This Is Where The Amigo Mio Comes In


By Marcie Goodman


Horses and ponies need various rugs these days to see to their needs. With so many rugs on the market, finding ones that fit well and stay in place is not an easy task. Finding the Amigo Mio is a solution to a lot of rugging problems.

They are manufactured from a type of polyester that appears quite flimsy, yet it is as strong and hard wearing as any other material used for this purpose. The use of this light fabric means the rugs can fit snugly around any shape of horse. Added to the front leg arches which are a patented design, this produces neatly fitting rugs that still allow for all the natural movements of the animal such as rolling, kicking and galloping.

The turnout rug comes in a large range of sizes for ponies and horses. The normal range of weights are available and there are some good colour combinations. There is also a choice of normal turnout or a one piece turnout, which has an integrated neck. As the neck is part of the complete rug, it does not put extra pressure on the bottom of the neck which can rub or cause discomfort.

The rugs have double chest fasteners, two crossed surcingles in the tummy area and on the one piece two large Velcro fastenings to secure the neck, When fitted properly this arrangement secures the rug to the horse to avoid slippage and there are no loose flaps to catch on hedges and trees. All this is achieved while still allowing the horse plenty of room for natural movement like running, rolling and even throwing the odd buck.

For the summer there is also a fly rug which is of the same design, using knitted polyester material to protect from insects. This too has an integrated neck to give maximum protection. This comes in a fetching red and bronze mix with the shiny surface helping to repel the dangerous rays of the sun..

There was also a range of stable rugs with just one front fastener and a belly strap. These come in a range of weights and colours too and all have an inner silky shoulder protection. These will keep your horse snug, warm and clean whilst in the stable.

To complete the collection there is a fleece which can also come with an integrated neck. The colours are more subtle and they can be used for travel, layering or as a day rug as well as for cooling a sweaty horse. Finally if you prefer there is a skrim cooler rug which consists of solid and mesh panels for cooling off in the warmer weather,

When you really do not know where to start to get your horse the right rug, the amigo mio is a rug that is designed to fit most equines and is a good place to look. Once you find that one rug fits your particular pony or horse, you now know you can get everything else you require from the same range, in a choice of different colours. If your local suppliers do not have want you want you can now search until you find it.
