Tack Routine

1. Secure to a sturdy object with a quick release knot

2. Use rubber curry comb to remove all mud spots, stimulate blood circulation, etc (gently over his back because a lack of muscling can cause soreness if it is rubbed too hard)

3. Use soft rubber curry comb to curry his face

4. Use mane and tail comb to brush out mane and tail (with detangler if necessary)

5. Use medium bristle brush to lay the hair flat and remove obvious dirt (skipping dandy brush because it is too rough and causes him discomfort)

6. Use finishing brush to remove dust and polish the coat

7. Use small finishing brush to remove dust on his face

8. Pick out all four feet (work on responsiveness and desensitization of back legs)

9. Spray with fly spray if necessary

11. Attach breastplate to saddle Dee rings and around the girth (if jumping)

12. Loosely tighten girth
