YAY EMMA'S BACK.. Love love love seeing you with your hairy-hooved family. The new additions look fantastic.. Sparrow is full of sass, I think she's fabulous as are all the others.. Looking forward to meeting any new hairy-hounds too. Much love to you, Julian, and the whole Furry/Hairy 4 legged family too, from Wales.
Emma for white tails use liquid green soap. The one you use for cleaning floors etc. Its non toxic and not harming animal or nature. Put it in a bucket with luke warm water. And soak a bit then wash. Pee stains dissapear as by magic.
Welcome back Emma, I really missed you and your pony~pup gang! Your new silver~dapple Shetlands look so relaxed it’s like they’ve bonded and have been with you a while … Beautiful!
Oh goodness, it's lovely to hear from you. I was so hoping you hadn't had an injury or setback and am delighted to hear it's been some exciting and all consuming project. Looking forward to hearing about it when you can share.
Oh! Best tail stain tip.. use a bottle of ‘household vinegar’ in a bucket of water and soak it. And then wash as preferred. The vinegar will get the stains out. It’s not the vinegar for consumption but one for cleaning the house. Not sure you have that in the UK
love to hear you chat about how you are able to afford so many animals, for most of us it's a pipe dream and I doubt the work covers the costs of looking after them all.
Hey Emma, I really really missed you and all your teams!! I love you and all the horses and especially Jeremy and all the help and kindness he gives all the animals. If the whole world where like you, the world would be a very nice place to live❤
Today I not only used the purple shampoo, but then followed that with a purple HAIR MASK made for blond and silver hair to remove brassiness. It made loads of difference! Came out several shades lighter. One more go and I think it will be the exact same color as the top of the tail. You have to leave the hair mask in for 10 minutes before rinsing but it's worth the time!
Hi Emma, I had a silver dapple as a kid, a little stallion, and I rode him everywhere, he was my favorite of all time. They are the most beautiful of all the colors. I truly hope you have fun with your beautiful team, looking forward to seeing more videos.
A fab vlog Emma. Back in the early sixties, my Aunt bought a pony mare, welsh X, who was the same colour, but with no dapples. She had an identically coloured daughter, who eventually also had a similar daughter. They were known, by us, as liver chestnuts, and were pretty rare at that time, in Norfolk! (UK).
I had a silver dapple pony growing up. He was seriously neglected so we managed to talk the owner to give him up. We called him Chocolate. When I heard you have one named Sparrow, Wren would be adorable for one and other bird names! They are so adorable! I also keep a rain sheet on my Thoroughbred to keep him clean. I have a neurological disease and have been out of remission for almost 2 years due to Covid. I’m just getting out of the wheelchair and on my feet so my work ability is really under par. I totally get trying to keep your work to a minimum. They are stunning! I’m so glad I found your channel. 😊
They came right up and then they are following you around! Saw the little clip the other day, love the color of the new ponies. Six pony hitch eventually would be interesting. I'm guessing the first view of Jeremy's trip was something to do with a ferry. Best wishes and thank you for the news.
I'm not sure about mare pee, but I have to deal with cat and house rabbit litterboxes, which both pee high amounts of ammonia, and vinegar seems to take it out like a charm without being harmful. Maybe there's some kind of mixture that would work nice with soap?
Sooo nice to see you and your beautiful horsies. I always love watching your videos and so hoping for PLENTY more☺️. I was thinking……. Margo and Darcy (prima ballerinas). Sparrow and Robin (our own little birdies). (Poking my neb in here😍. Anyone else who needs a name cd go into the groups……. Nina, Rudolf etc….. but whatever their names…..they are fabulous. As you can tell….’ I love them’. Good luck with everything😍.
You have been missed, but Im sure you've been having a great time doing all the things you love, so its great to see you back. Looking forward to the ponies next chapter in their lives with you. This will be one stunning team!
Like most things prevention is better than cure! I love my tail bag. It's lasted me years and my mares tail has never looked better. The staining doesn't look too bad on yours. Maybe one round of vinegar and baking powder will brighten them? I use a tailgator, just make sure you don't put a wet tail into it :)
I second using TailGator Tail Bags! I would wash & dry tails and bag them up as soon as the flies disappeared and use them continually all winter through spring until the flies came back. Really reduced the amount of work to keep them clean AND they had more tail in the spring to swat & swish with. TailGator’s are waterproof and breathable. Super helpful product that lasts a long time!
So nice to see you again, and meet the new team and the new dogs! The new team are adorable, you said they were currently a bit wild, but they were all so calm and content during the vlog!!
Thrilled to find your channel! We called our silver dapple Shetland, ‘Dapple Dan’ & he was gorgeous with striking dapples once his winter coat shed out. Getting the stable stains out of white tails was always a pain, so I agree with the previous commenter about the use of tail bags for prevention, as long as no one picks up the annoying habit of chewing on their mates’ tails. Once clean, Showsheen is an excellent conditioner/polish which seals each hair thus keeping it clean.
Look at them all follow you like puppy dogs! Thank you for enlightening us all. You have been missed. Sparrow needs a new name. I like Hannah myself. You see were adopting a little Chihuahua tomorrow as today she is being spayed and her name now is Honey Bunn, but I always call my hubby that name so that would be very confusing, and he came home from church and said how about the name Hannah? That is a lovely name so Hannah it is.
Missed you=glad to see you in full swing with your beloved critters Deb and 12 kitties ! gorgeous Husky malamute wolf Sky-a girl and 3 lovely bay mares all with a bit only of Percheron-1with morgan 1 with running quarter horse 1 with TB and Dutch WB
When I first saw the picture in the video suggestions of these beautiful ponies, I immediately thought "Poly"!!! "Poly" was a Shetland pony of just this colour - I believe - who starred in several TV series in the 1960s and 70s too, I believe. These were French series, made after a story by the French children's author Cecile Aubry, who also wrote the perhaps in Britain much more famous story made into several TV series too of "Belle And Sebastian", starring a Pyrenean Mountain bitch and a little boy. In both series Aubry's young son Mehdi starred. He had or has a Moroccan name, because she was or is married to a Moroccan Prince. In that TV series, Poly, short for "Polisson", as becomes apparent in the title song and meaning mischievous one, is rescued from a travelling circus by a little boy, who then hides Poly in the nearby woods and enlists the help of his village friends. A lovely story, which I have never forgotten! So, of course, I had to watch this video!
Emma so good to see you again, have missed hearing about your escapades. Lovely to meet your new tribe and they appear to be characterful too. Regarding whitening their tails, I wonder if using Bicarbonate of Soda might work?! A natural product for whitening & general stain removal, so I guess it would be animal safe. First thought would be laundry Oxi- Clean but not sure if that would be suitable for animals tails 😬. What do Shire Horse owners use for whitening their feathers? Good luck anyway. I look forward to seeing more on your channel. Best regards Jenni.
