This adds shock absorption and protects the wool from sweat and hair, making your blanket easier to maintain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How do I properly clean and maintain the wool?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: To preserve the natural fibers, simply brush off dried sweat and hair with a stiff brush after each ride. For deep cleaning, hand-wash in cold water with a wool-safe detergent and air-dry flat; never use a machine or heat, as this will cause the wool to felt or shrink.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Will the Purple and Turquoise colors bleed onto my horse?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: These high-quality blankets are colorfast; however, if you have a light-colored horse or one that sweats heavily, a quick cold-water rinse or light vinegar soak before the first use is a professional tip to ensure the dyes are fully set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eItem Number\/SKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e NB4-PUR\/TUR\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Professional's Choice","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47383229300957,"sku":"NB4-PUR\/TUR","price":138.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/8748\/7965\/files\/optimized033126NB4-PURTUR.webp?v=1775024238","url":"https:\/\/hoovesandpaws.com\/products\/32x64-casa-zia-nb-pur-tur","provider":"Hooves and Paws","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
