They pads are compressing enough to conform to the shape of her foot, but don’t over compress, which keep them squishy enough to provide continual comfort without over wear. The pad inside the boot has also been holding up beautifully even with the weight of this big mare. This also prevents any fungus/bacteria from taking hold and keeps the feet hard and dry. In our humid environment, we like to apply Gold Bond powder to the inside of the boot to help prevent moisture from building up when the boots are worn by the horse 24/7. Because the back of the boot folds down flat, the toe slides right in and the foot can be put down immediately to finish closing up the boot, minimizing the amount of time the horse has to be standing on one leg. We also really like how easy the Cloud is to apply to sore footed horses. The Cloud boots turn toe-in to match her feet, however, they don’t spin or twist beyond that. Her conformation is quite twisty, and was compounded by foundering with medial sinking causing her foot to twist even more. Here is her left front when we first met her:īooting this mare is really challenging. Especially one with twisty feet like hers. A boot has to be pretty substantial to hold up to a 1400 lbs chronically foundered Draft x. One of the most impressive is this Draft x mare:
We now have the boots on many different horses for daily use as part of their hoof rehabilitation. I love the Easyboot Cloud for laminitic and foundered horses. Protection for a bandage or wrap when treating an abscess or foot wound.Applied to a support limb during trimming or shoeing to help keep the horse comfortable.Use on sore footed horses as daily protection as part of their hoof rehabilitation.There are many different uses we have found for the Cloud in our daily work, the most common are: When I learned Eas圜are was coming out with the Cloud I was hoping the boot would be a good option for my clients, and I have not been disappointed! Doing hoof rehabilitation work every day, I’m always interested in anything that will help me keep the horses I work on more comfortable.
