Travel Boots For A Fjord?

[GinaGem]

Can anyone tell me what they use save me keep buying ones that don't fit!? Badger has stocky legs but they are short so he needs a pony length but cob width! Do they exist?

I don't boot mine to travel, but if I had to then I would bandage I think. He has stumpy legs so I don't think I would get travel boots to fit. He wouldn't stand them anyway - tried some on and he wouldn't move! Could you travel in tendon boots? My friend does this with her ArabxWB. Sorry, not much help, but I've never found boots to fit mine yet!

Glad its not just me! Yes i travel him in xc boots at the moment but wanted something with a bit more protection.

both of my fjords fit quite happily into cob sized travel boots

Do you know what make they are?

Bandage?!

Are a pain when he's excited and won't stand still and take too long to do hence using boots!

My friends fjord fits in to cob size. And hes got tiny little legs

I think his are mark todd

Fair enough, have you tried the ones by polypad? I use them there great, if you buy pony size, they should strech to fit his legs as there a soft material

Ah fab thanks - they look like they may fit as they don't seem to have the fixed hock part

Nope there great, i have a skinny, long legged wb who is a nightmare, they are really generous in sizing, he's got a cob size and really could of got away with pony but they wouldnt of been long enough, got mine from rideaway, had custom colours made took about 2weeks but worth it, standard colours i think only take a few days.
