Effol Shampoo Brush for Horses & Hoof Cleaning
Description
Effol Shampoo Brush - Silent Washing Brush for Horses
The Effol Shampoo Brush is a hand-held grooming brush designed for rubbing shampoo and liquids into a horse's coat, and it can also be used for cleaning hooves. It is best for riders and grooms who want a quieter, tidier way to bath a horse, and it is particularly well suited to sensitive horses that dislike noise and fuss at wash time.
Because the brush does the rubbing for you, the shampoo is spread evenly through the hair instead of sitting on top of it, and your sleeves stay out of the suds. It is a simple, low-cost addition to the grooming kit that earns its place all year round.
