Measure the horse

Depending on what rug you're looking at I think some brands come in Pony/Cob/Full etc, but a lot are measured in feet and inches...Faith has a quarter sheet but I can't remember what size that it - I could have a look in the morning of you want?

I guess if you wanted an exercise sheet (I'm assuming the ones that sit under the saddle or have a cut away bit around the saddle) then it would need to be longer than a quarter sheet that would fit the same horse

. Hmm...I'm going to have to ask google now because it's going to bug me until I know the answer!

It will obviously depend how chunky they are and the make as well - I've got a cheapy one (can't think of the brand but they do cheapy rugs as well - thats going to annoy me now!) it's 'Cob' size but it's a bit short and the girth straps are too far back which makes it even shorter.
I'm the same with Eddie Rainbow, she came with 5'9 rugs but I find 6ft to be a slightly better fit which is great as it means all Sancys rugs fit her

Faith too! Technically she should be in a 5'9 but she's just too broad around her shoulders for them to fit properly...I find that extra inch really does make a differenece

Really sorry Flea, I completely forgot to look at the size of Faith's sheet...I'll look later. PROMISE!
