Shopping On Line For Amigo Rugs

By Essie Osborn


Horse owners all over the world are happy to buy and use good quality horse clothing for their animals. Many people need at least one turn out rug and several light stable sheets to keep their horse clean and comfortable throughout the year. Using a rug saves an enormous amount of time. The animal will be clean and ready to ride at a moments notice. This is a great advantage for horse owners who are often very busy and need to make every minuet count.

Horse clothing and equipment is also available on line. There are many sites to chose from as well as e Bay and other classified sites. The great range of Amigo rugs means that there is something to fit every horse or pony. From a tiny miniature horse to a huge draft animal, there are some excellent products that not only keep them warm in winter, but also cool in summer.

These products have a number of advantage over their competitors. One of the most important things is that they are designed by real horse people. These are folks who have owned horses and ridden all their lives and really know what is needed to make life easier and keep their animals clean and comfortable. It is this insider knowledge and commitment to excellence that really makes the difference.

Horseware realized that they had to go back to the beginning and totally redesign the rug from the ground up. This mean adding much more fabric to make a really generous cut that prevents rubbing. Extra deep sides also offers a lot more protection from the weather. A one piece rug that eliminates seams is much better that one with a lot of seams that often become weak areas that are prone to rip and leak.

Another great feature of the new generation of horse clothing are the neck and tail guards. Instead of horses getting soaked because the rain was seeping in through the front of their rug, they now stay completely warm and dry. There is a choice of either integrated neck covers or detachable ones. Both offer a variety of pros and cons. Most turn out rugs come with tail guards which help to keep the animal very snug.

After exercise the horses will typically be hot and sweaty. Having a range of coolers on hand is very important. A horse can easily catch a chill if not covered, especially in cold weather. In addition the stable or turn out rug cannot be put on until the animal is thoroughly dry. It can take a while to wick away the moisture but the new line of Amigo coolers can really do the job well.

The Bug Rug is a great turn out and combo fly sheet that has proved very popular with owners. It is perfect for light skinned and sensitive animals who are really bothered by the flies in the warmer months. It also provides a lot of UV protection.

All the blankets and sheets are available in a full range of sizes and colors. There are some great fun colors especially for ponies. The younger owners love to have something fun and funky for their ponies and it also makes them easy to find in a field full of animals.
