RE: [RC] [RC] Advice on interference boots - Ranelle Rubin

Cynthia,

One thing I forgot to mention about this when we spoke earlier today that you might want to consider, is lining the inside with Desitin and then a coating of baby powder...It has to be reapplied at each vet check, and is rather messy, but works.

Kosmos occasionally interferes in the front, banging the front legs on one
another midway down on the inside of the cannon bones. I have used
neoprene boots, but they rubbed him raw in small areas on the inside of
his pasterns at the Patriot 100 last month.  Didn't use them at Cooley and
he interfered and we were pulled for lameness.  The boots appear to fit
well, but rub.  Do you think it's an allergy to neoprene?  Heat? Salty
sweat?  The combo?
Anyone have experience trimming the neoprene? Any other ideas and/or
products?
