speedy shedding

[Scott & Dede Johnson <scottj@cyberlynk.com>]

You may have seen this, if you read Equus, but I thought this was
interesting.  An article states that you can speed shedding by "emptying an
entire bottle of baby oil over your horse, making sure to cover his legs and
belly.  After leaving the horse oiled for an overnight soak, give him a
warm-water shampoo.  The oil encourages dead hair to slide from the
follicles.  The procedure itself makes one big mess but gets it all over
with in a hurry.  The oil treatment works so well, in fact, that some
recipients can look rather bald for a few weeks afterward."
