Hoof Boot Recommendations Please

[clipclop]

I'll admit now, I know next to nothing about hoof boots!

I have a horse who we are trying to keep alive. She has numerous issues and the current one to add to the collection is LGL. She's always been fed a diet suitable for LGL and there's absolutely nothing we can change about her lifestyle to help further. Everything is a balancing act with her and before anyone says PTS; we will let her go with dignity when the time comes.

Right now, she needs support for her feet. Shoes help massively but she over reaches and pulls them off and over reach boots only help prevent that so much. She has little heel, tb type feet and is sensitive skinned so after something that isn't bulky and hopefully wont rub. They ideally need to be worn 24/7.

Any thoughts appreciated :-)

There's a whole host of information on the Phoenix Horse forum

You might need to register for a free account to see all the boards, but there's one called 'The Boot Bible' cataloguing lots of different experiences with different types of boots:

Also try googling Hoof Geek, which has information about which boots are best for rehabilitation / support

Thank you very much for the links - they were really helpful. I've decided on easyboots and have emailed the company to ask for their recommendation on which style of boot will be most suitable.

Fingers crossed they help!

I used old macs for 5 years with my old lad, loved them.
