Using an EasyCare Soaker Boot can help in many ways to improve the condition of your barefoot horse. At HealthyHoof.com there is an interesting article that Linda Cowles wrote about hoof soaking techniques and why you should soak.
We have recently been posting interesting articles about going barefoot. Two of the most recent ones are Why Barefoot? and Is Barefoot Better? If you are thinking about transitioning to the barefoot, Linda also explains that the Soakers will help as well during the transition.
She indicates there are a lot of reasons for soaking such as abscesses, infections, thrush, etc and soaking does accelerate healing. Also using plain water in your Soaker Boot prior to a trim can help your Hoof Care Practitioner expedite the trim. Karen also uses the Soaker Boots on her horses prior to their trim and you can read her blog on Rock Hard Feet.
Linda also has some great tips in this article about soakers and baby diapers. Baby Diapers you say? Well, I am not going to reveal anything more so check out this article. Then check out our EasySoaker boots and get the correct size for your horse. Remember spring is coming and trims will be due soon.
