Ozark™ 1200D Lightweight Waterproof Blanket for
Miniatures and Ponies
If you are looking for an all-around blanket
that fits well and will keep your mini or pony warm during milder temperatures,
here is a great choice! Also perfect for layering, the waterproof 1200 Denier
outer shell provides excellent coverage, with 80 grams of fiberfill for added
warmth. The easy open front style is constructed with a double hook-and-loop
closure in the front as well as one in the belly band, which ensures that the
straps do not come undone, and makes it very difficult for your horse (or their
friends!) to get this blanket off! A fitted rump with sewn in tailpiece help provide a great fit. Leg straps are removeable

Measuring Instructions:
Stand your horse as square as possible, and
measure from the center of chest around side of the body to the point of the
horse's rump just before the tail. If your horse ends up measuring between
sizes, always round up to the next size to ensure full coverage.
Washing Instructions:
To keep your blanket as comfortable as possible
for your horse and to maximize the blanket's life, it is recommended that you
clean your blanket annually. First, remove excess dirt from the outside of the
blanket with a brush and hose. The blanket can then be washed either by hand,
or on a delicate cycle with cool water in a commercial washer. Use only very
mild soap. When the blanket has been washed, allow to drip dry and ensure that
the blanket is thoroughly dry before storage. Do not put your horse's blanket
in the dryer or wash with hot water. Do not store your horse's blanket if damp
or wet. This will damage the waterproof coating and void any warranties.
Horses Turned Outside Without Shelter:
Ozark by Kensington Turnout Sheet and Blanket
materials are waterproof and designed to keep your horse dry. However, if your
horse is turned out in a field without a run-in shed or shelter during
prolonged rain or heavy downpours, your horse may still get wet, especially in
the neck and tail areas.
When using a blanket or
sheet, it is critical to monitor the fluctuating climate and temperatures, even
with a blanket that is waterproof and breathable. The wicking properties of a
breathable blanket are designed to wick away normal body heat. When a blanket
is too heavy, the heat and moisture cannot be wicked away fast enough, causing
your horse to sweat. The temperature and the length of your horse’s coat will
determine what weight of blanket you should use. For this reason, most people
who choose to blanket horses have several articles of horse clothing that offer
varying levels of warmth.
