Happy Thanksgiving from Soft Ride
|
|
This time of year we always like to take a moment to reflect on all the things we’re thankful for - from our amazing clients and clinics, to all the horses that are moving more comfortably in their Soft Ride Boots and Shoes. We want to take a moment to thank you for making Soft Ride a part of your daily lives. Whether that means putting on a pair of boots to trailer to a Thanksgiving Day ride, icing your horses after a long workout, or rehabilitating someone who hasn’t had the greatest year - we are so glad Soft Ride products have been able to help your horses feel their best. We’re a small family business, so we know how important a healthy, happy time with family is. This year we want to open up a little return Thanksgiving for people who’ve shared their Soft Ride stories with us. Read on to learn how to enter this year’s giveaway.

"Everyone told me to put him down, but I refused to give up on him. Your boots literally saved his life, and I am forever grateful."

I have a sweet half Arabian/paint. He foundered a few years ago. And unfortunately, he continues to founder. This last time, my vet recommended Soft Ride Boots. I immediately looked them up, and was intrigued. But unfortunately, I couldn't just buy them. I started saving for them that day.
I talked to my farrier about the boots and he was skeptical to say the least. But he wanted to know the outcome.
Finally I was able to order the boots. My farrier came out to help me get them on him without too much stress. Once the boots were on, the difference was instant.
My beautiful boy went from barely walking, having to shift his weight constantly because of pain, to walking out like nothing bothered him. No limp. No throwing his head. No hesitation. My farrier just stood there with his jaw dropped. The next day was better, as he'd gotten used to the boots. Today is day 4, and he's his old self.
You don't know what these boots have done for us. I cried every day because I was doing everything I could for him, (pain killers, anti-inflammatory, being trimmed every 6 weeks, special feed) and he was still in pain. Everyone told me to put him down, but I refused to give up on him. Your boots literally saved his life, and I am forever grateful.
My farrier took your insert from the box. He was so impressed, he's going to recommend your boots to his clients. Not just for laminitis, but for traveling. I called my vet and told her the good news, and posted about your boots all over my social media. Every horse owner needs to know about your boots, and I'm going to do my best to get the word out to everyone I know.
Thank you for saving my boy. My horses are rescues and I've made it my mission to give them the best life I can. You helped me do that.
Thank you isn't enough, but it's all I can offer.
