> >>> People put "protective" boots on Icelandics when they are running down a straight track, lest the horse cut his leg off, and all the yelling and screaming about *protecting* the horse when the weight of "protective" boots is challenged. So... why would the same people take the chance of lameness issues by riding on ice? It just doesn't make sense <<
>> Boy, Judy, that IS an inconsistency. Logic, just apply logic to the situation. Think about things instead of blindly believing. Get educated about all things related to horses. Be able to make informed, educated decisions. We hope, by this list / forum, to be giving everyone the tools to make informed decisions for their own horses, in different situations. (Who is going to take a chance and buy any of the horses used in an icetolt?) Judy
