You really want to get into the smallest size without severe rasping & hopefully you are no stranger to touchup rasping - if you are, give it a try - your horses will tell you if you are messing up (another one from Paul Chapman). When you fit - talk with your fitter about what the proper trim is for the boot size you are purchasing. If you are considering Swiss boots then I advise holding off - opinion Swiss boots are great for walking but not Endurance racing.ĮZ boots are very wide in the rear & Renegades are very open - so no problem with either. None of the boots on the market are going to be sensitive to the rear heel expansion (which will occur). If your farrier trimmed so that weight is on the hoof wall/bars - go find yourself a barefoot farrier. During the de-contraction period you will be susceptible to cracks - more reason to get the weight off of the hoof wall. Most important is the trim - he/she should be standing on the sole, not the hoof wall or bars - this is the essence of a barefoot trim. If you cruise the web on the subject of when contraction is corrected you will see 2-3 months but it takes the hoof wall more like 8 months to re-grow completely. (I use for Endurance racing on hard ground just for insurance). It's pretty simple - mainly acetone but it really helps any transition Sand should be fine - if not - get a second opinion on the trim.īest product I've used is Durasole from Alvin Farrier (Alvin Texas - they ship) In those cases please refer to the Easyboot Transition.A simple answer I learned from Paul Chapman (Australia Barefoot Guru)Įasiest thing is to observe him/her walking on rough asphalt - any discomfort & you should write off anything gravel or rocky until the horse is comfortable. has an abscess and while lame still runs around or is likely to run around once the abscess has burst or runs as soon as he has boots on. We also do not recommend this boot if the horse is well enough to run around, e.g. Its main purpose is to assist with laminitic horses to get them to move again. Please note: This boot is not intended for riding. This boot is great to help mobilise horses who suffer from the above ailments and struggle to move around. It provides support and relief for horses suffering from chronic lameness, laminitis, founder, navicular and other lower limb/hoof problems. Veterinarians, hoof care professionals and horse owners alike rely on the Easyboot Rx to help horses heal and recover quickly.
