. It is more expensive than other brands but it is worth every penny. We love our Oster Equine Mane and Tail Brushes.

Happy Grooming!

The Best Hoof Pick for Horses and Ponies Too

All Hoof Picks Are Not Created Equal!

When my daughter got her pony we went shopping for her first set of brushes. She wanted an expensive Oster grooming kit. I thought that the set was over priced and proceeded to show her how the less expensive brushes and tools were just as nice and color coordinated. Besides, I used them all my life and they worked fine for me.

After a few months of her struggling to pick her pony's hooves a friend offered to let her use her Oster Hoof Pick. 

Oster Equine Hoof Pick ~ Available in Pink and Blue

We have been using the Oster Equine Hoof Pick since 2007.  This hoof pick is perfect in every way. It has a perfectly designed comfort handle, that offers the correct amount of leverage and padding, so that you never strain or tire when picking hooves. The picking instrument has a narrow but blunt edge and is great for cleaning out the worst mud, rocks and dirt.Well, I saw that it was much easier for her and so I purchased her one. A few months later I misplaced my, trusty less than a dollar, hoof pick and borrowed my daughter's Oster hoof pick. Okay, I was floored at the difference. It took me seconds to clean my horse's hooves and they were so much cleaner. I finally admitted that I was wrong and purchased my very own.

At one point we misplaced one of our Oster hoof picks. I thought I would try one of the other similar brands but it was not the same. I tried a few more brands but the handles were off and the picking instruments were not shaped correctly. Eventually I gave in and purchased another. This is one item that is a must for all horse and pony owners.

Happy Picking,
