Our Treatment Blindfold is designed similarly to our Fly Mask, except that it is made with a water resistant, breathable black nylon fabric. The black nylon fabric blocks the light and the animal's ability to see. Blindfolding an animal has been shown to have a calming effect during medical treatments, toenail trimming, shearing, grooming or any stressful handling situations. The Treatment Blindfold can be put on over your llama or alpaca's halter, making it easy to put on and take off, while still maintaining control of your animal via the halter. The Treatment Blindfold has an opening for the ears, and a velcro strap under the chin for securing the fit to your animal.
A special Thank You to Hitch 'N Post Alpaca and Llama Farm in Woodstock, Illinois for allowing us to use their beautiful alpaca Sorcha as our model for the treatment blindfold!
