Shires FlyGuard Pro is a protective fly hood for sun-sensitive horses and horses with increased light sensitivity or previous sun damage. It provides effective protection against both annoying flies and strong sunlight, while being designed for comfort during daily use in the paddock or outdoors.

The hood protects the head, cheeks, and the sensitive muzzle area with 90% UV protection, while the eye area receives shaded sun protection with over 60% UV protection. The extended nose section covers the muzzle and nostrils and helps protect sensitive skin from the sun's rays. This makes the model particularly suitable for horses with a light muzzle, sensitive skin, or those needing extra sun protection during the summer.

The fine mesh provides good visibility and free space around the eyes, reducing the risk of the hood pressing or causing irritation. The elastic neck section ensures a flexible and stable fit, while two fastenings around the jaw make the hood easy to attach. The inside has padded seams for extra comfort and reduced risk of chafing.

• UV protection head, cheeks, and muzzle: 90%
