The Best Horse Blankets
Now is the ideal time to make sure your horse’s blankets are ready to keep them warm and protected during winter weather. Although your horse’s individual needs will vary, a high-quality turnout sheet and turnout blanket should be the foundation of any horse’s winter wardrobe. If your horse prefers to stay out of the elements, a well-fitting stable sheet and blanket are other essential pieces of the best horse blanket collection.
It’s no surprise that horse blankets come in a variety of styles, sizes, and weights. If you’re in the market for a new horse blanket, but overwhelmed by the choices, Corro has the tools to help you navigate blanket shopping so you will find the ideal horse blanket for your steed. Corro has compiled the best practices for choosing the best horse blanket in its Ultimate Blanketing Guide. Below are their top picks for fall and the guide every horse owner needs to have a weather-beating range of blankets.
Turn-Out Must Haves: Perfect for the horse that still needs his paddock time no matter the weather.
Keep Your Horse Warm, Dry and Free of Coat Crud:
Horseware Ireland Rhino Original Lightweight Turnout
Let Your Horse Buck & Play: Horseware Ireland Amigo Bravo 12 Wug (250g Medium)
Stable Sheet For The Win: The best horse blanket choice for a well-fitting and warm sheet for the stall.
Blanket Him Warm and Stylish: Saxon 1200D PP Stable Standard Neck Medium
Side Note: I ordered this classic Horseware Ireland Rambo Original Turnout Lite from Corro for my horse Knight just a few weeks ago. I’m a fan of the Horseware line (and the heavyweight Horseware blanket Knight has was a donation after our devastating barn fire in California a few years ago). It’s still going strong after four years.
Also, I signed up for Corro’s text messaging service and was immediately granted a 10% off discount. That amount will come in handy on an order such as a new horse blanket.
Tip Top Turnout
Keeping your horse’s hair, tail, and hooves in top condition can be challenging during the fall as the weather changes and his winter coat begins to grow in. But, it becomes increasingly important to do so during shifts in the seasons.
Cold weather makes baths few and far between, and dry air strips a horse’s coat of its natural moisture. Plus, seasonal mud and frozen ground can wreak havoc on hooves and legs. Corro recommends arming yourself with spot remover, coat moisturizer, tail conditioner, and hoof oil as you prepare for winter. This list of must-have fall horse care products will be your best friend and help keep your horse looking, and feeling, its best.
Here are a few ways to combat the winter grooming blues!

Manage Mud in His Mane & Tail for a Knot Free Brush Out with Carr & Day & Martin Canter Mane & Tail Conditioner
