The hock boots on the market wouldn’t stay put, so she invented one. A veterinarian specializing in Equine Locomotor Pathology inspected and tested the final design and determined that it was safe and effective. The USPO agreed that the Hock Shield was indeed a unique design and ap- proved the patent. In 2010 Click Horse Products, Inc., and their website, www.hockshield.com , were launched. Click Horse Products man- ufactures and sells hock, fetlock and knee shields to protect horses from bedsores and abrasions. They cover the hock or other joint comfortably and stay in place so horses with bleeding or swollen areas could heal. The patented design of Click’s hock and knee shields is unique and superior in their abil- ity to stay in place. All products are comfortable for the horse and easy to put on. The Hock Shield features a tear-resistant neoprene outer shell and soft fleece lining. The open front version comes in two adjustable sizes and features a soft, flexible 'pocket' in the cen- ter back to provide comfort in the delicate area where tendons pass just under the skin. The Hock Shield Ultra (full-wrap) comes in two sizes and can also be used for horses with injuries in the front of their hock joint or with arthritic hocks to prevent chill. All are machine washable and dryable. The Fetlock Shield is a lighter, taller and – most impor- tantly – non-chafing answer to upside-down bell boots. Fetlock Shields are soft, flexible, com- fortable yet sturdy bed sore boots that will never leave the area between the hoof and the fetlock joint exposed. Click Horse Products are shipped worldwide.
