Dear Genie,
Hi. I just had my horse do a three day trip from FL to VT. He has front shoes
only. I normally ship with standing wraps, but, because he was on such a long
trip I didn't want his legs all wrapped up, and have the issue of them not
being able to breathe if you will. I put bell boots on all four legs. And he
was just fine. I also did this when he went from VT to FL, only on the trip
down, I only put them on his front legs.
If she were to step on a piece of velcro and pull the boot off, it becomes
very dangerous at that point, especially if the shippers aren't going to rewrap
polos or any boots...It is better for them anyways to have their legs beable to
breathe if you will.
Good luck...

Hello,
I have been so busy that I haven't read the list much lately; I hope
to get caught up soon.
I have a question. I am looking for shipping boots, both the short
kind that come up to and the tall kind that come over the hocks, for
my Fjord who is 14.1 medium build. The ones that I've tried of the
shorter kind that are pony size are the right height but are not
large enough around. Any suggestions?
I am good at wrapping her legs but would like the option to use
boots. As we are moving this summer and Pjoska will have to make the
trip from Michigan to Connecticut and I would like her well
protected. Shippers will not rewrap legs with polo wraps. Thanks in
advance for your help.
