FAQs

What is the fleece made of?

The rug is made of 100% polyester fleece.

Can I use this rug in the rain?

This rug is designed to absorb moisture, but it is not waterproof. It is best used for drying your pony after exercise or in cool, dry conditions.

How do I measure my pony for the correct size?

Measure from the center of the chest to the end of the hindquarters. Refer to the size chart for specific measurements.

How often should I wash the rug?

Wash the rug as needed, depending on usage. Regular cleaning will help maintain its performance.

Can I use fabric softener?

It is not recommended to use fabric softener as it can reduce the moisture-wicking properties of the fleece.

Store the clean, dry rug in a cool, dry place.

Troubleshooting

Rug slips or shifts.
