help! help!

OH turned the horses out this morning, and despite me telling him twice and leaving a note on top of Solo's breakfast, he forgot to take his BioFlow boots off him.
I've just been and taken them off, it wasn't until I rang him at 10.40 and asked if Sol had been ok with him taking them off, that he said 'oh, sorry, I forgot'.
Solo has had them on his forelegs for the best part of 18 hours.
Will he be ok?

Don't know anything about magnetic boots, but dont worry, i'm sure he will be fine!!

If the boots were not rubbing or too tight (causing pressure points) then there is no reason why he should not be ok. Horses can have bandages and boots on for ages with no ill effects.

As for the Bioflow part... there is no solid evidence to suggest that the magnets do anything dramatic, or indeed anything at all.

oh ok, worry over!
His legs weren't hot or anything, and I'd left them a bit looser than I'd do his excercise boots.

Although there isn't any solid evidence about magnets working, I've been putting the boots on him since Thursday, and when he's had them on overnight, he hasn't been stiff in the morning and his legs aren't as hot- and his windgalls have slightly reduced in size.

Definately no problem from the time of the magnets being on him, the bracelets etc that they make for humans can be worn 24/7 and my dog wears her collar 24/7 apart fom an hour's walk. Does wonders for her and my mum

(both have arthritis) but did take several months to take an effect.

As others say, only thing to be mindful of is if they rub.
