The Well-Dressed Horse

In what is certainly a first for me, I am finding that I am not experiencing buyers remorse over the gorgeous Schneiders hunter-green blanket I invested in last year for Pookey.

The thing is gorgeous.

It looks like it did the day I took it out of the box, with nary a mark on its smooth denier surface, and plenty of loft. It repels dirt and grime, and when it can't repel any longer, coughs up the dirt with just one swipe of a wet cloth.

Last winter it fit his super-sized body like a glove. Now that he is once again lean, the bellyband with its handy velcro closure keeps the blanket snug against his frame, while the generous wither pocket allows me to tighten down the Adjust-A-Fit neck to his smaller size.

No question about it--Schneiders sure got it right with this blanket.

So right, in fact, that I am ordering him a matching neck cover, to keep that little pencil neck sleek for the early spring shows.

Shhhhh.....

Don't tell his banker!!!
