It comes complete with mesh eyes, built in ears, optional zip, adjustable noseband & elastic poll adjusters for secure fit. The Sweet Itch Hood also has a no-seam silky lined mane & shoulder area to prevent rubbing/chaffing and an adjustable belly strap.
The Snuggy Sweet Itch Hood is designed for comfort and protection. The noseband is soft on the inside and the neck is cut extra long so the horse can stretch down comfortably to graze.
This unique Hood is made of fully breathable, water repellent, heavy shower proof, lightweight, stretch fabric which is durable, cool & comfortable. The Sweet Itch Hood is fully machine-washable and designed to be worn 24/7, in field or in stable, rain or shine.
The Sweet Itch Hood covers ears, face, neck, shoulders and chest. We recommend to use this Hood with the Sweet Itch Rug for maximum coverage, nose to tail. The Sweet Itch Hood and Sweet Itch Rug is our best-selling combination for Sweet Itch prevention.
The Sweet Itch Hood is self-fixing so it can be used with any other rug such as a fly rug or Summer sheet. If you don't require the horse's head to be covered you can choose the Headless Sweet Itch Hood for amazing protection without covering the horse's face.
