What Our Customers Are Saying About The Scootboot TheraRide
The Scootboot TheraRide combines therapeutic support with the rideability of the Scootboot Classic, providing additional support for horses during rehabilitation, transition and riding.
With a recessed sole, customised interchangeable pads and a shock-absorbing honeycomb TPU pad, the TheraRide can be adapted to suit individual hoof needs.
From thin soles and hoof sensitivity to laminitis, arthritis and rehabilitation, here’s what TheraRide customers around the world have to say.
Supporting thin soles during rehabilitation
Asta, Lithuania
“My horse was dealing with mechanical rotation, a very thin sole, and post-abscess sensitivity. Hard ground was difficult for him, and he needed extra support during rehab. The TheraRide boots made an immediate difference — he moved more comfortably, showed less sole tenderness, and was noticeably more willing to walk on firmer surfaces. I'd recommend TheraRides to other riders, especially for horses with thin soles, laminitic history, or those transitioning barefoot. They’ve been a valuable tool for my horse.”
Extra support for sensitive feet
Jennifer, United States
“The sizing process was very helpful and the boots fit perfectly. My horse took to them right away. I love that they came with replacement parts and everything I needed to get started. My horse is metabolic and she has always had such tender feet. Shoeing her was not helping and she showed a lot of improvement with a barefoot trim but needed something a bit more for our rides. I am so happy with these. I also ride where there are a lot of foxtails and other weeds and love how they cannot stick to these boots.”
Comfort across different terrain
Alix, Belgium
“My horse is so comfortable in them! He walks comfortably on any surface now. As it has been rainy the past weeks also, we have also tried them in the mud, and he does not slip too much in them either. The gaiter was really a game-changer for my Thoroughbred since he has very thin skin and was prone to irritation - he wears the TheraRide up to 10 hours a day. Now he walks and runs on any terrain, and in the meantime we can continue taking care of his rather complicated hooves so he gains even more comfort.”
More support over gravel and rocks
Amber, Canada
“My Thoroughbred has pretty good feet for her breed, however her soles are still quite thin and she struggled with walking across gravel or rocks. After putting the TheraRides on, she walked more comfortably and was able to lengthen her stride. I’ve ridden with them on with no problem and love that I know her feet are better supported. These aren’t just for horses with hooves in need of rehab, they are also great for ones that need a little extra support. I’d recommend them to other riders, the extra support makes a huge difference.”
Helping a laminitic horse return to turnout
Dianne, Australia
“I bought 2 sets of TheraRide boots for a laminitic horse as he transitioned from stable confinement to daytime small paddock care. I find them great, he is out, walking well and happy and comfortable, which we would not be able to do without them. I love the efficient service and super fast delivery.”
Supporting recovery after injury and an abscess
Aurore, Switzerland
“Yes the TheraRide helped my horse. He has a splint bone that made him lame for 3 months. Since he can go out again, he’s walking with the TheraRide. He also had a huge abscess, and with the TheraRide he gained a lot of comfort. His feet evolved since he’s walking with the TheraRide. I’ll recommend them to anyone who wants to improve the functionality of the feet.”
Staying on in wet and muddy conditions
Tara, United States
“I would recommend these to others. I live in Washington State in the US, where we get 15+ feet of rain in the winter. My gelding lives out 27/7. We get lots of mud. They stay on well and drain out excess water. I will say, some mud does stick into the honeycomb pad holes. They are the only feasible boots for us though and we are so grateful. We love them!”
Supporting horses with arthritis and thin soles
Venla, Finland
“They have helped my Icelandic horse with mild arthritis and thin soles. We had some issues first with the boot fitting but you helped to figure that out and now I have been very pleased with them. I have recommended them to others and I would buy more when they wear out. They are quite heavy weight but I haven’t seen it to bother my horse, after all we do 95% of our rides in walk anymore due to his condition. But I think my horse is able to still enjoy our little walks in the city with these boots on.”
Helping horses return to work
Ashley, United States
“They have helped tremendously. We are finally able to get him back into light work, and help him be more comfortable overall.”
