- Based on my last video when I scratched Joka and took a clump of fur off of her, I got requests to brush her out properly. So there that is!

Joka's living her best life. Eating while getting scratches, massage....that's a lot of hair!
Kinda mesmerizing
The fluffy icelandic is a lot less fluffy now. 😂 The amount of hair that came off is amazing. The birds will love that for their nests.
I bet so too ☺️
Googled - The word curry has been around for 800 years or so and means “to rub down or groom a horse.” It comes from the French word correier,which means to put order to, prepare or arrange. This makes perfect sense as to why it's called the curry comb because we are rearranging the horse's hair into a more ideal direction.
Thank you. I was going to look it up, and you already did it for us. Merci beau coup.
ah! thanks! I appreciate that.
TFS! I never knew that and always wondered. Carrier - to put order to, prepare, arrange. Wonderful.
LOL Joka is so chill. "A little more off the back, Graeme. Thank you" This was fun to watch. A great way to start off my work day. But now my nose is itching! lol
Joka seamed to be really enjoying her shedding session.Her co grooming buddies will also appreciate not getting a mouth full of hair next time they are grooming each other.
Lol it's a Joka hair and massage day! I can tell she's just loving it ❤️
Yeah spa day for Joka.
That’s a lot of hair from a darn adorable pony!
That fur will make warm baby bird blankets. Recycling fur, a win win. Watching is oddly satisfying, very relaxing.
I loved to brush horses when I was a kid, but I don't know anyone with any now. I'm just watching with a smile, drinking my coffee. Remembering exactly how messy the hair is and how dirty my hands got, but it was so satisfying. I'm sure it feels great. Such a beautiful fluffer.
It's so funny how we seem to be working for our pets. I bet the ETs are thinking, who's really in charge down here ?!!LOL😄
They know it's the cats who are really in charge on this planet. Every cat owner knows this.
My horse loved having that done. His nose would twitch all the time. He got grumpy when I stopped. I did the same thing. Made a huge pile of hair in the corner of the field and many birds flew in to retrieve some x
Need a film for each horse x
Wow! She had tons come off! Be advised, do not wear lip balm when it’s shedding season 😂😂😂
It really makes a difference. She gorgeous again.
Very satisfying! This was also A great video to appreciate Joka‘s features, such as her leg feathers, dorsal stripe, and magnificent tail! Thank you Graeme!
so satisfying I loved brushing my horses
Oh! She is loving that!! So will her horse friends that help groom her🤣😂❤️
Oh I can watch this all day! 😄
Spa day lol snacks and good brushings. Man the hair is she sheds WOW lol
Oh ,so much hair!
It's a spa day for sweet Joka.
She loves the scratches 🐴🥰
Nice to see Joka get a good scrubby scrub!
She sure enjoyed her massage ❤
It was very satisfying to watch and I'm sure it was satisfying for Joka too. For a moment she looked like she was going to nod off standing with her head down and hay in her mouth ;)
I really enjoy brushing horses that shed their winter coat. De-shedding is such a satisfying activity, to see all the old stuff come out ! And I am sure the horses really enjoy it too, it's itchy and hot. Joka looked relaxed and content, and it was very relaxing to watch 😊
Joka was very, very hairy. Now, maybe Luke will be more inclined to co-groom with Joka again.
Really enjoyed the furnado, thanks so much! Little floof just enjoying the attention. 😄
That was SOOOOO satisfying!!!!!🤗 I could totally brush the horses!! Looks like fun!!!!🤭
Wow! I bet a lot of birds are happy with all that nesting material! That must feel so good for Joka. Even her ears are furry!
That must feel so good to her.
You could start a Patreon and give folks the de-shedding videos of all the rest of the horses! They are so satisfying and calming to watch!
I do have a Patreon 😊
I always forget just how much fur she sheds after winter! It's gotta feel good to get all the itchy hair out, and she is definitely not complaining
I just love Joka. She doesnt have to say a word bc her eyes and countenance say it all. I love watching her run. I find her beautiful. She was watching you brush her with appreciation in her eyes. I could watch her all day.
Thank you. I did enjoy watching this. She looks so much better. She's so loveable.
I've never seen anyone else leave the shed fur for the birds! I have always done that and everyone said I was nuts and just making a big mess
What a satisfying video. The birds are going to love all that fluff. Thanks
So satisfying and soothing to watch and listen. She is so cute and unbothered.
That was a lot of nesting material for the birds. God set it up perfectly for shedding that supplies soft linings for bird's nests.
