More From our customers ...
Dear Soft-ride:
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you for your product!!!
Last year, one of my beautiful horses experienced severe laminitis. One of the vets that looked at her thought we should give it a month – if things did not improve, then have her put down.
I can never thank you enough for your incredible customer service. You treated us like you were the owner of the horse. There was as much quality in your customer service as there is in your product.
I firmly believe Soft-ride was a huge part of my horses’ recovery. Today she roams all over. This summer, she trotted and cantored for the first time in over a year.
From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you!!

Hi , this is Debbie from Calif.
Kacy is very very happy with her new feet. They do fit snug, there is no rubbing on the bulbs at all. I wish I had a video of her walking to my tie rack from the corral with out the boots, to the transition of her walking after about 10 minutes with the boots. It would have made the best advertisement.
Also, and you know I want to see all good stuff, but, I am thinking I am seeing her walking and trotting not so stabbing with her hind legs.
A very thankful owner;
Deb
WOW, These new boots are great! The minute I put them on Chantilly she nickered and stepped right out. She hasn't done that for a long time. Now she is trying to sneak out to the pasture, and she hasn't walked that far on her own in months. The new beveled sole is the greatest. Thanks for helping my girl!

Soft-Ride Equine Comfort Boots Help in the Treatment of Laminitis
Bubba is a Percheron/pony cross who, six weeks before this photo was
taken, was lying down, plagued by bedsores — unable to walk due to
chronic laminitis. Wearing Soft-Ride Equine Comfort Boots, he can now
walk a few steps to the beach, where standing and swimming in the cold
salt water are helping to speed his recovery.

Cometa is a 15-year-old Paso Fino mare. She is insulin resistant and this isher second bout with laminitis in the last three years. Your boots have been wonderful. The first time she wore them outside she had a good roll in the dirt. Each day she was more active. She kicks up her heels and throws in a buck or two for good measure.
One evening when my husband went out to feed her she was missing a boot. He spent some time looking for it and finally found it ten feet on the other side of the fence! My guess is it sailed over the fence as the result of a very exuberant "I feel so good" buck. She's back in shoes now with frog support and pads. We'll be back on the trails soon. We all want to thank you
and Soft-Ride boots.

Avatara is a 12-year-old Lipizzan mare. You can see the damage to her feet from laminitis. Even though her hoof walls are mostly missing and she's simply walking on her soles, your boots protect her healing feet. Your nice soft inserts make her so comfortable she's actually trying to walk out of her stall at Virginia Tech's veterinary hospital every time I open the door!
You all make a terrific product—thanks!

Sammy, my 19 year-old Cushing/Insulin Resistant Arabian mare, severely foundered in December and was unable to walk out of her stall without protection on her "soles". Thankfully, Dr. Mike Van Noy of Auburn Laboratories highly recommended your boots due to their thick, "gel-like" insole. Sammy had instant relief when I put the boots on her for the first time. Now when I approach her with the boots, she eagerly stands with her foot up waiting for me to put them on her feet. On a good day, she trots with them on. My vet and farrier were so impressed with the results that they are recommending your boots to other clients. Thanks for a great product!
