I hope the sale's not over.....
COLD WEATHER IS ON OUR DOORSTEP IS YOUR PONY READY!!
I still have a pony blanket for sale. I made this blanket to fit my 12.2 hh,
700 lb. pony mule but it's too small.
The exterior fabric is black *Extreme Arctic*, a very durable, strong and
WATERPROOF fabric that is tough to tear. It is lined with navy blue *Yukon
Fleece* for warmth and black *Cool Max* to provide airflow and keep them
dry. It has navy blue, nylon straps and black nylon binding around the
entire bottom edge. It's not super pretty but it's definitely built to be
warm, dry AND strong!
For anyone that knows mules....they LOVE to roll, so this blanket was built
to stay ON. It has two chest straps with plastic, quick release buckles
(sturdy but very adjustable and easy on/off). It has cross straps that
criss-cross under the belly from butt to shoulder and one butt strap, all
with quick release buckles.
This blanket is super warm but still allows plenty of airflow. It does NOT
cause sweating like being wrapped in a plastic raincoat. I put it on my pony
mule when he was soaked with rain and shivering. He immediately warmed up,
quit shivering and relaxed. He wore the blanket overnight even though it was
too small and in the morning he was completely dry underneath.
This blanket is perfect for rainy, cold weather in spring and fall or for
winter days as low as -15C. It will fit a pony sized animal approx. 10 to 11
hh. It measures 56" long from wither to tail head and 38" wide across the
shoulders. I only used it one night and I will wash it before shipping.
I 've dropped my price to $50 Canadian trying to sell the blanket but still
recover at least part of the cost of material. This blanket cost $50+ to
make, not including my time. Pictures are available and can be seen at an
old Ebay auction if you search item number 3623311508 (auction is over,
blanket sells privately)