WOW! That is a lot of hair. Looks like a good workout for you also, not that you need it. She will not get cold if you have more bitter weather will she? I love her facial expressions when you hit a good spot!🥰
AAH!!! I really enjoy!!! To see this.Thank you for Charing!!😁😊🙃😋
😳😳😳That is a lot of hair! Save some of that wonderful Joka floof and make Zeus a little friend, lol😊 I'm thinking Nordic horses and dogs have more undercoat than some other breeds. My Norwegian Elkhound had lots of under floof for the birds. Would be interesting to see how much comes off Gracie. Thanks for sharing the Joka "salon" visit...I guess the tip jar would be filled with the love of a good horse...best tip to have.🥰
Never ending story 😆🤣
Yes yes, I did very much enjoy watching that. It is (as yet) an unfulfilled ambition of mine to groom a horse. Though I live in the New Forest (UK) where 4500 ponies roam freely you can’t touch them! 😍🐎.
Awe she looks so pretty
Wow she has a good winter coat!!
Keep the hair for the birds🕊️ the nesting season is coming.. Joka doesn't care she keeps eating! But she loves the scratching with the brush! In Iceland, they have a very thick coat in the long winter... You have a lot of traffic today.
Yes, usually I apply a filter that blocks out the noise of the traffic, but when I did that it also removed the sound of the brushing and it just felt weird.. So in this one you get both. It also was a time of the day that traffic was a bit busy from school pickup etc.
@@StableHorseTraining thank you for revealing your secret! because for quite a while I thought you had less traffic than a couple of years ago! That's great for us but still bad for you in real life. Here is the same. Traffic has drastically increased unfortunately covering the birds' gossips at certain times of the day! Anyway, thank you because hearing the noise of the brush is great!
That was so satisfying to watch!
Hey Graeme, you missed a spot. Lol, just kidding..
It's a bit like ASMR watching her enjoy her brushing even though I know how much work it is. She was definitely loving it though.
Your horse has trained you well!
I love this. I could spend hours giving scratches and brushings. You're going to need to vacuum yourself. LoL The birds are going to have nice floofy nests.
hi from australia i love these videos cheers
David will think he has a new horse !!
So satisfying!! Joka says "thank you!"
Hello from the Netherlands 🇳🇱 I wish it was this easy to brush my cat.
Hello!
you could knit a Joka out of her hair
There’s going to be lots of warm nests 😁
A spa day AND lunch …. What more could a girl want ! 💕🤣👍
A sure sign of spring coming when the fur starts flying. Not sure if that is true or anecdotal, but the two always seem to correlate. 🤣
When the days get longer and a bit warmer they naturally shed off their hair.
It's called a curry brush because it's shaped like a curry comb but with rubber teeth so you can't harm the skin. I love 'em. I bet that felt wonderful to her.
You should check the comments for the answer as to why it's called a curry comb. It's interesting!
Beautiful horse.
thank you!
That was enough hair for a whole extra pony!
So glad you did this for Joka ☺ I was hoping you would video it. Very satisfying to watch! She is one fluffy monkey. She thanks you and we thank you❤
There's an amazing deshedding tool called the Equigroomer! It wss originally made for horses but can be used on dogs and cats also. It gets rid of undercoat without irritating skin or pulling coat. All animals I've seen being groomed with it have thoroughly enjoyed it! Maybe something to check out? :D
ah yes, the heavily overpriced and glorified piece of wood with a hacksaw blade embedded in it. Got it as a gift from somebody that loved it, used it once, never again.
@@StableHorseTraining Hahah alright! It was pretty cheap where I got it, and worked well. Glad to know you got it for free since it seems you really didn’t like it.
May I ask why? Did the horses seem to not enjoy it (i remember you saying some deshedding tools can be a little uncomfortable for horses at first) or did it simply not work as well as you wanted it to? ^^
It pulls the hair out
@@StableHorseTraining Strange, the very thing it was made not to do. Oh well, glad there are other options out there, eh?
The sharper the tines with more serrations and "hooks" the more it pulls hair out. You can see it in the video on their website too. It doesn't matter to me, I don't care and am not personally invested either way, it's just not something I want to use on my horses.
WOW! I bet she lost 5 pounds of hair. Lookin good!
That looks so therapeutic... I'd love a go....
She loves what you are doing to her I bet it felt good too
LOL - Joka much less furry, you much more furry. Wow. Springtime.
You have a beautiful horse!
Spoiled Joka :) That was rather satisfying :)
Yeh. Wondered if David cooked him dinner or something for pay back.
You should just carry that around with you for when the horses want scratches. ❤️
He does...