Em it’s great to see you back we have missed you and your fur babies ❤ Your new members to the team are adorable ! Wow two days drive to Sweden !!!! That takes some doing lol 😂 Glad you got them back before the strikes . Ps hope Albert and Ernie are well ? 🫶😘
I use tar schampoo and NAF Show Off on my piebald mare. The tar schampoo really takes the stains out. I use both Ekholms Prob tar schampoo and a quite cheap Finnish tar schampoo from Lidl as the Prob schampoo is a bit in the pricey side when you wash often. The only thing is that everyone in about 20 miles can smell the tar on me for like two days after 😂😂
Hello Emma. Love your channel and all your ponies. Back in the mists of time I used to have a pair of Dartmoor driving ponies, such fun. But please can you tell me where you got that marvellous hot water maker, I've got to get me one of those!!! All that carrying buckets of water from the utility sink to the stable yard is time consuming and exhausting. Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing how the new team progresses. All the best, from Georgina, in Snowdonia.
Gorgeous group of ponies but I couldn't handle the white manes and tails 😂😂 my black and smokey black are difficult enough and they are rugged full time too while they are being prepped for shows! It's an Australian brand but the Hairy Pony double strength shampoo works really really well and it doesn't strip all the oil out of the tails. The other that really helps with the mares and fillies (they are so gross!!) is using a weatherproof tie/velcro in tail bag. This stops the pee from soaking into their tails and keeps the mud out for both boys and girls.
We missed you!. I was so excited to see a new post rom you. Anything i can think of for whitening mightnjot be good for horses, likenthe pet stain remover or oxiclean... maybe peroxide? Juts on the end of the tail of course, so no skin contact.
Mineral oil the tails and legs. It will soak in and look horrible for about 3 days BUT the pee and dirt will drip down and out and they will come out brilliant white and soft. Plus the oil acts like weather proofing for the skin and hooves(my two boys are half Clydesdale so I oil the legs and feathers once a week in the spring) We've used vegetable oil before on stabled horses, I fear pastured horses would eat the tails maybe😮
For stained tails try baking soda, vinegar and shampoo make into a paste apply and rub in. I let it it sit before shampooing it out. I use this on my miniature schnauzer’s beard which is silver and gets stained from his food. Hope it works!
Hi Emma. Try baking soda or white vinegar for the urine stains. I can't tell you if it works as I don't have horses but at least it's natural. Great to have you back.
Washing Clydesdale teams has taught me a few tips. As you know, Clydedales have white feathers that get so muddy or pee stained!! Yes warm water and high pressure if possible. Shampoo. First shampoo use Head and Shoulders. It really gets dirt and stains out. Slaver it on and let it sit for 5 mins. Let the Shampoo do its work. Rinse Repeat but this time, scrub at the stain usually at the end of the tail or in the horses feathers. Rinse well. For white hair, the last shampoo use purple shampoo. Let it sit for 5 mins and really rinse out well. It will still look stained whilst wet but once if is dry it will be really clean. Then, get some show sheen and spray it into the hair. Not only will it detangle the hair but it will kind of put a protection on the hair and will make it easier to clean next time. If you wanted to you could make little main plait and tail bags out of shower curtains. Soft but kind of water repellant. Tie them on to protect. They look strange though. Try it and let me know how it works !
You might ask a hair dresser how they would lift the yellow out. True they are trained in human hair but they may know some tricks. The only tip I know is to use blueing as a rinse. It is an old fashioned laundry product that is still used to get the yellow tinge out of whites. It is actually a weak blue tint dye that counters the yellow. It was used extensively in the 50s and 60s by ladies wanting to get the yellow tinge out of their gray/white hair and have lovely silver locks.
So glad you are back and looking so well and full of energy. Looking forward to the next leg of the always interesting journey. Greetings from South Australia 🇦🇺
Have you thought of platting there tails , and putting a sock cover over the top of plat, like they do in America, not sure what the sock cover is called , just a suggestion
How beautiful they are and how well behaved, considering all but one had never seen a shower or had their tails washed before and most of them hadn't been tied up! They must trust you very well already.
Oh my goodness! I have a silver dapple driving pony! I love his coloring and can only imagine the joy of multiples. What a wonderful surprise, so glad you're back!
I don’t have experience with white tails but I have lots with shire horses with white feathers - which is probably worse! There are three steps:- Step 1 - washing. We used mild laundry flakes - the type for hand washing woollens. Mixed up with warm water in a bucket. Washing up liquid added directly to the hair for stubborn stains. Step 2 - quick drying. We used sawdust (not redwood of course). Rub it into the wet hair and shake it off back into the bucket or trug. It all comes out in about a minute as the hair dries and can be used again. Step 3 - protect the hair from staining. We used a cream made from vegetable oil and sulphur powder. It had a consistency somewhere between mayo and salad cream. The sulphur powder was used to prevent mud fever so you wouldn’t need that. I’m not sure if oil on its own would be too thin though. Maybe experiment - add a bit of raw talc or something similar - it needs to be something that they’re not keen on eating yet won’t harm them if they do. It was rubbed into the hair and left until the next wash. We didn’t usually bother with this step if we were washing them every day. It prevents staining, works like a conditioner and washes out like a dream. Hope this helps xx
I have team of commercial Clydesdales and that sounds like something I should try! I use "Head and Shoulders" two washes then purple shampoo last wash then show sheen. Being in Australia, the saw dust here stains. I will try your laundry flakes idea!
@@Vee-zx6eh That’s interesting. We had one Clydesdale and it worked equally well on him. I can’t take credit for the system though - I got it from a wonderful man who had worked brewery horses in England and used to drive our top team at shows. The third step is the one that made the biggest difference. I guess you don’t have problems with mud fever but stopping the staining from getting hold is key. I know some use talcum powder instead of sawdust for drying. I never tried it though because using this system there weren’t any stains needing to be covered up and, in my opinion, sawdust gives a more natural look - and we consistently won! 😀 All the best!
I don't know if you can get Washbar solid shampoo from NZ or Bee Clean Naturally White shampoo bar for horse and hound but they have essential oils and are amazing at getting our grubby Connemara's tail clean! ❤️🦄☘️
100% agree with the gelding and have them enjoy the herd. And yes it always feels regretful at moments. I have that with both my boys. But I also see how happy they are. Especially my youngest he’s so about meeting other horses. Anyway.. stunning silver dapple team!
Good to have you back here, Emma. We missed seeing your shenanigans!
Welcome back! It's great to see you and the new additions to your family, they are adorable. Thanks for the video.
Thank you so much!
Really looking forward to watching this long vid! Happy Easter to Emma and family and to all subscribers 🐎💚😘

