The pick is used to clean out the hooves.  You start at the heel and move from heel to toe.  The pick cleans out rocks and dirt.  By doing this your ride is even and the horse is more comfortable.

   The dandy brush is used second in the brush order.  You use this brush to clean away dirt mud and sweat marks.  This is a harsh brush so don't use it near the head.  Only use it on the tougher areas and especially the legs.  When you are brushing the legs and hocks hold the tail to one side so you won't get kicked.  Never use the dandy brush on the tail it will break the hair which take many months to grow back.

     The curry comb is used to clean up clumps of mud stuck in the horse's coat.  To use this you would brush in a circular motion and quick strokes.  

    Use the body brush for a deeper grooming.  To use this brush you work your way from head to tail.  Brush in firm, sweeping strokes in the same direction as the hair is grown. Then brush under the main.  Then the main and tail.  When brushing the tail stand slightly to the side of the horse incase it kicks.  Then brush the head. 

  Use a damp water brush to clean off the hooves.  Dry them off, and apply hoof oil with a brush applicator.  Put the oil all around the horn.  Also put it on and into the coronet and heel.
