Hi,
As many of you can understand, wintering with horses is horrible in terms of deciding what rugs to use etc. I have recently bought a horse who is used to living out, and hasn't actually had any proper owners before me - he was used in a film yard and lived out. This year, because I've bought him, he'll be stabled at night. I don't have much experience with stabled horses in winter, and i have a dilemma. I don't know what kind of stable rug to invest in for him!
He's used to living out, and is an irish sports horse X mix, has quite a few extra pounds, and will probably wind up trace clipped. Is there anything anyone would recommend?
Thanks,
Jules
