Posey Gets A Fly Sheet With A Waterproof Liner
Posted by Sally Steinmetz on Mar 31st 2021
The Amigo Pony Bug Rug is one of the most versatile, well-loved pony fly sheets available! With it's removable neck cover and optional waterproof fly sheet liner it's useful rain or shine.
The color is perfect for ponies. The pale azure blue sheet will keep them cool and the bright pink surcingles plus Pink/White/Blue trim add a pop of color for the smaller equines. It's soft and durable plus has great UV protection.
Posey is wearing the Horseware Pony Fly Sheet Liner under her fly sheet in this photo. The day was cool with rain predicted and since she's clipped it was the perfect solution to keep her comfortable. The liner is so easy to put on - there are velcro tabs at the chest and neck plus snaps to attach to the dee rings at the tail. And it fits so nicely. Now Posey is protected from bugs and UV but will stay dry as showers roll through!
