Hello, I'm after a bit of advice! I'm going to be clipping my boy for the first time this year (he's 6 now and this will be his first winter of being worked and is getting very hairy!) I'm only a one pony owner and I looked around to see if someone did clipping services in Cardiff but I can't find anyone. I've researched clippers and think I'll go for the Heiniger progress but they're £240 . I may only clip him once this year so it seems a hefty investment. I'm wondering whether anyone on here may know of someone who may be able to clip my boy or failing that has anyone ever offered their services to clip other horses/ponies to recoup some of the money spent on the clippers? I've clipped horses in the past from fallebella's to Hunters so I've got experience under my belt. I'm just not sure what to do for the best.. It's a lot of money for one clip Any ideas? Thanks!
