Does anyone have a pair of hoof boots for sale? Size 5" long and wide. I'm struggling to find some that will stay on at faster paces as my mare does not have the ideal shaped hoof for boots (tb with low slung heels).

I hear these are very good and stay on, not tried them myself, as mine are past the boot stage.. you can get them in the UK

I have those boots ^

So far, I've hacked down roads in walk and trot and ridden in all paces in a grassy field. I've also jumped in a sand menage in them. I've found them initially quite confusing to put on, but they stay put very well. The reason I went for them was my mares unusual foot conformation (or so you'd think from the boot sizings!) and so far they don't twist or move an inch. I've nicknamed them her trainers as that's what they look and seem like to me.

My only fault with them is the dampening pad doesn't stay put and twists! If anyone has any suggestions as to keeping them in the right place, I'm all ears.
