Fantastic, thank you so much for your ideas, I'm going to try the boot laces first, only coz I know where some are and I'll have to search for the cable ties lol. I just knew someone on our wonderful site would have a solution, we are all such ingenious souls, especially when it comes to spending money unnecessarily. :-) |

I've used nylon spur straps with success too. When I needed to put two sausage rings together (large horse!) I used large/wide cable ties. Need cutting each time you want to take it off, but strong and cheap and straps get mucky anyway. You can 'bury' the joined bit inside the rubber by shifting it round. Anne |

Hi there, I use sausage boot or fetlock rings on my gypsy cob and they are brilliant BUT the leather straps snap and I can't find any replacement straps. The rings are still immaculate . HELP any ideas anyone? Jenny |
