This Is Where The Amigo Mio Comes In

By Marcie Goodman


Finding suitable rugs for every single thing your horse needs can be a nightmare. Getting something that fits well, does not slip and stands up to daily use is not as easy as you may think. This is where the amigo mio comes in with a design made to suit most horses and ponies, whatever their shape.

The mio is made from 600D polyester which seems almost flimsy but is as tough as any of the fabrics used for horse rugs. The light fabric combined with the patented front leg arches, allows the rug to fit snugly round any shape of horse. Once fitted this still allows plenty of room for movement like rolling, running and bucking.

The rugs are available in sizes to fit most equines and all come in the usual variations of weight and warmth. There is a choice of colours and design with a normal, or a one piece design, which has an inclusive neck. This is cut from the same piece of material as the rug and the beauty of this is that there is no seem or join across the lower neck to cause pressure or rubbing.

The rugs have double chest fasteners, two crossed surcingles in the tummy area and on the one piece two large Velcro fastenings to secure the neck, When fitted properly this arrangement secures the rug to the horse to avoid slippage and there are no loose flaps to catch on hedges and trees. All this is achieved while still allowing the horse plenty of room for natural movement like running, rolling and even throwing the odd buck.

The brand also has a fly rug which fits in the same manner and has an integrated neck to ensure full protection from the annoying insects and flies.Made from a knitted polyester with a bronze finish, this rug also protects from harmful sun rays. With it's red trim it makes a very fetching example for any horse or pony.

The range has also included stable rugs which again come in various thicknesses. With only one front fastening and a tummy strap they offer more comfort during times of less activity. With a dirt repellent surface they keep your equine warm and clean.

To complete the collection there is a fleece which can also come with an integrated neck. The colours are more subtle and they can be used for travel, layering or as a day rug as well as for cooling a sweaty horse. Finally if you prefer there is a skrim cooler rug which consists of solid and mesh panels for cooling off in the warmer weather,

So whatever your needs for your particular horse or pony, this is where the amigo mio comes in. With a rug for every purpose and a smart choice of colours, there is nothing more you and your horse or pony should require, keeping them clean, warm and protected all year round. So now you know what is available, you are able to find what you want even if it is not in your local store.
