Do you use them?? What for?? Which ones??
Have had a bit of an incident tonight with my old boy. Went for a hack had a good canter along the riverbank through long grass rough ground etc then the clumsy old thing goes and falls over flat on his nose walking back down the road.
He has arthritis but doesn't seem to trip that often.
He got back up straight away and isn't lame but has taken the skin off both his knees. I think I came off worse. Had reins at buckle end and no stirrups at the time (its not a busy road, just a lane) and came off over his shoulder and cracked my head on the ground. Have a nice headache now.
Do you think that knee boots would be a good idea?
