    Majority of the population are self confessed animal lovers. They are even strong advocates of animal rights and will do anything to save a furry friend in need. They even adopt some of the ones they save and keep them as pets. Some people have cats, others have dogs, maybe hamsters or guinea pigs. There are some that keep pigs, ducks, turkeys, and chickens and allow them to roam freely in the yard. Other people have larger animals with them such as cows, horses, and most other equines that they cover with rhino rugs.

    There are many reasons why people have animal companions. The first, and perhaps the most common, is for the purpose of companionship. They can be very good house mates who are dedicated to be where you are so that you will not feel alone, even for one second. They can also be raised for your protection, and this is one of the reasons why people keep dogs around the house.

    Pets will even help you to earn money. One raises chickens and ducks for their eggs. Sometimes the eggs are even allowed to hatch and the young ones are sold to interested buyers. Those who have an abundant number of domesticated livestock often sell off the others for use in the food business. Pets of a higher pedigree are bred for shows and competitions. Dogs and horses are the usual show pets for those who like to show they off to the public. Horses are even engaged in racing.

    Having a pet close by can be very hard work because they have their own needs and wants that differ according to species. A responsible pet owner allows his or her pet to roam around the house freely and let them in at night to protect them from the cold. They should also be well fed at and given safe drinking water. You will also have to take your pets to the vet to ensure their well being. You might also spend money for pet care products.

    Horses are very different from most animals that are kept in most households. They have different sets of needs and wants. They need a stable to stay in. They need to be fit most of the time, so you will have to allow them to run unrestrained in pastures and similar open spaces as a form of exercise. For food, you will have to provide them with fresh forage everyday.

    These animals have coats that are constantly trimmed. To this effect, they develop a low resistance to heat and cold. As a responsible keeper, it is quintessential to provide the beasts with horse rugs or blankets to keep them warm or cool, depending on the temperature. These blankets come in different types, each with a special purpose.

    Rugs come in different forms according to uses. The turnout rug is utilized as a shield from cold temperature. They are made out of different materials and come in medium. Lightweight, and heavyweight sizes.

    Fleece is the covering that is used opposite the turnout. This type helps horses to stay cool especially after a bath or upon finishing a workout session. The fleece is generally made from materials that are water absorbent.

    Rhino branded rugs are known for their affordability. But even so, they are still very durable and can last for quite some time. They are usually made with narrower fits.
