They sell special vacuums for this, we just used a cannister style with that attachment that I think is for upholstery.

Mine showed all year so they were usually clipped, but if not they would get a really thick winter coat that you would have to curry it off and use a shedding tool.

Next lesson in the series "The Wacky World of Everything Equine" ... What is a sheath? Who cleans it?
Um... I watched the video. Hopefully that person would be the veterinarian.
