I thought the poll was meant to be how many rugs per horse not how many rugs do you have?

It is but I didn't stipulate you have to be able to read :D

My fault :o

:D

Still very interesting... I know who're the rich HHOers now tee hee!
 
Wait... *checks to see if any crumble n custard left from armas v DD fight*

Yes! There is a prize!!! Apple crumble & vanilla custard! It's very yummy!

Might even be some port too......
 
I hate to think how many I have - enough to fill 5 huge boxes and a wheelie bin! I have a room for nothing but rugs... that says it all really. I only have 2 horses and 2 little ponies at the moment...

for some reason one of my old ponys turnout rugs aswell. i rarely use the fleece or heavy weight turnout, but you cant just get rid of rugs!
 
So, Blossom has 4 rugs- one came with her, one bought and 2 hand me downs from Binky. One MW combo, 2 MW and a LW.

The other two each have:
1 x no fill
1 x 100g
1 x 180g combo
2 x 200g
1 x 300g
1 x 300g combo
1 x stable rug
1 x stable rug with neck

Also have a couple of tatty spares floating around.

Now, if I were to count the fleeces etc, that number might rise considerably :o

Starzaan - wow!
 
I inherited a lot and never throw any away so I had more than 40 (and only 2 that would remotely fit the little companion) - I did sell quite a few in the autumn but still more than 20 for Polo! He's used 2 this winter so far !!

This was the minimum I could get it down to!

Turnouts - spares for if one ripped/ soaking
heavy (x2), med (x2), med with neck, light (x3), light with neck (x2)

Stable - virtually never used!
heavy (x2), light (x2), combo underrug (x2)

Other
Thermatex (x2), fleece (x3),

I do know I have a problem !

90 rugs? Cheeses!!!

Maybe I should have asked "how much have you spent on rugs... "

I have 2 rugs that I have bought and a hand-me-down. Total cost about £60. I know I may have to invest in a new one sooner or later...

If the average rug was, say, £50. If you had 100 rugs that's £5000. Granted, that it might not seem like much to some people and if you can, why the hell not!!?!!

I feel better now at contemplating a rug that's abut £150 as my "investment" rug... Seems cheap!!! :D

If it helps I've built my collection up over many years, most expensive was about £120 which is my hw turnout - I'll go cheaper on stable rugs but will always buy the absolute best I can afford for turnouts as have found in the past cheap ones aren't anywhere near as waterproof.
I'll maybe only buy 1-2 rugs in a year and am getting to the point where I only have to buy to replace badly torn ones.
 
P.s. if anyone is running out of room for rugs....... I have space for a high neck turnout, heavyweight, 5'9 only please. Mates rates... Wont charge for storage... :D:D
 
I've got 14 for one horse...but Ive had her 8 years and she wears them all, ones she doesn't wear I sell :)

1x heavy weight turnout with detachable neck.
1x heavy weight turn out
1x medium weight turnout with detatchable neck
2x medium weight turnouts
2x light weight turnouts
1x heavy weight stable
1x under rug
1x medium weight stable
2x fleeces
1x thermarex
1x fly rug (which I need to sell as she's never worn it!)
 
Thankyou starzaan my 90 rigs for 5 now looks pathetic so I don't feel bad about having a little sneak onto tinterweb to look at rugs! :D
 
Thank you very much! I LOVE pudding. Pudding is the best part of every day.

I am here to make husbands feel better about their wives' rug obsessions.
 
Good grief! I thought people were exaggerating when they said they had a rug fettish. :eek:

I own the grand total of two middleweight rugs (one's a spare) and one cooler. The sheep trashed my rainsheet by attempting to wear it and then do several laps of the field running away from it. :rolleyes:

Had a very clear mental image of the sheep then.... *grins* that is quite funny!

Smile on face now... will brave rain, wind and mud.
 
When big Ruby was PTS and I came to sort out her stuff, she had over 20 rugs:rolleyes:, poor spotty has about 6 and all second hand, but seems to have survived so far
