Can you sneak in and turn that heater off? ( ha ha, kidding... sort of) Bring on those boots! What about a MaxiPad? Sam uses them all the time for injuries and extra padding for wraps... ?tmdunphyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07418108787916270620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4336485400243362481.post-83457220584333343032011-02-04T22:36:32.019-08:002011-02-04T22:36:32.019-08:00I tried the styrofoam and duct tape already, or ra...I tried the styrofoam and duct tape already, or rather it was that material you use for yoga mattresses. Didn't work at all, in fact, made matters worse. I don't know if it was the fact that Little Love just felt it was weird to have something taped to her feet? Didn't think of diapers, haha, that is a good one. <br />And yes, the barn has heating AND Col has a very thick blanket on while inside. I was able to get Becky to abandon the neck piece from the blanket, but still, the poor guy is roasting in there. I mean, Lilo is roasting and she has no blanket. The temperature differences between the barn and outside are just too great and mess with the horse's own heating system. I'm working on that aspect. She means well, in fact, she means TOO well, that's the problem.Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00250005101735182059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4336485400243362481.post-10356079223943421942011-02-04T16:52:32.724-08:002011-02-04T16:52:32.724-08:00heated barn?!?!heated barn?!?!Junehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13428008814751524182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4336485400243362481.post-7775530369117143802011-02-04T16:51:25.553-08:002011-02-04T16:51:25.553-08:00or styrofoam and duct tapeor styrofoam and duct tapeJunehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13428008814751524182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4336485400243362481.post-12448512084305363672011-02-04T13:09:43.161-08:002011-02-04T13:09:43.161-08:00Geez, in another week she might not need the boots...Geez, in another week she might not need the boots (fingers crossed). In any case I'm glad they threw in the pads for free- you'll want to put those in the boots as soon as you get them.<br /><br />I thought of an idea in the meantime, diapers. They have a lot of padding and you could tape them up around her fetlocks to keep them on. It's kind of crazy but it just might work...smazourekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03029180368325070266noreply@blogger.com
