Bucas Wither Pad to the Rescue!

Bucas Wither Pad to the Rescue!

Horses are one of the most loved and fascinating animals around the world and rugging them is a common practice in most stables. However, the downside to this is that the lower part of the mane can get pulled out and rub marks can easily develop on the wither. Horses that are completely clipped are particularly sensitive to the pressure of the rug neckline.

To solve this problem, the Bucas research and development team has come up with a solution – the new Bucas WITHER PAD. The research and development team has been listening to feedback from customers and retailers to create an innovative solution that is tested in practice and passed with flying colours. The Bucas WITHER PAD is compatible with any Bucas Rug with neck attachment points and can be easily and securely attached to the existing Hook& Loop closures on the neckline.

The pad is designed to be folded flat under the rug, where it alleviates pressure from the wither area thanks to its 300g of cushioned insulation. The Silk-feel lining is smooth against the horse’s skin and helps to keep the mane and coat in good condition. This new pad is machine washable, which makes it easy to maintain. Bucas recommends washing the pad regularly, with Bucas Rug Wash and drying it with Tennis Balls to keep the insulation fluffy, as grease and dirt can also contribute to pulled-out hair on the crest of the mane.

The Bucas WITHER PAD ensures the horse’s comfort and protects the mane and wither. It is available in navy and one size, 47 x 61 cm, to meet the requirements of different horses. With this new pad, horse owners can rest assured that their horses will be warm, clean, and comfortable in their rugs without having to worry about any unwanted side effects.
