Hoof Boot Sales & Fitting
Hoof boots are the high-tech alternative to horse shoes. They can be applied as needed, providing protection while still allowing the hoof to flex and maintain healthy hoof mechanism.
Why use hoof boots?
Laminitis, navicular syndrome, thin soles, transitions from shod to barefoot, rocky trail rides, trailering stress, concussion, lost shoes, abscesses, bruises… the truth is, sometimes a hoof needs protection. There is no need for a horse to be uncomfortable when it can be comfortable and mobile in hoof boots.
I can assist with measuring and fitting boots with pad inserts for just the right fit and amount of protection needed.
I am an authorized reseller of both Scoot Boots and the full EasyCare product line. My prices are competitive with the online retailers, and the full manufacturer's warranty applies.

EasyCare, Inc. has been making hoof boots for several decades and has a vast assortment of boots and sizes for every need.
I have used EasyCare boots for over a decade and have multiple models that I use regularly. For emergencies, I keep stock of the most common sizes of EasyBoot Epics and various padding materials to make the horse comfortable. I also keep stock of the EasySoakers which are very useful for soaking treatments of thrush, white line disease, and abscesses. I have the full Fit Kit for the EasyBoot Glove, Glove Back Country, and Glue-On shell to determine the correct size in those models. I can also custom heat-fit those models as needed for the perfect fit. Any EasyCare model that I don't have stocked, I can have drop-shipped to you quickly from EasyCare. |

Scoot Boots are incredibly easy to put on and take off. They can be used both for rigorous riding and long-term as a therapy boot.
They are low profile (not big and clunky), very light weight, and easy to clean. They really shine working in arena sand to preserve sole while not interfering with dexterity. They are being used for long endurance trail riding in every type of terrain imaginable including mud and water, and for jumping. I love that they have a breakover bevel around the entire rim of the sole, just like the bevel on a well maintained hoof. I keep stock of the most common sizes of Scoot Boots and accessories. I have really put these to the test on my own horse. Prior to becoming a reseller, I rode in them daily for six months, and then left them on for two weeks straight for 24 hour turnout. With the trail gaiter on (included with the boots), they didn't rub at all and kept the hoof well ventilated and well protected. |
