??Hind leg support?
i already asked this question but i think i worded it wrong.
you need boots on the front legs for support of the tendons. what almost the hind legs don't they need support too?
btw ankle boots don't provide support, they prevent trauma, such as one leg hitting the other.
They do make hind splint boots and such for the subsidise tendons.
Most people who use front support are jumpers, and all the trauma is on the front legs from landing.
If you want to do up adjectives the legs, i recommend polos over boots anyway.
Horses carry more of their bulk on their front end, I think that's why people tend to support the front legs more. Plus profusely of the events that require support (such as jumping) puts more stress on the front legs anyway.
Hind legs do need support when doing strenuous activities. They do craft hind leg support boots. I have some SMB hind support boots I use but not all the time.
WRAP THEM. YOUR HORSE SHOULD NOT BE CANTERING. ONLY WALK AND TROT IF IT HAS HIND LEG PROBLEMS. or buy some nice hind leg horse boots with cushining gel.
best luck to adjectives, lo
Usually they say that if you boot the front, you should boot the rear so the horse can maintain its natural balance...whether you only support the front, the back will have a different height of support and so the balance will be off...
Answers: A lot of dressage horses are wrapped on the hind legs, since there is quite a bit of stress to the tendons from the lofty levels of collected work they perform. In most other sports, you see boots for trauma protection, but not so much support bandaging.
