At least you had that Easyboot. That was a real ride-saver! I was surprised that it stayed on like it did, especially since it was the old style with no gator. I could never get one to stay on when I tried to use them on Tennessee.

You should have seen me trying to get it OFF when I got home! I went in the house to get a screwdriver and Gary asked what I needed that for. I said "to take my horse apart". He did not know at that point that we had lost a shoe. I was thinking about getting some of those for Queen so when/if anyone wants to ride her I won't have to have her shod just for one ride.

Can you all hear me screaming here in Nevada?

I would never be without an EasyBoot. When we trail ride, I have one in the saddle bag along with all my other junk (first aid kit, Leatherman, Altoids . . . < g > )

They fit Gracie really, really well. She cast a shoe a couple of weeks ago and the farrier couldn't get there -- it was her soft foot (the white one) and I just left it on for a couple of days. It worked great and kept her hoof from being damaged -- when she loses a shoe she splits the hoof and great chunks come off even when she's just standing around in the paddock. I didn't work her hard but we did a little arena jumping and it never moved. Didn't seem to bother her or make her move funny either.

And then I had no problem getting it off at all. It was a little fiddly getting the wire adjusted just right, but apparently her hoof was made for the things. She has a smallish oval foot in back . . . .
