Horse Rug, Fleece Rug
Horse rugs are protective coverings for horses, designed to keep them warm, dry, and clean. They come in various types such as turnout rugs, stable rugs, and fly sheets. Choosing the right rug depends on your horse's needs, the weather conditions, and the level of activity.
To choose the right size horse rug, measure from the center of your horse's chest to the end of its rump. Horse rugs should fit snugly without restricting movement. Check size charts from different brands as sizing can vary.
The best type of horse rug for winter is a heavyweight turnout rug. Horse rugs in this category offer insulation and waterproofing to protect against cold and wet weather. Consider your horse's coat thickness and stabling conditions when selecting a winter rug.
Horses need rugs to protect them from harsh weather conditions and insects. Horse rugs help regulate body temperature and prevent skin irritations caused by rain or flies. The choice of rug depends on climate, time of year, and your horse's specific needs.
You can wash horse rugs at home if your washing machine is large enough. Use a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners. Always check care labels as some horse rugs may require professional cleaning to maintain their waterproof properties.
