Her mane has gotten a little thicker and longer since she started her weight gain supplement, so hopefully I'll see some noticeable gain on her body soon! Girl needs her hips back!

I mean, she didn't pull herself away _too_much while I worked, so I call it her letting me lol. If she didn't want me braiding her mane, she wouldn't have allowed me to touch it at all lol

Resisting violently counts as not letting you do it. Being generally agitated, and resisting mildly counts as letting.

I agree. She wasn't even resisting mildly, which was awesome. She was just grazing the whole time which made it difficult lol. There are days where she doesn't want her mane brushed and she'll move away. She's never gotten very forceful with grooming, but I also never push her boundaries when she isn't in the mood to be groomed too much.

It’s generally a good rule of thumb to respect the boundaries of anyone who is vastly stronger than you are.
