Out of the blue, my mare became lame on her right fore. I want to rule out grass and see if boots would make her more comfortable.

With her Renegades on, she seemed somewhat better but not fully ok.
I'm looking for boots into which I could pads to help some more and see if it makes a difference. She is very snug in Size 1 Renegades.

What boot type and size would you suggest ?

Thanks a lot for advice !

I know a lot of people don't like them Tally, but I have found the Easy Bares with the 12mm comfort pads indispensible for pony and my big lump over the last year. There seems to be a new screw-adjustable model out - haven't heard anyone commenting on them yet.

Anni managed to get the Easy comfort pads pads to stick in her renegades - (glue-gun!) maybe that's an option? Maybe a quick fix would be a bit of camping mat material (maybe double thickness?) and just rely on the weight to keep it in place?
