“I’ve been wanting to thank you guys for everything you do and work for! I’ve said it before that Cavallo has saved Flo from having to stick to a sandy arena for the rest of her life when she’d rather be out in the hills! Horseshoes aren’t an option, as they break her hooves off in chunks (I would much prefer her barefoot, anyways). This year, her boots are going to make it possible for her to travel, to hit some trails in other states and see more of the world. This year we’ll go to the salt flats in Utah, and her boots are not only going to protect her feet from getting caked with salt, but also help her be comfortable enough for us to do one last gallop together before retirement. She would have never seen these wonders of Mother Nature that she so loves if it weren’t for Cavallo. We are forever grateful!

She’s done many wilderness gallop races with friends, and a lot of rock climbing. She’s done lots of drive-thru riding to get snacks, too, all thanks to her boots! This trip is going to wrap up a huge part of our adventures. We’re still going to hit the trails, but her legs are aging and she won’t be able to do gallop races or 15-mile rides in a couple of years. She got her first Cavallos when she was 8, and she will be 13 soon. These 5 years of exploring have made both of us so happy, and we could never thank you enough.”

From Britney Brandt of Indiana: “I’m not normally a product endorser, but these are too good not to share! My daughter has a show horse. However, I refuse to have a horse stand in a stall and only come out for his job. Any horse I own will get turnout time. This has never been an issue until her current horse. JD is young, and when he’s turned out, he runs and plays with reckless abandon… Literally, every time he’s gotten out in the big field, he’s pulled a shoe. We’ve done bell boots, bell boots with duct tape, tried the reiner tape trick, we tried everything with no success. We tried another brand of hoof boot, but they just didn’t fit.- they spun and flopped.

Then I came across the Cavallo Hoof Boots. They’re recommended for horses with shoes (they even offer an additional protective pad to protect the boot sole from shoe nails). The staff communication was amazing when I reached out about fitting. I wasn’t comfortable picking the size, so I sent pictures of JD’s feet, and they selected the correct size for me.

We tried them for the first time yesterday, and WE LOVE THEM!!!! They fit perfectly, and though covered in mud, they rinsed right off and looked like new. AND HE KEPT BOTH SHOES ON!!! I would 100% recommend these boots. They have several varieties to address different needs. Reach out and they will answer any questions you have!”

“Here’s a picture of us participating in our local ‘Go Texan Parade’ from this year. The two horses wearing the Cavallos are both my gelding and mare.

Both will be participating in the Pony Express 2025. I currently own a pair of Cavallos for Sonny, but I wanted him to be in new ones for this relay race, as we travel along roads and through towns. Sonny has those “white hooves” and is a little more sensitive to road conditions. He is 26, and my mare is 19; she is also a Houston SPCA rescue!

Thank you for producing such an excellent product. I have used Cavallo Boots since they came out! Sonny has been a Mounted Patrol Horse.

“I have an Andalusian Mustang cross 20-year-old mare that is on her 8th round of Winter metabolic Laminitis. I’ve tried several other brands of boots, and none of them have stood up to being worn for weeks on end like Cavallo Boots.

I’ve had them for a couple of years now, and between stall rest and wearing the boots 24/7, Daisy is getting through this flare-up quicker and with much less pain than ever before. Plus, they are preventing snow build-up in her hooves.”

“My Cavallo Boots have been essential to me this Winter. Tumult had a hoof ulcer that gave him an infection in the skin in the muddiest part of the early Winter, so I was really happy that I could use my BFB (draft-size) boots as an extra shield.

Can’t wait to go for long rides on him in the forest. ❤️ I need Cavallos on him since we just had a refill of rocks on the old forest road, and they put down some really big and sharp stones. I might go out for a hack this weekend!” ⭐️

“The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office Mounted Unit proudly participated in the 75th Harris County Sheriff’s Office Pony Express. The Pony Express Ride is a prestigious tradition where horses and riders, mainly from Houston-area law enforcement mounted patrol agencies, travel along U.S. Highway 290 from Waller County Fairgrounds to the State Capital in a relay fashion. Once they reach the Capitol in Austin, riders pass on letters of invitation to elected officials on the steps of the Capitol, marking the beginning of the 92nd Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.

My partner, Anson Drake & I loped one mile at a time as a team in this relay-style race. Both of our horses are barefoot and were wearing Cavallo Boots the whole race!”

“If I hadn’t borrowed a pair of Cavallo Boots from a friend, I wouldn’t have been able to use my most reliable pony for our cattle drives.

