About me

Hi, I'm Bailey,

A little over a year ago, I brought home a thoroughbred, and right away we had our work cut out for us. He had a real fear of the farrier and anything involving shoes, so I was committed to transitioning him to barefoot. What followed was a deep dive into nutrition, hoof health, and soundness — a lot of reading, a lot of patience, and honestly, a lot of worrying whether I was doing right by him.

Keeping him comfortable through the transition meant finding the right hoof boots, and that turned into its own journey. I tried boot after boot. Some rubbed and left him with sores. Others came off mid-ride or mid-turnout. I was frustrated, he was uncomfortable, and I was running out of options.

Then I tried Scoot Boots. They didn't rub. They stayed on. I could actually ride in them without babysitting every step. For the first time in months, I felt like we had something that worked.

But getting there wasn't easy. When I ordered my first pair, I had no one to walk me through sizing or fitting. I went through returns, exchanges, and a lot of back-and-forth — all while feeling the pressure to get my horse sound and comfortable as quickly as possible. It was stressful, and it took far longer than it needed to.

That's why I became a Scoot Boot stockist. I believe in these boots because they genuinely changed things for my horse — and I want to be the person I didn't have when I was figuring it all out. Whether you're new to barefoot, mid-transition, or just trying to find a boot that actually fits, I'm here to help you size, fit, and troubleshoot so you can skip the guesswork and get your horse moving comfortably.

I can't wait to help you and your horse find your stride.
