0 Great Value With Amigo Rugs

By Essie Osborn


Just about everyone today shops on line. It has the advantages of being very fast and easy. Most people, especially horse owners, are very busy and need to make the most of their time. Simply logging on to a sight and making a few clicks enables them to shop for just what they need. Purchases are then shipped to their home and are ready to use in a few days.

The Horseware Ireland company has a long and successful place in the horse clothing industry. They were one of the first companies to realize that modern technology could be used to improve the design and production of every aspect of rug manufacture. The Amigo rugs are extremely well made with light weight but strong fabrics. They are also carefully designed to fit properly and eliminate rubbing.

Show horses in particular need a lot of extra clothing to keep them in the very best possible condition. When it comes down to the last few horses, having the one with the beautiful shine to his coat can really make the difference between getting the blue ribbon or not. After all the hours of work and money that is spent getting to the competition it is crucial to have every possible advantage.

The new generation of horse clothing has been designed with many factors in mind. Both the comfort of the horse and the needs of the rider have been taken into consideration. The new developments in technology have also been incorporated and this too is a major factor. New fabrics are light weight and easy to wash. They are also water proof and keep the animals warm without the need for bulky under blankets.

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.

Coolers are an essential part of a busy riders kit. When a horse comes back from exercise and is sweating it will need a light mesh cooler to help prevent chills. The horse cannot have its day or turnout rug back on until it is thoroughly cooled off. A well made mesh sheet helps to wick away the moisture and keep the horse warm and comfortable. The front fasteners are typically Velcro or easy fasten snaps.

After they have been exercised a hot sweaty animal will need a mesh cooler. These help to wick away the moisture and prevent chills and muscle tie up. It is very important never to leave a horse hot as this can lead to additional complications and even colic. The damp sheet should be removed and only replaced with a stable sheet when the animal is thoroughly dry.

The fleece blanket is a great addition to any tack trunk. It can be used alone for warmth on those chilly spring or fall nights. It also makes a great liner to add under the stable rug for clipped horses in the bitter cold of winter.
