Bodypower Multi Purpose 2 Tier Dumbbell Rack

Advantages: Easy to put on, durable, cheaper in the long run than shoes
Disadvantages: Expensive one off cost, had to order mine from Arizona so had to wait a few weeks

...I decided to buy a pair of the new style Old macs G2 boots for my horse as he was finding it difficult having shoes on his hind feet due to arthritis (He's 31). The old style boots werent the right shape for his feet so I forked out £101 on the G2 boots direct from Easy Care Inc. in Arizona as no one in the UK did them. The weigh just over 1lb each which is great for Pegasus' arthritis and great for me carting them around! They are easy to slip on and I dont need to lift his feet too high to be able to put them on, i can do it with his foot inches from the floor. They last roughly 8 shoeings (Aprox £480 for 8 full sets) so money wise they are great value. Obviously if you dont use them often they last much longer, but you do need to keep their hooves trimmed and file them down if there are any rough edges which could damage the boot... Read review

Advantages: No need for metal shoes
Disadvantages: No information leaflet in the box

.... It is recommended that the boots are cleaned after every ride. If Old Macs become saturated they should be allowed to dry naturally. I quote ‘DO NOT expose boots to naked flame (!) or use artificial heat to dry as this may damage the upper and outsole materials.’ So far I am very happy with Old Macs Multi Purpose Horse Boots, but as stated above this is just an initial impression. I found it easy to choose the correct size, and they were fairly easy to fit. As long as they do the job and allow me to keep Rosie barefoot comfortably I will remain happy with them.
