Travel boots are essential for protecting your horse’s legs from knocks and scrapes whilst travelling.
The new Bucas 2020 Boots are made of tough outer nylon fabric and a stay-dry inner lining.
Made with cushioned padding the boots will fully contour to the horse’s legs. Features for a secure fit include three large straps on the front boots, four large straps on the rear boots and elasticated top and bottom straps.
The unique front boots close differently to normal traditional travel boots. The straps fasten forward which means the boots close across the tendons, leaving the back of the knee open for ease of movement, whilst still covering the front of the knee to prevent injury.
The stay-dry lining helps to dry wet legs faster so that by the time you finish your journey home and remove the travel boots your horse’s legs will be dry and comfortable!
The boots are available in Full and Cob in the colours black or navy.
RRP for the 2020 Travel Boots is £125.

When Annette McCracken walked to her horse’s stable door and found her laid flat out she thought the time had come for the 21-year-old cob.
Now retired, Sally has been a major part of Annette’s life since she was four and the pair has spent endless hours together hacking and enjoying cross-country rides.
Said Annette: “I have had so much fun on Sally and she is a massive part of my life so when I went to the stable and found her lying on her side it was very distressing.
“She has had laminitis on and off for a number of years but it has never been as severe as the latest bout.
“I have always turned her out with my show jumpers and event horses but in February this year the attack happened while she had actually been stabled for a few days with the cold, wet weather.
“It just came out of nowhere but may have resulted from too much haylage and standing in.
“When I went to the stables I just could not get her to move. I went back several times and then I started to get really worried and felt I needed to call the vets.

Connemara pony Shannon was proving a superb schoolmistress for young Maisy Griffiths in the dressage arena until she suffered from a bout of laminitis.

Now 15-years-old, Welsh Section A pony, Ed first experienced laminitis at the age of five and his devoted owner Sam Bull has done everything in her power ever since to keep him happy and comfortable.
Sam first came across Ed when a friend bought a host of foals from the sales and she was asked if she could keep an eye on them.
Said Sam: “Ed was in a stable with two other ponies who bullied him so much he literally jumped into his haynet and got stuck.
“Fortunately I was there and able to cut him down and when he was free he came running over to me and put his head in my arms.
“With that I just had to have him and bought him aged five-and-a-half months just weaned.”
Sam originally purchased him with the plan of finding him a nice home but she quickly became attached and he has been with her ever since as a companion to her horses.

• 
•  

Standing just 11.3hh, Sam has always kept a close watch on Ed’s weight and never expected him to get laminitis.
Adds Sam: “I first noticed Ed was standing with the typical laminitis stance but initially if I kept him in for two days it would go. He wasn’t overweight or anything and it soon went away.
“Ed could be fine one minute and half an hour later he was terrible. I decided to keep a diary and asked the vets to carry out a blood test which showed his insulin was very high and he was diagnosed with Equine Metabolic Syndrome (EMS).
“For the last five summers he has been really well and it is only the last two winters where the problem flared up again and his hooves became really sensitive.”
