Getting Mud of Stable Rugs? HELP!

[ElliePippa]

Any Advice, dad left open the gate into VERY muddy field, so
Shiny, Clean Clipped Horse + Thick clay mud, which is able to get under two rugs and onto horses back = Very muddy horse, very muddy stable rugs + 1 very unhappy mummy

So really, how am I going to get this mud of her stable rug, in a reasonabley short space of time, as Pips cant really have a night with out a full neck stable rug..
Thankyou SO SO much,
xx

Okay...... This made me laugh...sorry!!

I'd whizz down to a launderette (trash their washing machines, rather than yours) one rug in each washer, put on a sooper dooper wash....then bundle in their tumble drier....

They are indoor rugs.... so I guess you won't need to waterproof them????

I'm sure there are more practical horsey peeps out there, but that's what I'd do... (and send the drycleaning bill to the boy responsible!!

)

Lol, talking about it nowm it sounds pretty funny, but when i get up to the stables, and see that muddy horse + rug, I find it difficult to see the funny side

Im not sure why, but I find it hard to work with a dirty horse + dirty stuff...Im just weird

They are pretty thick rugs (about 350g) Would that still work?
Thankyou

Ditto using a laudrette, their washing machines tend to be bigger than a regular one so a 350g rug should fit

Pressure washer or wait till mud dries and use hard broom to mud

Launderette and use a turnout rug in the stable in the meantime
