Honestly she might lmao. I wanted to try to clean her up a bit before I had to go home, but the mud hadn't dried yet. It was a little too cold for a bath, but even if it was warmer, I don't think she's ever gotten a proper bath before. I tried to bathe her last summer and she flipped out. My goal is to get her a bath this summer, but it's gonna require me to desensitize her to the bathing hose over time.

Good luck, I've learned to just accept the difficulties with my rescue dog and love him for himself. Although even he's learned to be chill with the vacuum cleaner now, and he really hated it before, so I'm sure you have a chance. Just takes time.

Have the hose visible before using with a routine before use, use it in a safe way over and over again. But I know nothing about horses, just what might work.
