Hey April - good job with the photos!  My horses all do better with
four boots.  It does help balance them out, so their breakover is
similar on all 4.  

If you are going to compete this year with boots (either two or four) you
should enter the
EasyCare
 $10,000
Hoof Boot Contest.  In addition to being able to win $$ there
are lots of other specials and promotions.  Discounts on boots,
drawings for things like ride entries and all sorts of other fun
stuff.  We have 45 riders signed up as of today.  

Here is info on the
2006
winners in case anybody is interested in seeing who did what with a
horse using boots over bare hooves this past ride season.

p.s. I have faith in you April, that you'll be able to cut your
installation time in half even with vetwrapping four hooves.
