Overview
Why We Love This
The Back on Track Therapeutic Fleece Blanket can benefit all horses - from pleasure to Olympic horses in every discipline. This blanket is made from a soft fleece material with state-of-the-art Welltex fabric containing polyester thread embedded with a fine ceramic powder. Designed to reflect the horse's own body warmth, it creates a soothing far infrared thermal heat, which can help alleviate pain associated with inflamed muscles, joints, tendons, and ligaments. Horses with tired or sore backs and shoulder muscles experience relief from this soft heat therapy, as well as horses with cold backs. Blanket includes two chest buckles, crossing belly surcingles, and a tail flap. In a short time you will see and feel the results in the way your horse moves and acts!

Instructions
Instructions for Use:
Please read carefully, both the usage and washing instructions, before using the product.
All Back on Track products should be implemented gradually. To start with, use the product for a maximum of four hours a day for the first 2-3 days. The body then has the opportunity to familiarize itself with the fabric’s effects.
The reason we recommend starting with a maximum of 4 hours use is that some people experience pain in the beginning. In horses and dogs, it manifests itself as a swelling. This is due to the increased blood circulation, which is actually a good indication that the ceramic fabric is taking effect. This initial pain or swelling can occur anywhere from a few to several hours of use. You should then cease using the product any more that day, and instead introducing it carefully and more gradually over the following days.
After the introductory period you should up the usage to a minimum of 8 hours per day, preferably more. After only an hour or so is often perceived a positive effect on tight muscles and stiff joints. More persistent problems may require several days, usually between 10-20, before the desired result is achieved.
After the introductory period of 2-3 days it is important to continue to use the product intensively at least 10, preferably 20 days, before assessing its impact. Since this ceramic fabric reflects more of the body’s heat radiation as you move, the effect is greatest if you wear the product when active. Back on Track also works when resting, even when you sleep.
Continue to use the product according to the routine you develop, or use it for two weeks and then take a break in the third week, this in order to avoid dependency. The sensitivity of this dependency varies from individual to individual. For maximum effect, the ceramic fabric should be in direct contact with the skin (if necessary, a thin cotton cloth inserted between).
Note: Caution is advised during simultaneous use with liniment or similar, since the effect is amplified. Use the product only as directed and consult a doctor if symptoms persist. Do not use during pregnancy.
Specific instructions for use on horses and dogs:
Keep in mind that the effect of Back and Track increases with movement when the body heat increases, so in addition to using pads and blankets in the stables, the horse can also be allowed to move around with the Back on Track products. Especially suitable in this context is Riding Boots, Leg Wraps, Saddle Pads, Exercise Sheets and Blanket/Sheets.
For long term problems, the horse may need to use Back on Track for an extended period. Use the product for two to three weeks and have a break one week, to see if the symptoms persist.
As a preventive measure, Back on Track can be used with regular breaks. Use Back on Track 1 day before and 2 days after exercise and then stop until the next workout. For warm-up, use 1-2 hours before and 2-4 hours after exercise.
For dogs, one often uses the standard Dog Blanket, which is rain repellent and breaths. However, it should be noted that for long-running problems, Back on Track should be used for several weeks, at least 8 hours per day, with regular breaks in order to achieve the desired results. This means that the dog can use the blanket day and night, indoor as well as outdoor, 24/7. If being used at night, it is probably more comfortable for the dog to wear the Mesh Blanket, which is more adaptable. Alternatively, the dog may be provided with a mattress with "memory foam" or a cover of Back on Track to the sleeping basket. The foam part molds to the body shape and relieves a sore back.
Washing:
Back on Track products can be machine washed up to 86°F or 30°C. Use normal detergents that do not contain bleach or fabric softeners. Air dry only, do NOT tumble dry.
Note: Do not use bleach or fabric softener, or tumble dry. The product should be ironed at a maximum temperature of 122 F The ceramic powder is fused in the fibres of polyester/polypropylene and does not separate when washed. The textile loses efficiency with time and extended use.
The textile is produced in China and consists of 100% polypropylene (PP) with ceramic powder or 50% polyester with ceramic powder and 50% cotton.

This blanket is great! It provides the back warmth that my horse has benefited from due to her advanced Kissing Spine. HOWEVER, the sizing is not correct in my estimation. This blanket stretches and gaps in the front to fit my horse who always takes a 78.

Runs SMALL
I'm a huge BOT fan, and easily have over a dozen of their products for my horses, dogs and myself. For my horses, I use the mesh sheet for summer, and this one when the temps drop as I LOVE the fabric of this fleece sheet - feels so cozy. The one HUGE downside to this particular product is that the sizing is wayyyyy off. My 14'3 900 lb Arab mare takes a size 69 or 72 in everything (including her BOT mesh sheet) but I had to go up to a size 78 to even be able to get the fabric to meet in the front of her chest and the tail seam to be in the right place. I'd say it runs two if not three sizes too small.

Nice addition to my horse's Back on Trackwardrobe
I already have the BOT mesh sheet and wanted something I could use before and after riding, trailering to and from lessons and as a layer under a sheet or light blanket. This is a nice quality cooler and the fit is similar to the sheet, though a little less roomy in the shoulders.
The 81" fits my 17-hand young warmblood with an upright high neck set (he wears a Rambo 81"). I haven't tried it on my other horse yet to know how it would work on a beefier horse.
I would have given five stars if the shoulder was a little more roomy and the front buckles were a little better designed (I have this same complaint on the mesh sheet). I think the straps may need to be adjusted later after my horse expands, but for now it is okay.
And, yes, it is FLEECE, so it is going to attract dust and shavings. That's what fleece does!

Back on Track Fleece Blanket
This is the best fitting of all the Back on Track sheets for my horse. I own numerous Back on Track products for myself and have experienced almost instant relief from pain, so I'm assuming the horse products have the same result. I own the mesh sheet, the 1/4 sheet, and the fleece sheet, and utilize them in this order:
1.He wears his mesh sheet daily
2.In cold weather I put the 1/4 sheet on him while saddling.
3.After my ride, I put the fleece blanket on him before replacing it with the mesh sheet, to make sure all dampness is removed.

Great Idea
The Back-on-Track fleece blanket is a great idea, but the fleece quickly picks up dust, shavings, debris, etc. It's super helpful with my horse's arthritis but extremely difficult to keep clean.