Dear Emma
I have missed you and your most beautiful animal family. A joy that you are back. Happy Easter! He is risen!❤
Thank you! You too!
What a treat indeed! Wonderful group of ponies, can’t wait to go along for the ride. Looking forward to meeting all the doggies too.
Fabulous beyond words to see Emma and the gang ❤❤❤
They are so cute! Very nice patient little ponies getting their tails washed in the spring sunshine.
Emma for white tails use liquid green soap. The one you use for cleaning floors etc. Its non toxic and not harming animal or nature. Put it in a bucket with luke warm water. And soak a bit then wash. Pee stains dissapear as by magic.
Thank you for this tip!!! I will try it. Greetings from the Netherlands

Thank you, I will
Oh goodness, it's lovely to hear from you. I was so hoping you hadn't had an injury or setback and am delighted to hear it's been some exciting and all consuming project. Looking forward to hearing about it when you can share.
My goodness, I feel like I’ve just died and gone to Thelwell heaven watching these scruffy, adorable wee ponies!! ❤️❤️❤️
Oh! Best tail stain tip.. use a bottle of ‘household vinegar’ in a bucket of water and soak it. And then wash as preferred. The vinegar will get the stains out. It’s not the vinegar for consumption but one for cleaning the house. Not sure you have that in the UK

