The Boett has been literally life changing for Tai, who used to suffer extremely badly with sweet itch. He also has the hood on, and wears the Boett at all times (when not ridden).
Previous years have been extremely distressing for the horse and all those who care for him - watching a horse draw blood out of pain is not nice! But since having the Boett, Tai's mane and tail have grown back, and his sweet itch is no longer a problem.
The hood takes some getting used to, as you have to pull it on over the horse's head - and it's very expensive - but it really is worth the money.
