Tack Tip Tuesday - Winter Rubs

by Samantha Matsuda
#TackTipTuesday -Spring is coming! Is your horse shedding yet? As the winter coat gets ready to shed, the spring coat isn't fully in yet. It is common for this time of year for rubs to occur on your horse. From blankets, tack, and riding.
Here are a few things you can do to help prevent and minimize rubs on your horse:
✅ Clean tack and saddle blankets. Dirt creates more friction and more rubs.
✅ A good grooming on your horse
✅ Sheepskin saddle pads
✅ Belly Guards
✅ Coat conditioner. This will help to reduce friction between the horse's coat and tack.
Have questions? I am always here to talk tack.
