* Snuggy Hoods Summer Hoods - (Headless or full hood option)
These hoods provide all of the above qualities although are made from a slightly more robust material. Ideal for those who live out 24/7 in the run up to their show or the ultra dirty greys which are artists at painting themselves in poo. The weatherproof fabric will eliminate ANY stable stains from seeping through and staining the hair. This can be used together with the Spik & Span or Sweet Itch rug which is a slightly lighter weight fabric more suited to summer use.
* If you are suffering with mane loss from winter rugs rubbing then MegaTek Rebuilder is superb for aiding hair regrowth.
* One secret to achieving a great shine on the coat is to hot rag your horse all over with warm water diluted detol, rub the coat over once a week and leave to dry. Fit your Snuggy Hoods Shiny Show Hood & Rug after the coat has dried and wait until you see the difference.
