Medium weight turnout rugs or heavier?
Choosing the right rug for your horse
As you know from experience, covering your horse with the right rug is not always easy. While it can get very cold at night, the winter sun can provide a lot of warmth during the day. Additionally, while the basic temperature inside the stable is likely to be pleasant, when your horse is standing in the winter wind in the paddock, things can become uncomfortably chilly.
Here it is important to choose a horse rug or turnout made with suitable materials and, above all, the correct lining for your winter rug, to keep your horse from getting too warm or too cold and "dry"ofcourse. You should also consider whether your horse should wear its winter rug in the day, both day and night or only in certain circumstances and choose the type of fastening accordingly, as well as additional features such as tail flaps or leg cords, or a neck piece.
Turnout rugs come in a variety of weights, which range from 0 to 300 grams or more and provide different levels of warmth depending on the type of filling and the material of the rug itself.
