Tail Guards

[TicTac]

can any body recommend a good tail guard that stays in place and will protect the tail of my mare who sits on her bottom in the lorry?

I am a very safe and carefull driver but no matter what my mare will lean ( She travels herringbone) and always ends up with a messy tail and rub patch on one side of her quarters. She wont be travelling in a rug or roller as she has just had kissing spine surgery so nothing that requires tying to a roller. Thanks

I tail bandage and then put a tail guard over the top. I think mine is a weatherbeta but I could check if you want

I have a Woof Wear one, which is nice as it goes up high as well, and has never slipped. I do put a tail bandage on underneath as well though. Having said that, I never used to and it never slipped then.

I use a Mark Todd one and it stays put well.

My gelding does this and its infuriating (esp as he's a show horse :O )

I use a really well bandaged tail coming right up as high as possible and ontop of that he has a woof wear tail guard which seems to do the job most of the time although occasionally he can work his way out of it but its deffinelty working the best so far

Other than that my symphathy as i know exactly how irritating it is

Tail loosely plaited, bandaged on the top, then second one for the lower part of the tail, then a tail guard with a bag on it... horse is grey and messy! stays put! I also bought a summer sheet with a overly large tail flap (almost down to his hocks) and that adds another layer.

I wanted to know this as well - only prob i have is being really BAD at bandaging - i can do legs in my sleep but tails - no chance what stays put without the bandage?
