warning - new stretchy bandages.

But where do you even get the non-elasticated ones these days? I can't find them anywhere! I remember when I was a kid they were nowhere near as stretchy, these days they are really elasticated.

I have searched and searched for the old fashioned ones, cannot find them anywhere. Everything is those horrible stretchy ones now so I use a tail guard instead - wish I had not cleared out all my old ones now

RE tail banadges - what is marketed as tail bandages is just scary - and I've even seen someone use vetwrap on their horse tail "because it doesnt slip down"??

I work for a big equestrian product manufactur and we get people calling us to tell us that our tail banadges arn't elasticated enough! :S I've got to say, being a horse owner myself i do worry about the people who call up...

Having scrubbed in for a tail amputation on a horse who had been left with a tail bandage on for a couple of days (being transported) it's something I am hugely ocd about too
