Fall is upon us when the temperature drops and the leaves start to change color. It is this time of year that you should start thinking about buying your horse a turnout cover. How do you choose the right one for your horse?
Consider these things when selecting a turnout blanket to protect your horse’s head. The size of the blanket is the first. To ensure the correct size, you will need to measure your horse. You should also consider the blanket’s weight. A blanket should be heavy enough to keep your horse warm but not too heavy to make it uncomfortable.
The blanket’s fabric type is another important consideration. A fabric that is breathable will be the best for your horse’s health. Fourth, consider the cost of the blanket. A blanket should be affordable but of high quality.
You now know what to look out for in a turnout cover, so you can start looking around. You have a few options when it comes to finding blankets. First, you can go to your local tack store. The second is online. There are many blanket options to choose from and you can compare prices before buying.
These are the things you should keep in mind when shopping for a turnout cover. These will help narrow down your options and ensure that you find the right blanket for your horse.
