Hoods from Horseware

Do you need extra neck protection for your horse? A hood from world-leading Horseware is a good accessory for many different occasions and can provide additional protection against rain, cold, or insects. The hood attaches to the horse's blanket and protects the horse's neck. Horseware offers hoods in different models and with different linings and properties.

Horseware Hoods - extra protection against insects, cold, and rain

A hood from Horseware is an additional way to protect your horse against cold, rain, or insects. Some horse blankets have hoods with a removable neck part and there are also loose hoods for different models of horse blankets. There are also loose, thinner hoods that can be used without a horse blanket.

What is a hood used for?

A hood can have several different functions. When it comes to fly sheets and eczema sheets, a hood has the purpose of protecting the horse's neck against the bites of flying insects that can cause eczema and irritation. A hood together with a rain sheet acts as a more comprehensive protection against rain and moisture. During the winter months, a hood can be a good complement to the winter rug and give the horse more protection against the cold.

Hood for clipped horse

If your horse is clipped, it is of particular importance to have a hood because the horse has then lost its natural protection around the neck and using a horse blanket with a hood is recommended. Since not all horses really like wearing a hood, it can be good to buy a horse blanket with a removable hood or a loose hood and try it out.
