ABOUT THE HORSE
 
 

     The following information is intended to help you when selecting the proper boot for your horse by highlighting different parts of the leg that may benefit from protective horse boots. There is also a section for selecting the correct size boots for your horse. We hope this information is helpful to you when selecting boots for your horse. We will be adding more information about horses on this page in the future, so please check back periodically.
