Wild Horse Australia - Customer Comments

My horses have been wearing their new Wild Horse Insect Shield rugs for only 24 hours and already there is not a bump or bite in sight! Even on our mare who suffers from horrible Qld itch. We just moved to North Qld and I have never seen the amount of bites on a horse before we put these rugs on. Very Highly Recommended! Bonnie Qld

Until we discovered your rugs we were seriously thinking about parting with our two lovely Highland Ponies out of the itch area.  Very happy with the fly rugs. Itching has stopped & coat growing again - terrific result!  Katy

I have purchased 3 of your rugs, WOW, I love them. I won’t purchase any other brand now but yours. Allison NSW

Would like to say that my horse (a friesian) Saxton is so much more comfortable in the insect repellent rug, as I don't have to lather him in fly repellent cream, which leaves his coat very sticky. He always gets bothered by mosquitos and flies.  It is a very well made rug and the first one that has actually fit him without slipping down the side and you should be proud of the quality of it! Thanks once again. Wendy VIC

Hi we are currently using your Insect repellent rugs on our horses and have found them to be wonderful and love that we are not showering our horses in chemical spraysTasch Qld

Hi my name is Shae and I’m the secretary of a Polocrosse Club in the Northern Territory. We have been using your Insect Shield rugs on our horses for the last few months & now wouldn’t use anything else, they are fantastic as they let the horse breath as well. We were just using a normal white combo rug on them but found that they sweated to much & were still getting bitten. Shae NT

I live in Queensland and love my mesh insect rug. We purchased the Repellent mesh with full hood including eyes covers. The rug continued to repel biting insects right throughout all that rain. The quality of the rugs are excellent and i will purchase another next season without hesitation. Danica Qld

Hi. I attended Rosewood Equine Expo last weekend. Purchased the Infrared rug for one of my horses. Have to say this is the best made and best fitting rug I have ever owned. My only regret was that I didn't buy another 10 to fit out all the horses here. Tanya Qld

How awesome to meet someone who is so customer service orientated!   Just wanted to say thanks for sourcing the 6 foot Insect Repellent ripstop combo for the filly. You also showed me the Red Winter Rug, excellent design ideas. But as soon as the combo arrived, I went down and put it on the filly.  I was going through combos because she would still get bitten through them, so she would of course rub, and then the combos would get a tear in them and if you didn't take them off and get them fixed, they would be torn to shreds.   Then to add to the mix, there is her brother, who would tear the combo's up on the loin area during the mutual grooming process. The filly stopped rubbing within a week of the rug going on, I didn't put the mask on her and what a huge surprise she also stopped rubbing her forelock area and other parts of her face. Due to the quality of the ripstop, her brother hasn't succeeded in tearing it. I am totally impressed with the rug, so much so, come the release of next season's insect repellent combo's, I will be getting one for her brother. Thanking you again for all your help. Wendy Qld

Hello, I purchased a winter combo rug for my standard bred mare in the autumn, and have found it to be perfect. Thank you. Lisa, Mt Tamborine

I would be very pleased if you used my comments on your horse rugs for the marketing testimonial, as I know they are the best on the market. Superior! I look forward to seeing your new range. have a lovely day, Leonie VIC

I saw & bought a Snug Zip Combo at the Qld Dressage Festival in July - fell in love with lots of things but mostly the potential for an excellent fit. I spent Sunday sorting rugs - only 2 out of 12 'measured true'. The new Wild Horse & an old canvas Eureka. I will be sure to let you know if the fit lives up to my expectations and looking at the cut compared to my others, I'm sure it will -  especially around the neck, which will stop the rug 'dragging off the rump".  Many more poorly fitting rugs now tagged for our clearing sale & hopefully I will be replacing them with Wild Horse. Thank you. Sonia Qld

