I've been sewing my own and like how they turn out but they don't really have a shape and sometimes I want to leave one on under a blanket if they are still a bit damp and I feel like they migrate side to side sometimes. I sew in a chest buckle, under tail tie, and a neck tie for ones that come up higher on the neck but want more security and ideas. Does anyone have a pattern or know where to get one? I used an older cooler I had as a template and this is the season where I start making more so looking for patterns or advice
I've thought about belly straps but not sure my machine could get through the material that is strong enough to really do the job

My mother made one for a super small pony years ago. If I recall it did have an elastic belly strap that really helped keep it in place. Don't even think it had anything for the tail, just the neck.
I forgot about Teskys... and they ship really fast. :)
I am in Weatherford so I visit them daily. They are my absolute favorite store! Very friendly and great to do bsuiness with. Very humble people. I hear they ship fast all the time.
