The bows in the tail represent a lot of work. The only purpose they serve as far as I know is for decoration. It is the same with the braided manes which we will feature later. Does anybody watch the TV show called "Gentle Giants" on RFD network? Its on every Sunday afternoon and features 6 horse hitch draft horse competition. Their tails and manes are decorated the exact same way. Draft horses have shorter tails than regular horses. I sure would like to watch how they do this but I did not get that privilege.

I agree that it was for looks, I can't imagine the time it takes to do this, but then if they are used to doing it, it might not take any time at all. I love this series, and draft horses. I did not know about the show, and I do have
RFD so will for sure watch it, thank you Pat. tigs=^..^=

There are folks trying to ban this practise...something to do with the tail used for cooling and keeping flies off to deter disease!....

Good bum shot

A bow on the bum! It looks good and after all it is only for a short while. Another interesting shot Pat.

I can't imagine watching anything but NFL Football on Sunday afternoon, so I am afraid I will bypass that show...not sure I have RFD anyways. I am glad I have my virtual reality aroma feature on my computer turned off. lol. Nice shot, Pat.

Momma, although it can't be seen very well, this image will show you that this habit is used in my area as well.
Think however that the horse don't realize that it's dressed up. Lucky for it, otherwise it dares not to go to the toilet, lol.

It's more for show and boy this would take lots of time to do all the horses. It's a good thing they have wonderful disposition
