Pleasure From Pleasure
You may not realize it, but the horse rug is actually what keeps your horse warm and dry. It provides a barrier between the skin of the horse and whatever conditions they are in. This can be used before exercise to keep them warm, after exercise to cool them down, or during exercise, when it helps to regulate body temperature. The rug also acts as an insulator keeping out dirt and grime that would otherwise get into their coat which could lead to irritation and sores on their backs.
The main purpose for using this piece of equipment is for protection against cold temperatures but more importantly sun exposure. With UV rays being so harmful for our companion animals we need to make sure they’re protected from these damaging rays at all times!
The Horse Rug for Racing and Riding
So you’ve decided to take up horse riding. Well done! But before you can ride off into the sunset, there are a few things you need to know. First up: what is a horse rug?
A horse rug is a blanket that goes on top of your horse’s body to keep it warm in cold weather and cool in hot weather. It also protects your horse from dirt and water when he’s being ridden outside, or for cleaning purposes if he’s being used for another purpose (see ‘How do I choose the right type of rug?’ below). Horse rugs come in many different types: blankets with no sleeves at all; lightweight backless sweat sheets; heavy fleece belly bands; winter coats with full cut-out legs so that they don’t interfere with saddle fitment (this style is often called ‘dressage’ due to its origins as part of an equestrian discipline); or turnout blankets which are used when keeping horses out on pasture during inclement weather conditions where temperatures might dip below freezing point overnight—or even if it just feels like it!
