Horse DNA test.

[Chicken butler]

I got a DNA Test for my horse this Christmas, but it says I have to pull about 45 hairs from her tail to send in and I am a bit concerned about if it will make her freak out. She is only 2, but very sweet. Any tips on how to make this not be a stressful ordeal for either of us? Thanks.

Horses don't really feel pain from that and probably won't have much of a reaction to it. You couldn't probably give her some kind of treat to occupy her while you do it to help as well.
