Those of you with Shetlands / miniatures.

[Pinky94]

Where do you buy your mini rugs? My boy is between 3ft6-3ft9 and I can not find many places that sell them.

Buy from tackandturnout aka dinkyrugs, and eBay, just wondering if there are any other places specialising in iddy biddy rugs?

Thanks in advance.

I must have a large mini as shes in 4 3 rugs. i use ebay and Dinky rugs...

Robinsons do some really good tiny rugs thats where my miniature shetlands are from

IV horse and Ruggles I think do small sizes. I have bought a few lighter type rugs like fleeces and towelling rugs from Facebook sellers the best one being Pint Size Ponywear

I think you can get very small rhino rugs too maybe

My pony takes a 4ft rug and I have found a couple of foal rugs deep enough one being a weatherbeeta and the other a Masta

Do they need rugs?

 

[jumbyjack]

I've had some really nice ones from Ruggles.

mine are NAKED!

There is a group on facebook where people rescue and rehome ponies in scotland and they were saying there was a place on ebay that does tiny rugs, but I can't find the post with the link now!

Dinky rugs.....but again, none of mine have been less than a 3'9 and you can get them fairly readily in places like robinsons or ebay.
My oldies always wore rugs, as they get older and the rain gets worse they can get awful rain scauld.....far better to rug even if its just lightly.

Mines clipped out because he has grown such a mammoth winter coat and with it being so mild down here he's been sweating like a pig so it's all came off.

Thank you everyone that's suggested so far.

Mine grows his own rug, however should he ever require one when he's an old man, I've a perfectly good foal rug from weatherbeta that will fit him.

Ours has just been measured for a 2ft3 rug.....

[Sparkles]

Countrywide near us currently have some rugs which range from 3ft+

Aww I wish archy was that small still! He's just a hairy beefcake now

 

[pip_dog]

I would only consider it in really really snowy or Wet and windy weather. My Lilly is a pudgy hairy mad thing!

Charley is hard done by. His coat gets about 3" long and I have never seen him wet or cold yet.

The snow isn't that deep actually, Charley is just a shortarse.

We use weatherbeeta foal rugs or buy Shetland rugs that cover him from ear to fetlock joint, he looks very cosy aswell

I bought my girls their rugs from www.equineclothing.co.uk they make them from tiny to plain diddy! Not badly priced and nice quality too. Otherwise IV Horse do them too. Foal rugs won't necessarily fit just because they are small.
