Abstract
The present invention generally relates to equine tail coverings used to keep the equines tail clean, promote growth and repel insects. The conventional tail bag is typically loose fitting and does not typically have the durability needed to keep up with an active equine. The present invention uses a compressive force to help hold the covering in place while it protects the tail and the artificial tassels serve as a replacement for the natural tail of the horse in order for the equine to have full functionality of their tail.
