Martin vs. The Big Blue Boot....

Today, Martin won. Although it may appear that I actually had both boots on and a dual soaking was imminent.......


...in just a flash of a camera, martin performed a vanishing act....he wanted no part of this activity today.....note his halter still hanging between the cross ties and both boots strewn about....


I had just enough solution left to combine both boots into one and resume soaking...one at a time and in his stall where he could move less....

He was too spooked at this point though...he would not even stand for a single foot soak today, so I had to resort to pour what little liquid I had left into some plastic grocery bags and taping them to his feet....as you can see by the expression on his face, he was overjoyed with me...


Better than nothing!



....pretty boy.



Has anyone else out there had an experience using Cleantrax in a soaking boot? How did it go for you? I am contemplating a light sedative for him next weekend.....bwahahahahahha
Happy Hooves!

OMG, love the picture of the halter just hanging there! That escape must have been something to see. Hope you have better luck next time.
