that don't rub, for an absolute divvy twonk of a self injurous Tb - and some protective stable boots that cover pastern area, as she kicks herself there too?
 
Thanks - she has an old raised injury she knocks, she's also just kicked the front of her pastern on the same leg, and somehow managed the outside of the same leg too (all separate incidents), 2 brushing injuries to other back leg and this morning has brushed the foreleg quite badly. She is having ongoing farriery treatment which is making her more unbalanced than usual.
 
My Boy is exactly the same, always knocking himself. i ahve the added disadvantage that he wrecks everything you put on him. I ahve tried all sorts of turnout boots and they have all ended up in shreds around the field :(
 
I turn out my TB in woof boots and over reach boots front and back.

You could also try a sausage boot.

I find neoprane over reach boots on the front don't rip unlike the rubber ones which get shredded in no time, but they are ok on his back legs.

If he gets a bit sore I only put the over reach boots on all round.

Leaving protective boots on for 24 hrs will rub no matter what you use.
