I have to buy a new heavyweight turnout rug for
one of my horses this winter and I wonder what you
would recommend? My other horse has a Rambo Turnout,
which is brilliant, but a.) they don't seem to be as
widely available as before and b.) I haven't got
anywhere near as much money as I had when I bought that
one. I am wondering about a Robinson's "Cosy"
Field Turnout - has anyone got one and are they any
good?
I know that a lot of people are going for the new
Weatherbeeta rugs. They're really good and they've sold
out of both of our local tack shops!!!
I don't know about the Robinson's rug so it might be
better.
Must admit
that I am a Rambo/Rhino fan but they are expensive ....
have just ordered a cosy fleece from Robinsons which i
know is a lot different to a turnout rug but it may give
me an idea of quality when it arrives - will let you
know what I think if you want?
I bought a
new rug last year, and finances couldn't stretch to a
Rambo (my favourite), so I got a Weatherbeeta outlander.
It fits brilliantly, was in constant use last
winter and still looks like new! I think it cost
around £50.
I haven't got a cosy field rug, but did order one for my
daughters pony once, but sent it back cos it didn't fit!
It was nowhere near deep enough, and this was a 5' rug
on a 12hh pony!
