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.

A nice benefit of the new nylon rugs is that they actually help to polish the animals coat. This can really help to make them look good, even without too much time spent grooming. The six hundred denier polyester outer layer is wind and rain proof and also coated with a rip stop material. This prolongs the life of the rug as well as keeping the horse warm and dry in even the worst of winter weather.

The Hero brand turn out rug is one of the most popular designs. It incorporates many excellent features such as a 600 denier polyester shell that is strong and rain resistant. The front leg arches are well cut to allow freedom of movement for the horse. The polyester lining helps to keep the coat smooth and polished. It is available in pony and horse sizes and in a great variety of colors.

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.

Most of the rugs made today are machine washable. This is a significant advantage as they get dirty very quickly. No one likes to put their horse in a dirty, smell rug. This is not only unpleasant for the stable staff but can actually lead to skin problems and other issues.
