Where can I find decent rugs for the small ponies?!

[Stenners]

I'm looking for a turnout rug for a 11.2 Dartmoor. I liek the Gallop Ponie range but everything in 5'0 is out of stock! I'd like her to have something with a neck on in the stable as her stable is exposed to the elements and also something thicker than a 50g on when she's clipped outside!

I've been looking at the Shires Tempest but again hard to find anything in the right size. What rugs do you all recommend for your ponies that won't break the bank?

Amigo proper pony are good IME

I used Dinky Rugs for my Shetland and they go up to 5'0

Ruggles are good for tinies

I bought a Maxima small pony rug at HOYS and it's good quality and a great fit, especially round the neck.

Ruggles are good for little ones.

I posted a similar question the other day - you might find some of these replies useful https://forums.horseandhound.co.uk/threads/rugs-with-necks-on-small-ponies.842900/

Try Barnstaple saddlery they usually have ponie rugs in stock

Ruggles are the best by far, and they last years.

Yep I'm trying to find a H/w with a neck for mine and nobody has any. I have ordered one from Viovet, but chances of it actually arriving? Slim

Is your pony narrow or wide? I need narrow.

They are also apparently sold out in 4’9 and 5’ across the board
I did buy a ruggles after reccomendation and I was super impressed at first. Lovely quality feeling rug.
However the clips on the front have already needed replacing after little use, it’s had little use because the pony gets. Huge wet patch across the top of her rump. I think it must leak at the seam or something maybe. It’s ok as I use it in conjunction with a thicker under rug now, for the money I’d like better really though!

Rhino pony rugs were all we used when we had littlies!

Very narrow she's a 6 month old section A and has a lot of filling out to do.

I vote ruggles

Mark Todd for my Dartmoor's. I got them from Redpost. Reasonably priced, lots of styles/combinations and mine have lasted well and they fit well.

Don't get one from Hy Equestrian, no matter how cute the print is!

 

[Stenners]

Thanks all! I guess I'll have a look at Ruggles but they don't seem to be the cheapest either!

Best turnout I have for my Welsh a is his heavyweight rhino, amazing quality and fits like a glove. All his Amigos are really good too. He’s got a new swish heavyweight stable as I couldn’t find anything over 300g and he’s fully clipped, it’s a great rug but I did go down a rug size, his normal size would have been way too big.

We use Shires Tempest, Maxima and Ruggles on our dinky Welsh Sec A. Maxima only do detachable necks though I think.

They're not but they're worth it.
Actually pony shaped, fit well and good quality. If you get one in the sale I think they're a bargain
