By Kendra Hood


Amigo horse rugs have receive outstanding reviews from owners all over the country. They are carefully designed to fit the exact contours of a horses body. In addition they are made from only the highest quality fabrics that will last for many years. Most of the products are also machine washable making them very easy to keep clean.

Show horses need an extensive wardrobe of blankets, coolers and rugs. They need to look their best at all times and really stand out in the show ring. Having the right types of rug for each occasion is crucial. During the winter horses will need a warm, water proof turnout rug. This must be made of material that is strong as horses do tend to play rough and can easily snag their blankets on a fence.

Because of the problems associated with working horses in winter most people opt to have their animals clipped. Clipping removes the thick heavy hair and allows the animals to be exercised in comfort. Yet once their warm protective hair has been removed they need at least one rug to keep them warm. In the past few years an new range of light weight but very warm clothing has been developed for horses.

Even horses that are stabled need to be turned out into the field every day to stretch their legs and let off steam. This also allows them to socialize with other horses and prevents boredom. A good turn out rug is very important. Owners should look for something that is not too heavy, but still provides wind and water resistance. Horses that live outside all the time will need a rug that is totally water proof.

The Amigo company has been at the forefront of horse clothing manufacture for many years. They have gone back to the drawing board to develop a totally new line of rugs that are cut to fit a horses body shape properly. This eliminates the old problem of rubbing and chaffing that left many horses with bald areas particularly on their chest and shoulders. The new style of rug is loaded with great features that makes it very user friendly and easy to care for.

The traditional front buckles have been replaced with an overlapping Velcro fastener which is easy to use especially on cold days. It also eliminates the pressure that was a problem with the older styles. The rug is held in place by simple straps called surcingles that cross under the horses belly. Again they do not cause any pressure points and are easy to use.

It is now very easy to shop on line. In fact, most people do more of their shopping on line that at a retail outlet. If they have questions the customer service department is standing by ready to help. Measuring horses for a rug does take a few minuets but the staff will be able to help and offer advice.

Equestrians can be assured that an Amigo rug is a good buy. The cut and contours are made to fit the unique shape of the animal and eliminate pressure points. The new range of winter turnout blankets is getting excellent reviews as they are warm, lightweight and affordable.
