I have been working on a new comfort pad system after seeing how horse owners are using our Comfort Pads in different applications. Many of these applications can be seen in the Pete Ramey article "Boots and Pads: A True Breakthrough in Healing"
I wanted to make a system that was both easier to use and was more adaptable to different types of hoof conditions.
The new Comfort Pad System will come with three pads.
1. Frog Relief Pad. The Frog Relief Pad will have a recessed area removed from frog area. This pad will be molded in 4 different densities. When used alone it will put pressure on the sole and no pressure on the frog area. It fits snugly over the Frog Pressure Pad and the Frog Support Pad for different combinations.
2. Frog Pressure Pad. The Frog Pressure Pad has a frog area that is double the thickness of the standard comfort pad. It can be used stand alone or in conjunction with the Frog Relief Pad. This pad will be molded in 4 different densities, each density is a different color.
3. Frog Support Pad. The Frog Support Pad has a frog area that is the same thickness of the standard comfort pad. It can be used stand alone or in conjunction with the Frog Relief Pad. This pad will be molded in 4 different densities, each density is a different color.
The three pads are designed to work together and give the horse owner and practitioner many different options when trying to provide comfort. The three pads, each molded in 4 different densities, provide many tools and numerous options.
We hope to have them available in the next month. The photos below show how the system can work together.
