The Story Behind Bit Blanket

Jamie Sturgess, Inventor and President of Bit Blanket, Inc. has been an avid horse lover since she was a little girl growing up in New Hampshire. She has always loved everything about horses; the way they look, the way they smell, the whinny when they hear you coming, and the way they know and understand your personal touch. One thing she never liked, however, was feeling bad every time she had to put a cold bit in her horse’s mouth on those blustery winter days in New Hampshire (of which there are many.) Over the years, after trying all the various approaches and techniques to offer her horse some relief from that cruel practice, she came up with the concept of an easy and effective way to warm a cold bit. No more hassling with boiling or microwaving reusable pads. No more ongoing expense of buying disposable warming pads or the ineffective but creative techniques riders desperately attempt – let’s face it…if you ever tried it, you know your armpits can only get a bit so warm! And brrrr, those bits are ccccold!

So now Jamie is proud to offer riders and horses in all those cold winter regions a safe, effective, easy-to-use option for warming cold bits. Give it a try. You, but more importantly your horse, will be glad you did!
