Old Mac's help Sonny Get Back on His Feet!

We recently received a touching testimonial from Marty Garrison about her horse Sonny.  After his trusty farrier joined the service and set off to Iraq poor Sonny went through some serious waves of hoof issues.  He was completely lame until owner Marty learned about Pete Ramey and Gene Ovnicek barefoot trimming techniques just by doing a Google Search!  Through her internet surfing she learned about EasyCare and our variety of hoof boots.  Sonny's boot of choice are Old Mac's!  Marty even found a Hoof Care Practitioner by using our Practitioner Search!  Sonny is now 25 years old and trotting around with some very happy hooves.  Read the full story here!

How Easyboots Saved Bryce Canyon for Bubba!

Here's a great testimonial that shows just how helpful Easyboots really are. 

In 2006, our first season, the Bryce Canyon 5-day ride had been the personal best for me and my Spotted Saddle Horse, Bubba G. This year I wussed out on him on Day 3 at Fort Schellbourne (a snowstorm in June!) and so we got to Bryce this year with high hopes, only to be derailed by losing a front shoe on Day 1 and Day 2. Both days we made it through using the same Easyboot that let us complete the 2006 Cold Springs 100 after losing a shoe at 75 miles, but we needed a way to go out with confidence the next 3 days.

The answer was simple: instead of using an Easyboot as a “spare tire,” Karen and Garrett foamed on two Easyboots in front. Bubba and I took it easy Day 3 getting used to our new outfit while improving our time and placing (and also passing 3000 miles in 21 months). We did Days 4 and 5 in under seven hours each, with ease and with confidence in our ability to make reasonable speeds in tricky footing without unreasonable risks.

The cost and effort of installing the Easyboots foamed in place was minimal; the peace of mind that came from knowing Bubba was protected on the trail was priceless. If there is a tough trail in front of you, Easyboots can smooth your way. Bubba and I sure won’t leave home without them.

Easyboot Epics Help a Mare Ride Comfortably Again!

We've received some touching stories about what EasyCare Hoofboots have done to help improve the life of horses in need.  Read below to see how Easyboot Epics helped Camille Estrade and her horse Jardineria ride comfortably again.    

 

In November 2005, veterinarian found grey mare Jardineira being "navicular".  I took the decision of taking off the iron shoes, instead of changing  into orthopedic iron shoes: going barefoot, let her the possibility of curing her herself. We went through a hard winter of transition and recovery (yes, recovery, slow but true!), where any trail ride would find her painful and sensitive: her feet were not strong enough. I bought four Easyboot Epics, and we went riding comfortably on any ground, activating blood circulation by long rides allowed by the boots... Today, one year later, the grey mare is NOT navicular anymore, saved, competing barefoot in hunter and eventing.... Competing endurance still, with the Epics.  Back to the wonderful, happy, inventive, crazy partner she used to be "before."

Thanks so much, your product helped so much!!!! True product that works through fast rides and distances +++++
