Morning, everyone,
I'd appreciate some advice on knee and foreleg protection for my Walking Disaster Area of a retired racehorse. He has, unbelievably, been pin-fired at around 5 years old (he's just turned 9), and last October suffered a serious carpal wound that nearly messed up his knee joint permanently. Now he has caused himself a full-thickness wound AGAIN on the same knee! He wears over-reach boots as a matter of course when he"s turned out and very effective fly boots in summer (sorry everyone, I've just gone italic by mistake!!).
I have seen Westropp knee and tendon boots which look at first glance, ideal, but does anyone have other suggestions as to the best way to protect his spindly, scar-ridden legs and knees?
