The most accurate and easiest way to determine your horse’s blanket size is to measure along the side of their body, from chest to tail. First, stand the horse square on a flat surface. Measure from the center of the chest, straight back to the very edge of the tail. Make sure to measure along the widest part of their shoulder and hindquarters. The number of inches measured in this way is your horse’s size. Look on the size chart for any Schneiders blanket for this number of inches to order your horse’s perfect size.

"The overall workmanship is very good. The problem is that the neck opening is huge relative to the size of the sheet. So, it does not fit like the photo - instead it closed very low on the chest, or you can pull it behind the wither. Neither is a good choice. Since the purpose of buying the sheet was to cover her chest from the allergy caused by the gnats, it does not work for me."
"I love the mosquito mesh sheet! Flies, not mosquitoes , are my biggest concern and this sheet covers him and the problem perfectly. Doc recently got bitten in the face by a rattlesnake and spent 5 days in the hospital getting anti venom and recovering. It was a happy day when I could turn him out again with his best buddy in his new sheet. He’s healthy again and his coat looks beautiful. Thanks, Schneiders, for covering both of my boys!"
