Immediately after being unsaddled the horses would take a "Dirt Bath". Being hot, sweaty and likely itchy from the saddles nothing feels better to our equine fellows than a good roll in the dirt. Caught these two cowboys watching as the horse frolicked during his "Dirt Bath"

Great shot Emile, love how the guys are watching the horse. I have 3 horses and they LOVE their dirt bath, even if they've not been ridden. #9851329
