Hi, cheers for you reply - good recommendation I already have the hoofeeze as I finally invested in one last year after seeing it in the Your Horse review a few years ago. I think it's a really great poultice boot - it offers good protection and makes the job so much easier! It has been...

Poor lad, I'm sorry to read he's still not right, you must be so worried. Hope the results today are positive.

Hi, have you thought about a Hay Bar? I haven't tried one so I can't really recommend it, but I quite fancy one myself as they seem like a good idea. I hate wrestling with nets and he's way too messy to eat from the floor! I think they are quite expensive though.

Hi, I used to be in the nappy and tape camp until I discovered the hoofeeze. Poulticing is so much easier and quicker now! I've even turned him out in it, although when he went kicking his heels up round the field it did come off. I'd definitely recommend it though.

Hi, thanks for you reply. The marquis looks really good in the glossy brochure they sent me and seems to do the job I'm looking for. It's really great to hear from someone who is actually using them though as of course the manufacturers are going to say they're great! I'm especially...

Hi, I think that's lovely that you were still enjoying hacking out together when he was 34 and I'm so pleased for you that his feet are now ok. I'd be interested to know how you get on turning him out in boots.

Thanks for the quick reply and for the hoof boots website, it's really good to hear your experiences with this. If you don't mind me asking how did you make the transition from shoes to boots/barefoot and did you have any issues with cracked feet, sore feet, bruising etc along the way. I'm...

Hi, I loan a 20 year old gent who has a couple of problems in front. He is a little arthritic in his coffin joints and also has flat feet and sensitive soles. At this time of year it is always a battle to keep him sound because of bruising or abscesses – thankfully his arthritis has been...
