Most modern homes are simply not complete without an animal as a member of the family. It is not unusual to visit the home of someone you know and see an array of pets like birds, cat, dogs, even rats. The more brave ones keep spiders and snakes and other poisonous creatures. Some are fascinated with bugs. Still most others have with them relatively bigger pets like cows and horses and other four legged creatures who wear rambo rugs on their backs.
We have animal companions for various reasons. One common reason is for companionship. Animals are good house mates who will never make you feel alone. They will even follow you around, wherever you may decide to go. They can also be kept for your protection. Most households have dogs to keep their homes safe and to warn them of intruders.
Another factor why people keep animals is to augment finances. Domestic chickens, ducks, and cows produce items you can sell like fresh eggs and milk, respectively. They are raised by farm people as a source of money. Some animals, especially horses, are kept for sport related reasons and show competitions. Some even take pride of the horse breeds under their care and put them up for horse racing.
Keeping an animal close by can be very hard. They, like us have different needs and wants. Aside from giving them comfortable living spaces, they should also be well fed. Buying their food alone can cost hundreds of dollars. Trips to the veterinarian to ensure their health are also a must. They need to be cared for, and to completely do you must buy animal products to aid you.
Horses, in particular, have a different set of needs and wants. They need to have a stable where they could stay, because you obviously can not keep them inside the house. They also need a lot of room where they can move around. You can keep them fit by allowing them to exercise by running unrestrained on huge open areas like pastures. If you do not have grasslands nearby where they can graze, you need to bring them fresh forage everyday.
Usually, the coats of horses grow longer as a safety feature against the cold. But if an animal is a regular show contestant, its coat needs to be trimmed for easy maintenance. This makes them cold easily, so in order to augment this dilemma, horse rugs and blankets are available in the market.
During winter, horses need a turn out covering. These are made of materials that trap in body heat in order to keep the animal warm. They come in various sizes and weights such as lightweight, medium and heavy weight. Neck rugs that cover the head and the neck of the beast usually come with the turnout cover as a pair.
If there is a rug for cold weather, there is also one for when it is warm. This is also known as the fleece blanket. It has an uncanny ability to soak up water and sweat, keeping the beast cool.
A horse is not an animal that you can use for a while and leave it in a corner, unattended. To prolong their life span, they need maximum care and attention from their owners. Remember, these beasts love you and will do anything for you. You just have to return their love by taking good care of them.
