For my horse i put rug on it all year round as it is old and clipped. If you have a horse that has a thick coat then it would be ok in the wind although it would be a good idea to put a thin rug on during the rain.Also when it is extremely cold then you need a good thick rug to stop the animal from getting cold. It is quite obvious for a horse that is clipped - rugs on for cold days and when its very cold then put a thick rug or rugs on. If you have a choice of what time of year then it would be winter and other cold mnths but generally just the days that is cold and wet. Hope i gave u an idea..x

There are about three basic types of horse blankets (rugs). Summertime is perfect for fly sheets, cotton stable sheets or nylon sheets. Winter is for stable blankets, with or without liners and hoods and turnout rugs or all-weather turnout blankets, with or without hoods. For extra warmth or when showing, sleezies and horse jammie's are great for under stable blankets or cotton sheets and hoods. And of course boots and leg wraps for every occation, preferably matching the horse's 'binky's'.
