The Amigo Turnout Rug For Horses

By Marissa Velazquez


There are many excellent features that make the Amigo turnout rug one of the best sellers on the market today. Horse owners love the fact that these very affordable rugs will not only keep their horse warm and dry, but will last for several seasons. In today's tough economy everyone is looking for the best value for money.

The rugs are both affordable and practical. They are very well priced and can be purchased from either a retail outlet store or on line. It is both fast and practical to order on line and often there are offers such as free shipping and clearance items. Many times waiting for a new year sale is a great way to net an excellent bargain.

For many years horse clothing was very difficult to take care of. The materials were stiff and could not be washed. This meant that they had a very short life and many were ripped and quickly had to been thrown away. Horses tend to play rough and will often grab the other horses rugs and pull on them sharply. In addition, they quickly rotted and were not waterproof.

Using a good turn out blanket will also save hours of grooming time. Horses that are ridden in the winter are often clipped to remove their heavy winter coat and prevent excessive sweating. They will need several blankets to compensate for their loss of coat. A good water proof outdoor rug is essential. There are many different thicknesses of blanket available.

A thin skinned horse such as a thoroughbred will need one of the heavy weight rugs and maybe even a liner underneath. A more rugged breed of horse will probably be fine with a lighter weight set of rugs. Even when they are in the barn they will still need stable blankets suitable to their breed.

The latest fastener system is also thoughtfully designed to not only keep the rug in place, but also prevent pressure points on the horses back. This is an important feature especially as the horses will be rolling and galloping around whilst turned out in the field. Having rugs that stay in place is crucial for safety and durability.

Turn out and stable rugs are available from most retail horse stores. Many of these places have been in business for years and provide excellent service for their clients. Their staff are very helpful and can give customers advice on which is the best type of blanket for their needs. It is not worth buying a really thick one for a small pony who will stay quite warm on his own.

There are some nice additions to the basic Amigo turnout rugs. The new neck guards are great for keeping a horse clean and dry all over. Tail guards are a nice touch especially for show horses who need to look good all the time. The light weight polyester filling is both warm and easy to machine wash and line dry.