Just got to say …I love your life ….how wonderful to be with all those cuties everyday.🌻🐴🌻
Wonderful to see you back!❤🥰🇨🇦
They are beautiful! You are such horse charmer.... I love the back and white horse markings. Just fantastic!!
They are adorable but better still they adore and trust you Emma.
Hey Emma, I really really missed you and all your teams!! I love you and all the horses and especially Jeremy and all the help and kindness he gives all the animals. If the whole world where like you, the world would be a very nice place to live❤

It's nice to see you out and about with a new team. They are beautiful! Can't wait for more videos of your adventures!! Thank you!
I’m so glad you showed up on my feed today! This was a great informative video. Looking forward to your future work. 🥰 (Minnetonka, Minnesota USA)
Love your new team,such a gorgeous colour.Great explanation for safe tying up of ponies.
I had a silver dapple pony growing up. He was seriously neglected so we managed to talk the owner to give him up. We called him Chocolate. When I heard you have one named Sparrow, Wren would be adorable for one and other bird names! They are so adorable!

Great to see you back! What a gorgeous bunch of ponies😊
Thank you!! 😊
They came right up and then they are following you around! Saw the little clip the other day, love the color of the new ponies. Six pony hitch eventually would be interesting. I'm guessing the first view of Jeremy's trip was something to do with a ferry. Best wishes and thank you for the news.
Such a treat to see you and your new little charges, Emma. 😉 How happy they must be to be with you and the family. 🌷Happy Easter! Happy spring! 🌷
Welcome back Emma! Lovely to see you with the newest fluff team...they're beautiful!
Thank you!! 😊
They are so cute and fluffy!!! I THINK IM GANNA DIE!!!!!!!!!!!! lol
I love how they follow you it’s so cute.
I was so excited to see a another video from you at last! These silver dapple ponies are very sweet looking :-)
I'm not sure about mare pee, but I have to deal with cat and house rabbit litterboxes, which both pee high amounts of ammonia, and vinegar seems to take it out like a charm without being harmful. Maybe there's some kind of mixture that would work nice with soap?
Sooo nice to see you and your beautiful horsies. I always love watching your videos and so hoping for PLENTY more☺️. I was thinking……. Margo and Darcy (prima ballerinas). Sparrow and Robin (our own little birdies). (Poking my neb in here😍. Anyone else who needs a name cd go into the groups……. Nina, Rudolf etc….. but whatever their names…..they are fabulous. As you can tell….’ I love them’. Good luck with everything😍.
Vinegar and baking soda in water helps with the yellow. I love the shampoos with the blueing in. I think that’s what you have for the greys?
Thanks for the tips!
You have been missed, but Im sure you've been having a great time doing all the things you love, so its great to see you back. Looking forward to the ponies next chapter in their lives with you. This will be one stunning team!
So good to see you back Emma. Your new team is lovely and looking forward to more videos with them 💞

I to bred the silver dapple miniature horse's but I love the black silver dapple . I never geld my . I am in the USA
Lovely to see you back, and the ponies are gorgeous. Silver dapple is a striking colour, the team will look spectacular.
We missed you!. I was so excited to see a new post rom you. Anything i can think of for whitening mightnjot be good for horses, likenthe pet stain remover or oxiclean... maybe peroxide? Juts on the end of the tail of course, so no skin contact.

