Rug Fill / Weight Guide

The thermoneutral zone is the temperature range where the body can maintain its core temperature with little to no extra energy expenditure. For humans, this range is quite narrow at 21–28 °C, but for horses it’s much broader at 5–25 °C.

This difference means we should avoid rugging horses based on how cold we feel. Over-rugging can lead to serious health issues, including metabolic problems and thermoregulatory dysfunction.

Tips for Choosing a Winter Rug Weight

  • Clipped horses may need a heavier gram fill to stay comfortable.

  • Remember: horses warm themselves more easily than they cool down under a rug. If unsure, choose a lighter rug.

  • Check your horse regularly to make sure they are neither too hot nor too cold.

  • Consider your horse’s age and natural ability to stay warm.

  • As a general guide, rugging is usually appropriate when temperatures drop below 5–10 °C, but always adjust for your horse’s individual needs.

  • Always ensure rugs are waterproof. A wet rug is worse than no rug at all.

This is an indicative guide only. Always take into account factors such as wind chill, your horse’s age, weight, and condition.

A sponge in disguise: reusable, antibacterial & compostable wool tote for your HERDD shampoo bars & a nifty pouch to store & dry them in ☂️

Paws for a meowment, & prick your ears – these totes are crafted from 100% natural recycled, biodegradable NZ wool fibre, to make bath time with your HERDD effective & fun ~ we’re proudly supporting the NZ wool industry with innovative ways to use versatile NZ wool… here’s how you can too:

🐑 Enhance lathering & exfoliation during bathtime with our tote

🐑 Use with or without your HERDD shampoo bar inside

🐑 Adds grip to slippery bars

🐑 Using a tote helps make your HERDD shampoo bars last even longer

🐑 Lasts approx. 20 washes, & is compostable at end-of-life

🐑 When your bar gets low & bit-sy, put the bits in the tote & bath!

🐑 NZ made from recycled NZ sheep’s wool

🐑 All in a home compostable box

As these are made of 100% natural fibres, they will wear & change shape with use, & are meant to be replaced after ~20 washes. Expect some shedding & simply replace once worn – dispose of as you purr-fur {in the compost, rubbish or reuse as a seedling pot}.

Instructions; it’s pawsitively easy!

🐑 Wet the coat & tote with warm water, & rub over your pet in circular motions, getting the foamy lather started

🐑 Remove bar from the tote & set aside {or alternatively, leave it inside for a really deep clean with lots of bubbles}

🐑 You have a foamy exfoliation sponge, keep it damp to maximise the cleansing lather & foam

🐑 Rinse pet’s coat thoroughly, & finish by drying

🐑 Store bars inside the tote, hanging up over the laundry sink or outside to dry out between uses {you don’t need to rinse}

🐑 Use a tote to store each HERDD bar you have in use {we have a bar fragrance for every mood!}

🐑 PS: the lanolin scent {it’s mild & natural!} will fade with air & sunshine, & become impurr-ceptible after awhile
