The rug fits my horse well and is very warm and dry in it. My problem is that the tail cover tore in the first few weeks in the hard frost. I sent a message to the company I bought it from and they responded quickly. They wanted to contact Weatherbeeta for advice and it's been three weeks and I haven't heard a word. Since the backing looks like vinyl I probably wouldn't buy it again unless the company fixed it. Three weeks is not a long time for a damaged blanket, my horse is old and not destructive.
