Soft Ride is Thankful for our Customers
|

For all our American customers, we hope you had an absolutely wonderful Thanksgiving yesterday surrounded by family and friends, both two legged and four legged. With the holidays approaching we know there can be lots of pressure to constantly be online, shopping and browsing, making sure we don’t miss knocking a few cents off products to help with the holiday pressure.
We know how frustrating it can be to miss a sale, product drop, or inventory restock when you just want to be outside with your horses. This is why we don’t run any promotions or sales around Black Friday or Cyber Monday. As a company we've decided not to run sales because we don't feel comfortable with the psychology behind promotions for medically necessary products. Instead, our prices are the same 365 days a year. No pressure to buy now. Get the products you need, when you need them, for the horse that needs them.
As is our tradition, we are closed for the long Thanksgiving holiday weekend so our employees can spend the time with their families. We will reopen on Monday, December 2, for our regularly scheduled customer service hours and shipping hours.
Finally and most importantly, we want to take a moment to thank you for being here. We're a tiny, family run company and being able to do what we do as a job is a dream come true. None of that would be possible without your support, so from the bottom of our hearts, thank you!

My retirement present to myself was getting back to horse ownership. My 27 year old Arabian-Pinto cross mare has been a wonderful horse, and we are deeply bonded. On days we don’t ride we do liberty work to keep her moving and in condition. Lula was diagnosed with advanced Cushings disease, and had a serious bout with laminitis one fall. Medications and icing her feet 2 and 3 times a day helped bring relief from inflammation and pain. Then based on the stable owner’s recommendation I ordered soft ride boots for her. The gel insoles immediately helped her find comfort while on stall rest, she wore them 24 hours a day. Lula stood square on her feet, not rocked back. The rolfer came and helped make her comfortable, and he was impressed with the improvements the boots made in a short time. Once she was cleared by the vet for limited turnout the boots helped her make the transition to being in a dirt paddock rather than a stall with deep bedding. She wore them non-stop during recovery.
The other boarders in the barn saw the relief the soft ride boots gave Lula, and how she was able to return to trail rides in comfort. Others have now ordered Soft Ride for their horses based on the terrific results Lula had with them, some for hoof soreness, others for trailering out to shows. Thank you for developing these life saving boots; Lula and I look forward to many more years of pain-free time together! Thank you isn't enough, but it's all I can offer.