Just wanted to say that your rug has been GREAT!  I have had it on Evie since the day I got it.  Even when she rolls it has stood up to the test and never jammed the zip or slipped or anything.  It fits her the best of any rugs and she has no rub marks anywhere.  She is a happy girl and it is so easy to just take the neck rug off when it is a little warmer rather than taking the whole thing off and replacing with a lighter rug.  I am wishing my other horse had one!  I have to take off his combo to put on the regular rug, which is a pain.  She is warm and dry, even after heavy rain, as we have had a lot of rain lately so it has been put to the test there too. I am very happy with the rug and will definitely buy another in the future!  Thanks again.  Jodie

Hey Wild Horse Australia ........Got rug fits like a glove. Tiffany

I cannot believe the difference, I purchased your mesh rug for one of our horses mainly because I thought the quality looked good and I liked how it had some better safety options than the other brands, I truly didn’t think it would really work as an insect repellent. We have a real tick problem in our area and I have had to spray our horses every few days to keep the grass ticks at bay,  that caused irritating lumps, after putting your rug on our mare they all dropped off and have stayed off!
We have now purchased three more of your rugs, we love the fit, it saves us time and money on those sprays so I am happy and so are our horses they seem calmer and happier, thankyou Wild Horse.  Paul, Tallebudgera, Qld

 

I purchased 9 months ago a red & black rug with logo "Wild Horse Wear Australia" - Love the fit etc of this rug on young arab mare - do you have a catalogue or website I can view your other products please?  Carolyn, Windsor NSW

 

great product, to those who are not currently aware of the excellent quality and realistic cost!! Can't wait to see your new range - have been holding off buying new winter rug until then - my red/black is fantastic  Sue, Raymond Terrace

 

I just tried on the rug on my mare. It fits her so well! I am really pleased. All her other rugs (old ones she came with) rub around her shoulder, but this one is cut so well around the shoulder I am sure it wont! I am really happy - it fits soooo good without the hood, and with the hood too! I love your logo on it too it looks great! It feels great quality. Hope your rugs sell really well. Initially I didn't like the red (wanted purple for my girl), but it looks really dashing on. Plus, we barrack for Essendon lol! Hmm wish I didnt just get a weatherbeeta for Champ I like these better! Thanks so much I am really happy with the rug and it will make it so much easier to just put the neckrug on at night. I didn't leave it on her because I want to get photos of her before she rolls in it (you know horses lol!)

 

Hi there Wild Horse Australia,
Just wanted to say that your rug has been GREAT! I have had it on my horse since the day I got it. Even when she rolls it has stood up to the test and never jammed the zip or slipped or anything. It fits her the best of any rugs and she has no rub marks anywhere. She is a happy girl and it is so easy to just take the neck rug off when it is a little warmer rather than taking the whole thing off and replacing with a lighter rug. I am wishing my other horse had one! I have to take off his combo to put on the regular rug, which is a pain. She is warm and dry, even after heavy rain, as we have had a lot of rain lately so it has been put to the test there too.
I am very happy with the rug and will definately buy another in the future!

Thanks again,  Jodie.

 

Well, looking at this rug, I think it is similar to Weatherbeeta, but with an extra feature. Of course, people buy the brand name. But because it is 1200D and not 600D, that is better quality. It looks a well put together rug. It sits nicely on the horse pictured shoulder instead of sagging down and causing restriction like some (as you can see I have really researched rugs! So there is a pat on the back that I bought yours already). So, Weatherbeeta combo goes for $259 or something like that, but doesnt have zip off neck, so is restrictive in that sense but of course a good rug. I now not only love the style and fit of your rug better I love your price too!

Hi Wild Horse Australia, We hope this email finds you, I guess I won't know unless I receive a reply hey. We have attempted to source your goods as we would like to be able to make some purchases, but, to this point in time we have been unable to. We would like to know if you are still manufacturing Rugs and if so do you have any for sale at the moment. We sincerely hope so as the product is the best we have ever encountered. We would appreciate a reply, that is if you do receive this message, one way or the other as we could then decide on our next course of action. Hope you are keeping well,

Kind Regards,
Paul and Leonie, Swan Hill
