Ok so my horse has been barefoot for about 9 months now and was doing really well. The last few days he has started to become footy, now i have recently changed farriers and my old farrier used to trim a lot of sole so as to have a more concaved hoof, so when my horse walked over gravel he wasnt...

I have a pair of easyboot epics for sale and have tried advertising them in the trade it as ebay take so much money from the sell. I have had no response and am wondering if any of you guys have any other ideas as to where to advertise, many thanks

Hey, I second that, its great stuff, use it on my horseware rugs but only the wash in one.

Has anyone got any experience using these boots. My horses measurements fit into a size one boot however due to the fact that he has a very upright heel I can only get his foot into a size 2. Has anyone else experienced this and if so did the bigger size work for you?? Many thanks

It really does depend on the shaoe and size of your horses feet as to what fits them best, look at there website and size guide and take it from there. My horse has a long narrow hoof so I have been advised to go for the epics!!

Unfortunately mine are but not from riding in the same way yours are. I fell off on the road today. my horse slipped on black ice!!

Its the constant cold getting to him, Im sure he will settle, cant you lunge him before you ride?? A lot of people are in the same boat, iv been lucky enough to keep mine going but hes still quite fresh, good luck, take it steady and be safe, thats the main thing.

I think others have covered almost everything you need to know however I would say that you may come to a point around 7 - 8 weeks of thinking have you done the right thing!! Do persevere with it, my horse has been without shoes for nearly 6 months and it was the best thing ive ever done. Hoof...

No I wouldnt turn him out in them, this is quite normal behaviour and they will be fine. My horse is 10 and has never been out with other horses untik I moved him 3 months ago, he went out in the field with brushing boots and overreach boots but I think knee boots could cause more harm than...

Yes Iv ridden everyday since the snow. Our outdoor arena is right outside our stable block so I have managed to ride daily although its been too icey and too much snow around for turnout!!

My horse would do this daily so i have to large size flat sided buckets that I put on the wall via a clip!!

Rhino or Rambo, all the way!!

No she will starve, Id walk and get her back in. Sorry

I would keep things like your saddle etc but rugs and that I would definately sell. I had a baby in March 2008 and still have my horse, I fought tooth and nail to keep him and still do him all myself. I think you are wise selling, you can keep your horse if you are that dedicated and love it so...
