Glue on shoes

[koscat]

Hi

Do they still sell these and if so where could i find some?

You cannot get them over here in Spain as I've looked!!!

Difficult to tie the farrier down over here as he is very busy so a pair of these would be ideal.

Thanks in advance!!!!

Is this so that you can fit them yourself? Wouldn't you be better going barefoot? They are very expensive and you have to include the glue, glue gun, degreasers etc. In the UK you wouldn't be allowed to do it, don't nknow about spain.

I would google farrier and see what comes up

having watched a very experienced remedial farrier swear and curse over putting the Imprint plastic shoes on, I would say only try if you have a very patient horse and you've lots of money for the invariable mistakes!

If you google imprint you'll get to their site, and can order direct from them, i had to use them for about 6 months, very frustrating, had the feet looked at and trimmed regularly, but reglued myself too often.

Forgot to mention.

Where we ride is mostly granite and up mountains. No grass at all!

Would prefer to go barefoot but he has has been shod all his life and dont think he would like walking on all the granite with no shoes on!

Thanks so far though!!!

How about trying hoof boots instead, if you can't get the glue on shoes?

Don't go for Imprint shoes they are specialist lammi shoes and work out at about £200/pair. They are cheaper plastic shoes around.

Use Old Macs hoof boots instead