Tomato ketchup for yellow tails. Acidity lifts the urine
For stained tails try baking soda, vinegar and shampoo make into a paste apply and rub in. I let it it sit before shampooing it out. I use this on my miniature schnauzer’s beard which is silver and gets stained from his food. Hope it works!
OMG soooo much fun, we have missed you, and yes per comment below, shenanigans !
Your dogs are beautiful
Hi Emma. Try baking soda or white vinegar for the urine stains. I can't tell you if it works as I don't have horses but at least it's natural. Great to have you back.

Percil powder for the mare's tails - not up on their dock/skin too much, but great at restoring grey/white tails
I just love these videos so much!

Thank you so much!
Great to see you! I can't wait to see you training them and having fun. Best wishes from Florida USA ❤️
I've Never seen a Silver dapple that color, and it's my Favorite color😕
So glad you are back Emma missed you and all of your horses and ponies.Much love from Australia xxxx
Have you thought of platting there tails , and putting a sock cover over the top of plat, like they do in America, not sure what the sock cover is called , just a suggestion
Washing up liquid on the ends of tails works fab on grey tails.
Never noticed what your routine is with floating your mini herds teeth. Can you show us in a future video? Big thanks for all the work you do.
I’ve missed you.🙂
How beautiful they are and how well behaved, considering all but one had never seen a shower or had their tails washed before and most of them hadn't been tied up! They must trust you very well already.
Once these cuties shed their winter coats and get slicked up with good brushings, their colors are going to be gorgeous.
Oh my goodness! I have a silver dapple driving pony! I love his coloring and can only imagine the joy of multiples. What a wonderful surprise, so glad you're back!
Good to see you back. Looks like you've recovered fully from your accident.
Love these shetland ponies you have a great understanding of the breed enjoy them Emma,
Thank you 🤗
I think they must've been enjoying the warm sun ...
love the video! Can’t wait for the next, would love to see an updated video of meet all your animals! 💜
That's seven dwarves???? (not derogatory).
another tip use a bluebag ? (for washing white clothes)do they still make them 😂
I don’t have experience with white tails but I have lots with shire horses with white feathers - which is probably worse!
There are three steps:-
Step 1 - washing. We used mild laundry flakes - the type for hand washing woollens. Mixed up with warm water in a bucket. Washing up liquid added directly to the hair for stubborn stains.
Step 2 - quick drying. We used sawdust (not redwood of course). Rub it into the wet hair and shake it off back into the bucket or trug. It all comes out in about a minute as the hair dries and can be used again.
Step 3 - protect the hair from staining. We used a cream made from vegetable oil and sulphur powder. It had a consistency somewhere between mayo and salad cream. The sulphur powder was used to prevent mud fever so you wouldn’t need that. I’m not sure if oil on its own would be too thin though. Maybe experiment - add a bit of raw talc or something similar - it needs to be something that they’re not keen on eating yet won’t harm them if they do. It was rubbed into the hair and left until the next wash. We didn’t usually bother with this step if we were washing them every day. It prevents staining, works like a conditioner and washes out like a dream.
Hope this helps xx
I have team of commercial Clydesdales and that sounds like something I should try! I use "Head and Shoulders" two washes then purple shampoo last wash then show sheen. Being in Australia, the saw dust here stains. I will try your laundry flakes idea!
@@Vee-zx6eh That’s interesting. We had one Clydesdale and it worked equally well on him. I can’t take credit for the system though - I got it from a wonderful man who had worked brewery horses in England and used to drive our top team at shows. The third step is the one that made the biggest difference. I guess you don’t have problems with mud fever but stopping the staining from getting hold is key. I know some use talcum powder instead of sawdust for drying. I never tried it though because using this system there weren’t any stains needing to be covered up and, in my opinion, sawdust gives a more natural look - and we consistently won! 😀 All the best!

Awww I have a Hugo, he's a little bigger than yours (16h2 ex racer), and he also loves his Hugs... so yep I call him 'Hugs' - :-)
I don't know if you can get Washbar solid shampoo from NZ or Bee Clean Naturally White shampoo bar for horse and hound but they have essential oils and are amazing at getting our grubby Connemara's tail clean! ❤️🦄☘️
Glad your back! I hope to see more of you and your animals soon! Lots of love from Germany
100% agree with the gelding and have them enjoy the herd. And yes it always feels regretful at moments. I have that with both my boys. But I also see how happy they are. Especially my youngest he’s so about meeting other horses.
Anyway.. stunning silver dapple team!
Your pony gelding is handsome
