So it's getting to that time of year when I need to think about re-proofing my girls rugs, I have tried Nikwax, the one that goes in the washing machine with the rug, but it didn't make it completely water proof (Maybe there isn't such a thing!) as the rain still seemed to get through where the...
So... I have just invested in this, https://www.totallysmart.co.uk/prod/super-grooma and some Pig Oil + Sulphur, just need to work out now how much to apply and how!! Lets hope it works!! If not I will be trying out the Magic Brush! Thanks so much for all your input today, much appreciated! x
I wonder if any one has any suggestions please, I have a Shetland X Dartmoor, she is 7 years old, and will only tolerate being brushed on her legs for a very small period of time, she is out by day, but the ground here is very wet in Devon so when she comes in at night she has muddy legs, by...

Thank...
I have always rugged my previous ponies, stable rugs, turnout rugs etc....they were used to it! But I now have a 17 year old Dartmoor pony, who apparently has never been rugged, now that she is with us she lives in at night, but out by day, and the last couple of days we have had torrential...