Like ASMR so soothing to watch. You could do a regular series of these with each horse and I would watch for sure. ❤
Looks like you might need some brushing down after the amount of fluff that clung to you, Graeme! LOL
Thanks this was satisfying 😅 i bet she enjoyed it!
Looks like she lost a little weight there! 😆
They are great on German shepherds also.
Or Labrador Retrievers!
That was some extra workout, good job!
Using the hand brush in the second half looks like you're washing a car or something XD
That's got to feel so good to Joka! It's exhausting getting it all off when they blow their winter coat. You think you've done an amazing job and the next day there's still more! Great for them though since you're stimulating blood flow and natural oils to the skin.
Horses Are fur babies 🤗
I learned everything about horses,ponies and mini horses from the BC Canada Therapeutic Riding Centre but it has been several years since I have been around them and riding them,so I am rusty and probably need a refresher course if you know what I mean
Just being around horses,hands on therapy and listening to them eating their grain,hay,grazing on the grass,riding them is so therapeutic,unfortunately I can't get equine therapy or ride them where I live because to get equine therapy,etc is really expensive that I cannot afford,I am legally blind with limited vision and I know that if there is a will and a way I can and will find a way to get fit to ride,and my goal is to work on my dream of riding an Icelandic horse in the near future,maybe lease a horse to ride,take care of and handle by myself and I am capable of doing that when I have the money to do that
😮 what a furr baby
Hey, dont forget her lovely thick tail.? 👍🐴
Unbelievable - it looks like you are shaving her! It`s still winter there in Canada so will it grow long again and fast??
❤❤❤ASMR❤❤❤ thanks for this!
Every year, I find myself wondering where in the devil they were hiding all this hair! My horse is not nearly as shaggy as Yoka, but he always sheds off a huge amount of hair in the Spring.
And I don't know if eating hair is harmful, but I always try to avoid this sort of brushing in the area where the horse is eating from the hay pile. Seems like the hair could cause some digestive problems. I am just going with my 'feelings' on that one, so ignore it if you disagree.
I'm not going to "disagree" but I can say without a doubt that I've never seen any problems with horses that cogroom or groom themselves and I have also never heard of it being an issue. They don't get hairballs like cats and their intestines are huge and pass a lot of material. So, while it's probably a bit better in some way to make sure it doesn't fall in their food (I don't think it did here), it shouldn't make much of a difference.
👍🐎❤❤😄

Even though this video was uploaded on you tube 1 year ago I love this video and I enjoyed watching it.The Icelandic horse is my favorite horse breed,just the right size for me to ride,I am 4'7".I have not ridden an Icelandic Horse and it would be nice to ride one .Your Icelandic horse is really beautiful and I love the color of your horse's coat.What are they like to own,take care of and ride?
I don't think there is any difference in horse breeds to care for, it all depends on how they were brought up and then subsequently trained.
You really want to be up wind from that or you end up wearing Yoka fur !
I wonder if the birds have a favorite horse hair to get for their rest.
They like the fluffy undercoat of cold climate horses for stuffing their mattress and the smoother longer hairs for the bed sheets 😉
I offered last year, but if you’ll ship some to me I’ll buy it. I’m a fiber artist 😊
I think I was worried about it not being a shippable item... I'll have to look into it
Oh that wld be cool to see. Please show us samples.
@@pennywebb867 unfortunately there is no way to show images here. I have a FB page though
@@joniatoms9798 I'm not on Facebook myself but if you'll give me your "address", I will check it out. Thx
@@StableHorseTraining ok thank you!
How often does she need to be de-shedded? Just curious. Thank you.🐴
Never
She looks. like a sorrel or chestnut Icelandic Horse mare.What is her name,age and height in hh?
For a long time, I always thought horses skin was kinda like leather and not fur.
That's a whole lot of fur. Does it feel good to her to be brushed?
I imagine so, they come to me for it
Who's next.. will be watching.. lol ☺️🙋 bye.
People would pay YOU $ to groom and love on your horses. Personally no interest in riding due to pain issues but would be ecstatic be around horses with manners.
Graeme, isn't it a lil too early to be taking off her winter coat? Maybe next month? Winter & cold isn't over yet. I thought that's why the like to roll in the snow & mud is to take it off on their own. I don't mess with our mares winter coat until the weather starts warming up at night in the 35-40's. IDK..I don;t want to take their winter coats off too early, I still have mine on.(Lower Michigan)You know A LOT more about horses than I do!! God Bless
The only hair that was coming off was already coming off as I'm not pulling it out nor shaving her either. Feel free to do as you feel best for your horses but the horses here are ok. I certainly wouldn't make a video of me doing something to a horse that was detrimental to them and be super proud of it. What kind of person would that make me?
