I feel a bit bad as Rosie is almost the only horse out in the fields naked at the moment!
I don't think it's THAT cold here though we have had rain. It feels chillier today however. I'm tempted to put her lightweight turnout on today as we're supposed to be getting heavy rain. Also she was absolutely covered in mud yesterday, I have no problem with that for me, I don't want to rug to keep her clean to suit me. The excessive mud tells me that she felt a bit cold and was after the natural insulation? She rolls normally and likes to make poo pancakes in her stable. This time she'd really covered herself though!
Her coat is fluffing up nicely and she's also got a lot of Summer coat coming out too.
I was thinking of putting on her lightweight turnout today just to see how she goes. I'm thinking I may be doing this out of guilt and also because I'm excited about putting a new rug on!
Are most of you rugging lately?
