Rug Riper - what to do????

[HLB]

I have a purebred Arab that WILL NOT have a rug on - as soon as i put it on he start to pull at it then its in bit on the floor

- my lovely new rug

i brought a bib but they only come in one size - shire size to my reckoning- his tiny little nose looks stupid in it and he could get it court on somthing so has anyone any ideas

as he looks like a hair monster and soon i wont be able to tell the difference between him and my Tradition cob

Leave him naked? Or are you planning on clipping him?

Sounds like he's too hot & uncomfortable, & is trying to tell you. If he is so hairy, why does he need a rug?? Either clip him or leave it off.

spray lovit anti-bite on it, its really adhesive so it will stay on your rug and the horses hate the taste of it so he should leave it alone.

lovit anti-bite stops them eating everything even biting other horses or ponies (its safe to spray on them)

i got mine on http://www.frogpool.com/product-6254.htm

If he's pulling it off he probably doesn't think he needs it, so I would just leave it off for now anyway.

He is a bugger!! i wanted to put a very light fleece rug on last year to prevent wooly hair but thats now in the bin

, i then put a fly sheet on in the summer as he hates flys - thats in the bin

and he was stabled most of the summer - now i try again as hes 3yrs im backing him, hes all sweaty and needs a cooler on and a light rug of a night and hes killed that rug too

, even tieing him up dosent work!!!

I dearnt clip him, hell freeze his nuts off!!
