i just don't like hoofboots much, they're too faffy, especially if its muddy all the time and everywhere in winter, i wouldnt want any dirt getting trapped/chafing. and ive seen some fall off mid-ride ... just not convinced at all ...
And I wish they did them bigger
If the horse is 'footie' it means there is a problem of some kind. It could be many things, LGL, Coriumitis, thin soles, an inappropriate trim... Your farrier should be able to identify the problem and make suggestions as to how to rectify it.
Er... yes I have (actually) read your posts. I assume you wanted to invite comments and I do know a little bit about the subject.
My comment is that if the horse is 'footie' there will be an underlying reason for it and you should be able to get on top of it.
Encouraging I would have thought? You sound as if you have a problem with that?...
