Anyone know of a hood that really is waterproff & doesn't slip. Its for horses that live out that i would like to clip their heads. The full neck rugs are good but I think it unfair to clip heads out with a full neck. Also I need it to not slip as when I go to work there is no one to check on my horses again till I get home so I have a fear of them slipping & the horse bumping their heads or rubbing it get it off. Or if it isn't really waterproof - it would be horrid to have a wet hood on - far better fro their hair to get wet - at least that will dry off - a wet hood would be like going out in the rain in your jumper with no coat - yuk I hate that! I've heard that Snuggy hoods are good - very expensive - but if they work be worth it - so some truthful reviews be good please - good or bad!!!! thanks in advance

I would definitely recommend a Sunggy Hood for you. I ahve two horses that wear them; one is now 4 years old, the other 3 years old and they are fabulous.

I too am away from home for 9 hours a day- I am always safe in the knowledge that they dont slip. They are more 'shower proof' than waterproof though so you have to dry them out overnight whilst horse is stabled.

If you are worried about the mane rubbing out try this:
