I've never had a littlie before and he came with nothing so needs a new wardrobe for the winter, never needed an excuse to spend money :D He's a yealing and I guess normal Sec A shaped so can anyone recommend a good fit of rug and how small should I start off with roughly ie 4'3".

It will be lovely not having to manhandle 6'9"'s this year.

Thankyou.
 
I usually order Horseware Rhino Pony rugs for my Sec A, this Summer however I wanted to buy her a lightweight rainsheet as she only had an old shires one. I ordered the Amigo Pony 600d Lite (all the amigos fit the same regardless of weight) due to the fact I loved the green/light green colour. It fits beautifully, probably better than her Rhino heavy and medium weights with and without necks and her Rhino Wug.

When it comes to my horse I always order Rambo as I have not liked the fit of Amigos on my bigger horses, but for the Welsh A I was really impressed with the fact it fitted her shape better than the Rhino Pony.

As a guide my 11.2 h is in a 4,9" and she is fully grown and correct in weight.
 
My aunts little welshy just has robinsons rugs. Got them in the sale last year. They weren't any more than £20 each and fit well. He was fine with a 200g turnout and stable rug when needed. He is 12hh I think and 4'9". He is rather "rotund" and chunky so if finer would fit 4'6 rugs
 
I used the cuddly ponies range, think they are by weatherbeeta? for our old Sec A they fitted well and are fairly cheap to buy, oh and we had size 4,9 for him
 
Hi. I think my section A was around 3'9" at that age, he's only 4'6" now as a 4yo. Cuddly ponies rugs are the best fit if you can stand all the pink, I've gone off them since they stopped making rugs in blue. I've nice fitting Masta, Weatherbeeta and Kingshead rugs too. Amigo rugs are also a really nice fit.
I've had some nice Derby House rugs but you have to be careful as some of their rugs either have neck holes to fit section As but belly straps to fit a pregnant Shire or vice versa and yet other rugs of theirs are a great fit!
Happy shopping x
