Appropriate Usage Of The Different Kinds Of Rambo Rugs

By Arline Bradley


Most of the people in the country are self confessed animal lovers. Some are strong supporters of animal rights and will go out of their way to save an animal in need. It is no wonder that more and more are proclaiming their love for animals by keeping them as pets. Some keep pet cats, others dogs, maybe guinea pigs or hamsters. Some keep pigs, chickens, turkeys an ducks. Still, others have spiders, snakes, and even big animals like cows, horses, and other quadrupeds that they cover in rambo rugs.

The most common reason why people decide to live with animals around the house is for the comfort and companionship they give. Even without other people in the house, some are just content with having to snuggle with a pet to relieve stress from working all day. Some pets double as guardians. Their presence is enough to make a human being feel safe enough and be able to sleep comfortably every night.

Another factor why people keep animals is to augment finances. Domestic chickens, ducks, and cows produce items you can sell like fresh eggs and milk, respectively. They are raised by farm people as a source of money. Some animals, especially horses, are kept for sport related reasons and show competitions. Some even take pride of the horse breeds under their care and put them up for horse racing.

Yes, people have varied underlying reasons for having animals around the house. But whatever this may be, you should always be responsible for their total well being. You have to feed them with clean and appropriate food to keep them nourished. You should also provide them with a clean supply of water. They also need protection from harsh elements so you have to house them properly. Aside from these basic needs, you may also need to buy products for additional care.

Horses, in particular, have a different set of needs and wants. They need to have a stable where they could stay, because you obviously can not keep them inside the house. They also need a lot of room where they can move around. You can keep them fit by allowing them to exercise by running unrestrained on huge open areas like pastures. If you do not have grasslands nearby where they can graze, you need to bring them fresh forage everyday.

This makes them vulnerable from sudden changes in temperature. To offer the necessary protection, horse blankets or rugs are available in the market. There are many kinds of these rugs, and each is used to serve different functions.

During winter, horses need a turn out covering. These are made of materials that trap in body heat in order to keep the animal warm. They come in various sizes and weights such as lightweight, medium and heavy weight. Neck rugs that cover the head and the neck of the beast usually come with the turnout cover as a pair.

During warm weather, another type of blanket is used. This is called the fleece blanket. This one has the ability to soak water and sweat from the body of the animal. This makes this an ideal rug to use especially after the beast has taken a bath or has just finished an exercise routine.

It is very satisfying to care for an animal. If you love them, they will love you back. In fact, they will even love you for a lifetime.
