The Best Features Of Amigo Turnout Rugs

By Marissa Velazquez


There are many excellent features that make the Amigo turnout rug one of the best sellers on the market today. Horse owners love the fact that these very affordable rugs will not only keep their horse warm and dry, but will last for several seasons. In today's tough economy everyone is looking for the best value for money.

Horses must be turned out every day. Exercise is very important to keeping horses fit and well. It is also vital for their psychological well being. Horses are herd animals and really enjoy company. They should spend as much time as possible outside, nibbling on grass and stretching their legs. Even if they are not in regular work they need the daily exercise that time in the outdoors provides.

For many years horse clothing was very difficult to take care of. The materials were stiff and could not be washed. This meant that they had a very short life and many were ripped and quickly had to been thrown away. Horses tend to play rough and will often grab the other horses rugs and pull on them sharply. In addition, they quickly rotted and were not waterproof.

The new fabrics are not only rot resistant and water proof. They are also made from breathable fabrics and the six hundred denier outer shell is wind proof and lightweight. They are easy to take care of and can be washed in a commercial washing machine. At the end of the winter season most owners will take some time to properly wash their horses blankets and carefully pack them away for use the next year.

Most of the new rugs are made from strong but light polyester. This makes them not only easy to use, but they repel water and dry quickly. They are treated with a combination of products that makes them truly wind and water proof. At the end of the winter they can be machine washed and line dried. Most people find they can get season after seasons use out of every rug.

The latest style Amigo rugs are extremely well designed. They have front leg closures that allow the animal freedom of movement and will not cause rubbing or chaffing. The polyester lining is easy to clean and can actually help to polish and shine the horses coat. The fabrics are breathable which help to prevent unnecessary sweating.

Turn out and stable rugs are available from most retail horse stores. Many of these places have been in business for years and provide excellent service for their clients. Their staff are very helpful and can give customers advice on which is the best type of blanket for their needs. It is not worth buying a really thick one for a small pony who will stay quite warm on his own.

There are some nice additions to the basic Amigo turnout rugs. The new neck guards are great for keeping a horse clean and dry all over. Tail guards are a nice touch especially for show horses who need to look good all the time. The light weight polyester filling is both warm and easy to machine wash and line dry.
