clipping



A year and a half ago while at the Sage Hill Competitive trail ride--I think
that it was also the IAHA sweepstakes ride---at any rate the ride
veterinarian really scolded a woman who had body clipped her horse----it was
a total body clip.  He said that clipping the saddle area is a no no in long
distance riding and that for sure he felt that her hose would suffer
blisters and schaffing in the saddle area. He made a big deal out of it and
totally mortified the poor woman in front of a whole group of people.  I've
never needed to clip a horse b/f--what do you all think about clipping the
saddle area, is it a no no as that vet insisted?  renee b  not to be
confused with the Renee.
