Location: Oklahoma		I have a horse that is accident prone.  He likes to hurt himself I think.  He was off for 2 months for a pulled ligament on the back left, and 2 days after I started back riding him he cut his back right on the front of the ankle. 

He is now not sore on either, but the wound is still there and healing.  I have been exercising without wrapping either.  I am needing suggesting on how to wrap and do more extensive work to see how he holds up.  I can do a polo easily, but I an wanting to put my Iconoclast boots on him for the more extensive work, to make sure to support the left ankle.  I am thinking I can do a gauze pad and prewrap (stuff that goes under tape for humans) and be OK.  I thought of vet wrap first but I am afraid that will roll and rub and I don't think he will appreciate a boot on one foot and a polo on the other.  I had also though of a thin polo under the Iconoclast, but the boot fits too snug for that set up.

Does anyone have any other suggestions or examples?

(I am coming to realize I never have easy questions!)

Location: Northeast SD		I wouldn't do prewrap under neath.. if there is any space in your boot that is not snug it is going to roll and that stuff can cause blisters just like vet wrap can.. I would just put my iconoclast boots on all feet. Maybe try the rehab one for supporting the ankle better on the left hind?? Not sure the amount of work that you are doing with him so that may not be an option. Otherwise I think soft polos that you make sure will not roll with be just fine for exercise
