Equi-Sential Horse Shaped Sponge for Grooming
Description
Equi-Sential Horse Shaped Sponge
The Equi-Sential Horse Shaped Sponge is a small, fun-sized grooming sponge cut into a horse silhouette and sold as a single sponge. It is best for riders who want a handy, easy-to-spot sponge for washing horses and ponies, sponging faces and legs, or wiping down tack around the yard.
Its compact size makes it comfortable for smaller hands, so it is a popular choice for children and pony club grooming kits as well as adult riders who prefer a smaller sponge for detail work.

FAQ
How many sponges are included?
This sponge is sold single, so you receive one horse shaped sponge per order. If you want separate sponges for face, body and dock, order the quantity you need.
What size is the sponge?
It is a small, fun-sized sponge rather than a large body sponge, which makes it easy to hold in one hand and well suited to children and detailed sponging work.
Is it suitable for children and pony club?
Yes. The small size and horse shape make it a practical, appealing addition to a young rider's grooming kit or as a stocking filler.
Can I use it for washing tack as well as the horse?
Yes. It can be used with your usual tack cleaner for wiping down leather and equipment, although most riders keep separate sponges for tack and for the horse.
How do I care for the sponge?
Rinse it through in clean water after every use, squeeze out the excess and leave it to air dry rather than storing it damp. Replace it once it becomes worn or no longer rinses clean.
Will the colour be the same as the photo?
Colours on novelty sponges can vary between batches, so the shade supplied may differ from the image shown.
