    Frequently Asked Questions
    What denier outer is used on the Rhinegold Dottie Torrent, and is it waterproof?
    The outer is a 600 denier ripstop fabric. Rhinegold states that the materials used in all their outdoor rugs are certified waterproof, and the seams are taped with waxed stitching for added protection.
    Does the Dottie Torrent have any polyfill or insulation?
    No. This rug has no polyfill and uses a breathable cotton lining only, making it a true lightweight option suited to warmer or showery days rather than cold winter conditions.
    What is the neck cover arrangement on this rug?
    The Dottie Torrent features a fixed full neck cover that attaches via twin easy click-in buckles, so there is no separate neck piece to fit or lose.
    What fastenings and fittings does the Dottie Torrent include?
    It comes with quick clip trigger hook chest straps, a front shoulder gusset, cross-over surcingles with strengthened surcingle guides, leg straps, and a tailguard. Rhinegold advises that the trigger clips on the chest front must face inwards towards the horse to prevent them catching.
    Are there any limitations I should be aware of when using this rug in heavy rain or strong winds?
    Yes. Because this is a lightweight rug with no polyfill, strong winds can gust up and under it, and heavy rain running down the neck may penetrate slightly under the rug in very wet conditions. Rhinegold recommends keeping expectations realistic as autumn and winter approach - the material is certified waterproof, but the lightweight construction has inherent limits in extreme weather.
    Can the Dottie Torrent be used as a layering rug over a heavier turnout?
    Yes. Rhinegold specifically suggests using it as an extra layer over heavier rugs in extreme weather, which avoids the heavier rug needing days to dry out.
