Put it on, then paper then gamgee stuff and bandage overnight. Horse tries to lick it off otherwise! And always put travel boots on/put in stable straight afterwards, so would either stick to beding or boots otherwise!!
ah... well after our event today i thought he had a little swelling in his hind leg, so i put ice tight on that and then put wet brown paper and plastic on it, then covered with gamgee and bandage. but on the front i put the ice tight as a procotaion and just left it bare! ah well hes got plenty of hay!
With the Ice tight I'l put it on at the competition/place of strenuous work then put newspaper (so it doesnt mess up my gamgee) then gamgee and bandage. Travel him home, leave it on for an hour while I sort out lorry etc, unbandage, take it off and hose it off then turn him out (he lives out)
