Does your Horse/Pony wear a 6'0" rug?

[3Beasties]

And if so how tall is it?

Just curious really, for some reason I have bought my yearling a load of 6'0" rugs to grow into (they were cheap

).

I'm guessing (and hoping) that will be her adult size which I think will be around the 14.2hh-15.0hh mark, am I anywhere close?

our 14.3 used to wear 6ft rugs

 

[Shipley]

Mine is 15.2 and in a 6ft rug, 14.2 pony at the yard has 6ft too but they are a little big

 

[hellybelly6]

Depends on the size of the shoulders, but my friends horse is 15.2 and takes a 6 ft.

My horse is 16.3 and takes a 7'3"!! He has large shoulders.

My 15 hander welsh cross TB wears Horseware 6'0.My yearling 7/8 TB also is in the same rugs.She will make approx 16.2-currently 15.2 ish and identical to her mum who is 16.2 and wears Horseware 6'9" when expecting and 6'6" when not!

My 14.1hh pony takes a 6ft rug, he's very long

 

[Katie__Connie]

Topsy wears a 6ft... shes 14.2hh and theyre a little big for her

 

[3Beasties]

She's a Cobby type so it sounds like I am about right then. I don't mind if she grows bigger then 15hh though as I'm over 6'0 tall.

Hopefully if she is too big for 6'0" rugs then she'll fit in Charlie's 6'6" rugs, knowing my luck she will be smack bang in the middle

my 15.2 tbx wears 6.0/6.3 depending on the make and my 18 month old 14.1.2 cob filly wears a 5.9

 

[Chico Mio]

15.1hh wears a 5ft 9 inch rain sheet, but could do with a 6ft really. 16hh needs a 6ft 3inch I think.

 

[LadyRascasse]

my 15.3 is 6ft!

 

[MurphysMinder]

Murph is a 15.1 ID x and wears 6' rugs.

 

[Bowen4Horses]

Raff = 15.1hh, and not finely built (a bit chunky round the neck area) takes 6ft/sometimes 6'3". so i think you're right. xx

 

[Mrs_Wishkabibble]

My 15 hand 18 month old Welsh x TB is in a 6' Amigo and fits well.

 

[Sarah_Jane]

Sarnie is 16hh and in 6ft

 

[Befney3]

Chilli is 16.1hh but is a very skinny TB & he wears a 6ft rug.

 

[alfirules]

both of mine wear 6ft rugs. One is a 14.1hh welsh cob, the other a 15.1hh Light thoroughbred.

15.1hh cobxtb/hannorvarian
he's in 6ft or 6ft 3'' depending on make of rug

 

[V1NN]

Vinnie is 18months old he is in 6ft that is fitting him perfectly right now (weatherbeeta) i have just bought a 6ft3 heavyweight weatherbeeta oricon that fits him prettywell to

 

[merlinsquest]

15.1hh and welsh cob cross..... measures 6' but wears 6'3"

Otherwise his bum hangs out of the back..... Uncool or what

 

[gillianfleming]

My sisters Fell pony is 13.3hh and wears a 6ft rug, my boy is 2 inches bigger and wears a 5ft6

 

[Sol]

My 11.1hh pony had a 4'3/4'6 rug that fitted well when we got him and now takes a 5'.... and he's no fatter?! It's odd.... xD

 

[Paint it Lucky]

Yes. Both mine do, which is helpfull as I just swap rugs between them. One is a 15.1hh anglo arab (who in fairness would probably fit a 5'9'' but he is happy in my 6footers! The other is a 15.3hh dutch warmblood who fits this size very well.

 

[debsflo]

15hh highland x tb is in a 6 foot rug

 

[sidesaddlegirl]

Mine, a TBx is 15.3 and wears a 6' rug although she can fit into 6'3" but it's a little long.

 

[Gingerwitch]

my 15.2 tb wears a 6ft rug but check the depth - i foolishly brought 4 saxon 6'9" rugs last year (for my other neddies) - only they are too short in the length so a nice little round belly can be seen- so now will only use them as stable rugs when it gets really cold, over a longer under rug.

I am also checking out sending them off to have an extra bit sewn on them - but if i had thought to check when i got them, i would have taken them straight back !

14.2 coloured cob in sig wears a 6'0'' rug

 

[Optimist]

You will be fine. Our 14.2 (full up - no withers) wears 6'.
