Easy Care Boots                         http://www.easycareinc.com/   

I am an Easy Care distributor. I can tell you from personal experience that these boots hold up to the toughest of conditions. Several clients, of mine, in Custer South, Dakota can attest to the fact that these boots keep their horses feet protected when riding on the rugged rock of the Black Hills.

The design of the Easyboot "Bare" are made for the natural hoof. These boots, along with the up-buckle system and custom padding is a winning combination!

Rising to the challenge, the Bare was used in 2006 by two horse and rider teams to successfully complete the 400KM Shazada endurance event in Australia. In addition, it has successfully completed several 100−mile and 250−mile endurance events in extreme conditions on barefoot horses. Not only did the Bare boots stay in place, they did not rub, twist or turn. The results are even more impressive considering many of the test miles were completed in deep, boot-sucking mud and snow.

Hoof Armor                                    www.hoofarmor.com

This is an exciting new product that I have just started using. Hoof Armor applications allow the horse to go barefoot while providing protection to the sole.

Vettec                                                      www.vettec.com

Any equine professional knows the value of Vettec products. Now they have Sole-Guard, a protective sealant that provides sole protection for the naturally trimmed foot, that lasts for 3-4 weeks. 

Dynamite Products                    http://www.dynamitemarketing.com

Julie and I are distributors for Dynamite products for horses, humans and other animals. We recommend starting out with the basic program.

We can tell you from personal experience just how wonderful this program works. Our geldings have been on this program for over a year. Their hooves and coats are absolutely beautiful! Julie's 1/2 Arabian gelding is calmer and is much easier to work with.

Our mares were pastured off the ranch and were given a 'popular' feed supplement from April until November. There was no comparison in the appearance of the mares vs. the geldings. The mares hooves became brittle and their coats were coarse. For more information on Dynamite, go to their web site:

 Steele Halters

Our good friend Hyle Steele makes these halter/lead combination along with braided rawhide. His stock whips are sold by Clinton Anderson. Hyle helped to design Clinton's shop where the halters are tied.