When my pony came up lame from a hoof abscess after returning from a mountain trip, I was sure I was going to have to pull my 25-year-old out of retirement. Instead, a friend offered to lend me a pair of boots to try. I was all prepared to try them and change horses after the first cattle drive. But to my surprise, I was able to do all four drives on my sound pony. This promptly encouraged me to order my own Cavallos. I also think they will be great for my mountain trips as her soles will be protected as well.”

“I purchased four Cavallo boots recently. My horse is in rehab for SI ligament strain, and we must ride on hard surface, which unfortunately has a lot of gravel. This surface was really wearing down his hoofs, to the point that my farrier was talking about putting shoes on.

To avoid this, I thought…boots! Well, this Friesian-cross has big hooves, not something other companies carry and his back ones are odd-sized. I really appreciated the assistance from Cavallo to get the correct size, he is a 6 Regular in front and Slim on back. I love the quality of these boots, and he seems very comfortable walking and trotting in them.”

“Genuinely amazed. My horse has continued to deal with issues in the hoof (very long story), and had to have a huge portion of his hoof removed now. It is because of his Cavallo Hoof Boots that he can walk and stand right now (hell, he’s even feeling good enough in them to trot with the herd and canter!).

They are genuinely giving him a chance at rehabbing the worst case of abscesses in a hoof I’ve ever seen. When those boots are back on, he gets to be a horse, and you can see how relaxed he is! Also! The ease of packing and wrapping a damaged hoof when it can be protected in a Cavallo boot?? I can’t believe I ever wrapped without these boots!”

“My daughter Corie Jo is a barefoot trimmer. We recommend your boots to her clients who want to go barefoot. We were sold on your boots!

They literally aided in the rehabilitation of our rescued purebred Friesian mare, who was only 10 at the time. She had a quasi-club foot. With X-rays, we were able to remove just over 4 inches of hoof. Your boots were a Godsend. She also came with severe White Line Disease, severe thrush (her frogs weren’t able to function for most of her adult life under previous ownership) and massive ‘crusty granulations’ under her fetlocks that were due to mites. She was basically used as a broodmare, although we are now riding her. Your boots saved her as she was going through the transformation.”

“Isn’t Daisy gorgeous!!! She is so happy and relieved now that she has her new Cavallo CLB (Cute Little Boots)!

All of you are so amazing.. It’s so refreshing to do business with a team that you can tell actually cares!! We are forever grateful.”

“Won my hunter pace today in my new Sport Boots! My mare galloped through the mud and went through a river, and she jumped; they always stay on! Best boots made!

I’m so very happy for my mare! She’s amazing. I’ve had her since she was 4. Her name is Mama. She’s a registered solid Paint and registered solid Pinto, and she is 27 years old. I’m 67 and have used the Cavallos for years. She’s won many hunter paces with her Cavallos on, and we have never lost one! Love them!”

“My zebra Zavannah loves her CLB Boots. With Laminitis, she could barely walk, and I would have to pull her into each step. Now she pulls me! Maybe I should get a pair for me, too!”

And if anyone wants to know how the Cavallo Boots are in mud, just ask Zavannah. She has the run of the whole ranch again now that she has her farrier, Bradley James Kelly and the Cavallo boots.”

“We travel a lot of miles, and the trailering is the hardest part on the horse. I was looking for a boot to help absorb some of the shock of the trailer ride.

I wanted a boot with a flat surface that wouldn’t change the angle of the foot. I wanted the foot to remain in the angles of the shoeing. For me, it’s more about shock absorption than it is for any traction. I also like having them on so when we stop to walk, I know they have protection from any rocks or rough surfaces. These are the easiest boots ever. They are quick to put on and last great. Mine have been on for hundreds of thousands of miles with no issues. When we arrive, I think my horses move better. Not as stoved up as they would be without boots.“

“Tommy, my Paint, is 24 years young and loves going places to ride. We left him at home for a year before we found these boots. He is so glad to be out riding again!

Tommy has VERY tender soles. He wears metal horseshoes, but I put Treks (with pads to protect the Treks from the metal shoes), on him to ride trails. They have been great! They stay on, and he never gets poked or becomes lame now. Thank you for a great product!”

California Showjumper Zoey Luna uses Cavallo Trek Hoof Boots to give her horses shock absorption and added comfort while jumping. The boots absorb shock, protecting her horses joints from the hoof up. Zoey uses her Cavallo Hoof Boots for XC, Show Jumping, Therapy/Hoof Rehab, and more!

Many of her horses are rescued OTTB (ex-racehorses), and she believes they deserve the very best! So do we!
