Hi. I use Renegades on my two fjords for going out on trail rides or drives. I have found them to be easy on and off. I rasp the boys' feet every two or three weeks. They are five and six years old and have never worn shoes. They have lovely, hard, barefoot feet. I have always done them myself. I have a farrier check them when the shod horses are done and so far, so good. Doing this has saved me a ton of money over the years!

I just ordered a pair of Easyboot Gloves for my horse, which appear to be much easier to deal with than the Easyboot Epics. HOWEVER, Easycare is coming out with a NEW boot that is supposed to be easy to put on. Tomorrow, on their website, they are going to show the first picture of it. By April 25th, they will be on the market. Maybe this is finally the miracle boot. gail Does anyone use boots to ride in? What kind? I have been advised to ride him in shoes or boots from now on, and I think I prefer boots, as we don't ride all that much. I would be interested to know what works for you and your Fjord. As always, thanks for your advice.
