That said, I tend to view a lease, with...

Mine seem to be holding up well, though one pair seems not to be as rigid in the splint area as the others.
I went down one size from Woof boots...

Oh argh. I've known a few horses who have had splint bones removed, but only front ones. All recovered very well.

Are they more in use because more people are clipping the insides of their horse's ears? I clip mine flush, which keeps the bugs out of her ears, at...

- Biography:
- Born in 1964, returned to riding in 2006 after a 25 year break. My original goal was to event -- at a low level -- before my body gave out. It did... so I now focus on enjoying my horse (a palomino Morgan mare born 1998) and dabbling in dressage and trail riding.
