The Snuggy Bug Body ® Fly Rug is sure to become a 'must have' in every equine's wardrobe. Offering comprehensive poll to dock protection - the Snuggy Bug Body® Fly Rug is the most innovative, protective 'bug rug' on the market.
Featured in Horse and Hound's top 12 fly rugs !
Constructed of the same fabric as the Sweet Itch Hood and Sweet Itch Rug, the Bug Body Fly Rug is robust yet lightweight and fully breathable, water repellent, stops coat bleaching as well as protecting from midges, other flying/biting insects, dust and dirt. The Bug Body Fly Rug is suitable for horses and ponies with fly or insect sensitivity or allergies as well as Sweet Itch sufferers. It will keep you horse cool and comfortable all Summer long. Also excellent as a under layer in winter months, with or without the neck section.
The Snuggy Bug Body Fly Rug comes as a two piece neck and rug combo for versatility and ease of fitting. The rug part- with built in full belly band, tail wrap and XL flap, is fitted first. The neck piece then slips over the horse's head and is secured to the top and sides of the rug's neck with Velcro leaving no gaps. The top of the neck sits closely behind the ears even when the horse stretches down to graze and is elasticated, with adjustment, to prevent any insects getting inside. The mane area of the neck is lined with a seamless, silky, non stretch lining to prevent mane rubbing/hair loss.
Small straps are fitted to the withers and chest section of the rug to prevent gaps. The withers and chest areas are padded and elasticated to prevent pressure. Three Velcro patches are fitted to the rug and belly each side to achieve a close Snuggy fit and a strong anti-stretch binding is run along the spine of the Bug Body to keep the rug in shape and prevent it slipping backwards.
Plus there is also the option to add the Sweet Itch Mask with ears and mesh eyes, as well as Front Legs, Sheath Cover or Udder Cover for extra coverage for severe sufferers. These items are purchased separately and need the appropriate attachments sewn on to the Rug. During a sale/offer or discount period, customers are asked to add the appropriate attachments to their basket. If this is not done, you will receive an attachments pack with instructions leaflet, to enable you to add the necessary attachments yourself.

Ich habe die Decke in der Größe 5/6 für meine Isländer Stute mit einer Rückenlänge von 120cm bestellt. Die Decke passt super und meine Stute schwitzt mit dieser Decke nicht so schlimm wie mit anderen Decken.
Die Decke ist nahezu lückenlos dicht (habe den Euterschutz dran nähen lassen) und somit steht meine Stute ganz relaxt auf der Weide.
Der Versand ging recht schnell. Sie wurde schon am nächsten Tag verschickt und war noch nicht mal eine Woche unterwegs.
Ich würde sie klar weiterempfehlen und selbst wieder kaufen.
Very well crafted rug with thoughtful design
Snuggly hoods rugs are just so amazing for horses with sweet itch or other issues to do with flys. So easy to clean and keeps the horse free from flies and also clean.
We have a horse that is very allergic to midges so we put the bug rug on about 2 weeks ago and it has done an amazing job, no lumps for well over a week
Je recommande les produits Snuggy Hoods, les produits sont de très grande qualité et la relation commerciale est excellente. J'ai eu des soucis de taille - j'ai ensuite été conseillée, ils m'ont changé le produit sans problème à leur frais.
