Take a sponge and wipe face, neck, legs, spine with lavender oil and witch hazel mixed in warm water. The animal will relax and take in the soothing smell. This mixture cleans the coat and soothes the animal.
Sprinkle baking soda with crushed or powdered lavender over the coat. Brushed in, then back out. Dirt and grime will lift out and off the horse.
Use this if you do not or cannot use the water method.
Allow horse to graze on fresh herbal mixture of freshly picked dandelion, wheat grass, nettle leaves and red clover. The shine will come back into their coat and the sigh of pure pleasure of smelling fresh greens.
Dandelion helps with gas and preventing colic..but don't over feed the dandelion.

Fresh chamomile, lavender, lemon balm, and peppermint make a hot compress. Wrap legs with compress to relieve strain and stiffness from standing so long and lack of exercise.
