Troubleshooting
Neck cover not staying attached
Ensure the touch and close fasteners are securely fastened and aligned with the compatible rug. Check if the rug is designed to accept this specific neck cover model.
Horse appears wet underneath after rain
Verify the rug and neck cover are correctly fitted without gaps. Check the waterproof rating and ensure the fabric hasn't been compromised. Reapply a suitable water repellent if necessary.
Neck cover seems too tight or loose
Confirm the neck cover is compatible with the specific turnout rug model. Adjust the touch and close fasteners to the most secure fit possible. For persistent fit issues, consider a different size or model.
