My farrier tells me that shoeing my horse is probably not the best idea and I'd prefer to keep her natural, too.<BR/>But her poor feet have so many dings and sand cracks, I get so worried.<BR/>I keep painting the hoof conditioner on and it does seem to help, but I worry about taking her out on the mountain trails and gravel roads.<BR/><BR/>Do they still carry those boots in the stores? Can you recommend a brand/online resource, etc?<BR/><BR/>Thanks in advance!!Laughing Orca Ranchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03562627840013868980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771557388430184941.post-8165445633050692842008-06-03T20:25:00.000-06:002008-06-03T20:25:00.000-06:00Twinville, the hiking boots that Lyle is wearing a...Twinville, the hiking boots that Lyle is wearing are the Old Mac G2s. I keep him and Hank barefoot. Lyle has a history of laminitis and the boots are a precautionary measure for when I'm riding him - they provide stability and sole protection. I abolutely love them - they're easy to put on and very durable.the7msnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01082802012105875164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771557388430184941.post-41937648001409012122008-06-02T23:46:00.000-06:002008-06-02T23:46:00.000-06:00Lyle is such a pretty boy!

I know that when Silk was trimmed properly after a year of bad shoeing and leg injuries, the change was so dramatic. It was back in the days when I didn't know enough to ask the right questions and the vet that the barn used was a lame-o. Lyle is probably very glad to have a purpose in his life - after a week of riding every day, he'll be looking very fit. Have fun!Victoria Cummingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17267314663679137147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771557388430184941.post-29952471660572354022008-06-02T13:54:00.000-06:002008-06-02T13:54:00.000-06:00He's such a handsoem fella.

I think most horse owners strive for that to happen each ride.<BR/>Good for you.<BR/><BR/>Oh and by the way, I was laughing when I realized that your barn metal is the same color as mine! hehe<BR/><BR/>Oh and are those hiking boots for Lyle? My mare is barefoot, and I don't want to shoe her, but I've been reading alot about the hiking boots for horses who ride on rocky trails and roads.<BR/>Got any opinions?<BR/><BR/>And yes, please do a rope tying tutorial. As a new horse owner I appreciate info on everything related to horses.Laughing Orca Ranchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03562627840013868980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771557388430184941.post-501972311393636892008-05-31T19:59:00.000-06:002008-05-31T19:59:00.000-06:00That's great, he looks like a really nice horse.
