Anybody use them as under rugs? How do you stop them slipping ?

You can buy front straps for rugs and sew them on.

On a stable rug you put it so it's on their neck, then put stable rug on and fold it back like a collar.

I got a mobile rug fixer to do that for me once.

What I do is put a cotton sheet on, then the duvet, then a rug over the top. Never had a problem with them slipping and you can have them up the neck as well.

Thanks figured it's cheaper than an under rug!

i used to use them then i bought good rugs! they do well as a stop gap for a cold horse but a good well fitting rug of the right fill is more comfey for the horse and so much easier for the owner/carer

I use them when they are clipped and it's really biting cold as an extra layer if needed.

Really, as a 13.5 tog duvet is a lot lighter than a HW stable rug with neck

They always seem so much faff to me, can't you just buy a under rug? You get decent cheap ones now.
Old y/o used to always use them on the horses, I don't think I ever saw one without it slippped back or twisted round ect.

I have a cotton sheet on under the top rug and that stops any duvet or blanket slipping.

This exactly.

Also, putting a cotton sheet on first will prevent it slipping.
