Smart Grooming Equi Plugs Horse Ear Plugs
Description
Smart Grooming Equi Plugs - Soft Ear Plugs for Horses and Ponies
Smart Grooming Equi Plugs are soft, round faux wool ear poms that sit gently inside a horse's ear to block loud noises and shield the ear from wind, rain and dust. They are best for horses and ponies that become distracted or unsettled by noise when schooling, competing, travelling or turned out, and they come two plugs per packet in small or large.
The plush, rounded shape gives a comfortable, pressure-free fit that is quick to insert and just as quick to remove, so you can take them out the moment your horse no longer needs them. Browse more horse grooming and yard essentials to complete your kit.

How to Use
- Choose your size: small for ponies, large for cobs and horses.
- Stand safely to the side of the head and let your horse see and sniff the plug first.
- Gently insert one plug into the ear so it sits comfortably, without pressing or being pushed deep.
- Repeat on the second ear and check both plugs are secure before you ride, load or turn out.
- Supervise your horse while the plugs are in place and remove them if any sign of irritation appears.
- Remove after use, keep the pair clean and dry, and store them together ready for next time.
FAQ
What size Equi Plugs do I need?
Small suits ponies, and large suits cobs and horses. Choosing the correct size is the main reason plugs stay put, so match the size to your horse's type rather than ordering the bigger option by default.
How many plugs are in a pack?
Each packet contains two plugs, which is one complete pair.
Do ear plugs block out all noise?
No. They help minimise external sounds to reduce distraction, rather than eliminating noise completely, so your horse can still hear you.
Can they be used for travelling and turnout?
Yes. They are a practical choice during training, transport or turnout, and they also shield the ears from wind, rain and dust.
What are they made from?
Soft faux wool fabric formed into rounded poms for a gentle, non-irritating fit in sensitive ears.
Can they be used all year round?
Yes. They are designed for use in all temperatures and keep their softness and flexibility throughout the year.
