This presentation is going to explore what Laminits and Founder mean to the horse and hoof, how they can be recognised, how they can be differentiated from each other, how they interrelate, how they can be treated, and most importantly, how they can be prevented.

Simply take a sharp hoof knife and cut off the excess to have a nice flush finish. Depending on the length setting you end up with, there might be excess boot extending past the heel strap.Basically, this prevents the screws from accidentially coming undone and loosen the fit. When happy with the settings, take the boot off and take out the bottom screws one at a time and apply some locktite, then screw it back in and tighten.Then take it for a test ride or inhand walk to see if the settings are good.Check the heel strap height position and adjust if needed, e.g.lift the foot and tighten the screws underneath.then adjust the heel length specificly to the hoof,.Basically, select the size for the width of the hoof,.The boot itself is quite easy to apply and remove from the hoof.

My first impression was, wow, if I as a practitioner struggle with this already, how are customers going to get on with this?īut then, it all changes when the boot is actually on the hoof. I have to admit, when I first had the new Easyboot Fury Heart boots in my hand, naturally, I tried to fasten the straps in the front – to my surprise, it was quite tricky.

Just how easy/hard is it to fasten those straps?
