Choosing the right type of rug for your horse is essential for ensuring their comfort and well-being. In this post, we’ll delve into the different types of horse rugs available and their specific uses, with a special focus on Bucas products.

Turnout Rugs

Turnout rugs are designed for use in the paddock or field. They are made to be durable, waterproof, and breathable, protecting your horse from the elements while allowing moisture to escape. Bucas offers a range of turnout rugs like the Bucas Power Turnout, which is perfect for varying weather conditions due to its unique insulation properties. Learn more here!

Stable Rugs

Stable rugs are designed for use inside the stable. They are typically not waterproof since they are used indoors, but they provide warmth and comfort. Bucas stable rugs, such as the Bucas Quilt, come in various weights, making them suitable for different temperatures. Learn more here!

Coolers and Fleeces

Coolers and fleeces are ideal for use after exercise or bathing. They wick moisture away from the horse’s skin, helping to prevent chills while cooling down. Bucas coolers, like the Bucas Shamrock Power, are designed with moisture management in mind, making them perfect for post-exercise use. Learn more here!

Fly rugs protect horses from flies and insects during the warmer months. They are made from lightweight, breathable materials to keep your horse cool while preventing bites.
