What temperature can a 100 gram horse rug handle?
How much a rug with 100 grams of filling warms your horse is very difficult to answer. There are several different factors that weigh in such as:
- Is the horse in a cold or warm stable?
- Do you have a horse that gets cold easily?
- Are you planning to clip your horse?
- How tough is the horse's training schedule?
Just like us humans, all horses are different - some freeze more than others and therefore wear more clothes. Try to get to know your horse and put a hand inside the rug when the horse has been wearing it for a few hours - does the horse feel warm or is it a little chilly?
If you are uncertain, a so-called liner system is a good solution - that is, rug that can be combined with each other. If you have a 100 gram rug, you can put on a
turnout rug on top, either
with or
without filling.
