Horse Blankets Lightweight

Horses used for long distance travel require calmness and obedience in their personalities to ensure the safety and comfort of its rider. These same characteristics are important for trail riding horses. Hence, they are able to navigate smoothly through streams, branches, and other wildlife or physical obstacles with ease and calmness. But in addition to choosing the right quality of horse, it is also important to choose the saddle you use properly.

Proper training for your horse is important to prepare them for a grueling trail ride. Hence, they are physically and mentally conditioned for the job. It might take several months for you to complete the process of training your horse for trail riding, especially if your horse’s breed is not intended for trail riding.

If you plan on conquering a rugged trail, then you want a saddle that is flexible enough such that you can make your way through the trail with extreme ease. Thus, both you and the horse could easily navigate the obstacles, whatever they may be. Make sure your saddle comes with a lightweight design. It must conform to the natural shape of the horse’s back. Some modern designs come with neoprene fillers in them, which helps absorb the shock such that the rider will not feel fatigued even when the trail you are conquering is bumpy and rugged.

Horse saddle that is made up of fender leather and comes with seat jockey is ideal for use without requiring long break-in periods. Compare each brand and model carefully to find the perfect fit, without sacrificing lightweight design and maximum comfort.

When possible, opt for recognized companies or brand for producing saddles in the market. Thus, you can be assured of high quality products and innovative designs suited for the varying needs of individual riders. With a full range of types available in the market, your choice could improve your overall riding experience.

What size blanket do I need for pony?

I just got a call that my pony needs a blanket. Where she is at (the new stables will not be ready for another 2 weeks) says she is already cold. During the nights, it is getting to the mid 40′s and for the next couple of nights, it’s expected to be 30′s and even below.

I don’t know what size blanket for her or even what kind. She is a 2 1/2 year old QH about 11hh and 350 lbs.

The blankets have a number (I assume inches) and I don’t know if it needs to be a turnout, lightweight or even med weight. Does it need to be a sheet or a blanket. I know that it needs to repel water (it rains all winter here). Even the dew here is enough to soak her down.

Some help with knowing what to look for would be appreciated. I will be buying from ebay as the only 3 sources here do not carry anything along that line. Most horses here are not blanketed at all.

I wouldn’t buy off Ebay- you can’t return it. Measure your horse, enough people gave correct instructions how to do this. Then find a horse about the size of your horse and introduce yourself and ask if you can try their blanket on your horse. There is alot of variance between the different brands’ sizes. My 16hh usually wears a 78, but she does have on 76. Make sure it is waterproof if it rains alot, and not repellant! Nothing causes a sicker horse than a wet blanket. If your blanket does get wet, pull it! Your horse is warmer without a blanket than with a wet one. Throw it in the dryer, and when it stops raining throw it back on. If you want inexpensive and waterproof look into the duck canvas blanket by Wrangler, but DON”T wash it it will loose its waterproof oils. If you are real short on cash buy something cheap now and invest at the end of winter when all blankets go on spring clearance. If it is getting below 30, get at least 300D insulation. I’d get at least 600-1200D personally, but you do pay for this. If you are willing to invest about $300, then I would get a Big D or Weatherbeeta. They have each lasted me 6+ winters.
Good luck.
