My trainer suggested that I start putting polo wraps on my pony. I’ve been doing just that for about two weeks now and I really feel like the added support makes a difference. I don’t believe that she interferes with her legs unless she is giving me some pony 'tude about doing dressage.
I mostly ride dressage, but do a little bit of everything. Lately, I’ve been on the trail riding kick. I would like to keep the support of polo wraps (at least on her front legs) when we go out, but I feel that they are likely to come off if we go through thick brush on uncut trails or be annoying when we go through water.
If I’m correct about that, my next question would be, what kind of boots should I shop for? I started looking around last night, but got lost in the plethora of boots. She’s a large pony, 14.1hh, but I do not think small horse sized boots would fit her unless they run small.
