Is Your Horse Dirty or Do You Just Not Groom Them Properly? On this episode of the Adulting with Horses podcast, we talk an extraordinary amount about manes. We all know we have strong opinions, but Natalie publicly shames Heather for Ferrous's wild hair! Rude. Heather's horses are just slackers and it's not her fault (or so she says). Ferrous goes lame but attends a pony party at the barn, and Ben is a very naughty boy. Do you like horse movies?
