Can anyone recommend any rugs which come up short in depth? Vertically challenged pony is quite long so rugs which fit in length seem to come down to his knees. He only has one rug which actually fits well, and it's seen better days. Unfortunately it has no name on it!
I was looking at the Rhino pony wugs. Can anyone tell me what they're like in depth for short fat ponies? And if anyone has any recommendations for a fleece as he's sometimes a little chilly in his stable.

Thankyou!
 
My friend has the rhino pony wugs. On her slightly long legged shetland its fine (the black one) but on the grey (short legged) it really long. She has a cuddly ponies one on this pic, and I think the rhino is slightly lower to the ground than that. On the grey its less than a foot off the ground. Those shettie are 9hh

That is how my weatherbeeta looks on our shettie lol.
I think I'll stick with shires!!
 
I use Dinky Rugs on my mini - they go from 1ft 9 to 4ft 6 ish - better proportions for those with shorter legs!!!!

Thankyou! I looked on their website and you can't seem to order online. Do you have to do it via the phone??

I really shouldnt look at their website as I'm so tempted by all the weeny things on there!!

They will e-mail you an order form, but you need to post it back - they did have a sale list a couple of weeks ago - lots of tempting things on that!!!

He is only 9.3hh. His 4'6 TO fits him well, as does my 4'9 fleece (but fleece is too long in depth). I think I'll try dinky rugs, although as someone else said you'd think smaller rugs would be cheaper lol.

my fllece was from a chunky 11.3hh!!

see what I mean... he's an odd size for a shettie, hence my problem of finding something long enough but still not too deep
