“I have tested your socks on four different horses and they went very well. More so than I expected, actually. I would like to order ten of each of your Silver Whinnys ® and,” FEI equine veterinarian Dr. Momoko Ito of Japan told Sox For Horses ® Inc. president Raymond Petterson, “I would like to become your dealer.”

Sox for horses going international

Dr. Ito, who is originally from Detroit, Michigan, is one of only 28 equine veterinarians recognized by the Federation Equestre Internationale (FEI) to represent Japan. She has been featured for her work with Japan's sport horses on Nagoya TV and is chief executive officer at Equicure, Co., Ltd. of Toyota, Aichi, which offers equine medical and dental services.

“Also, is it possible to order larger sizes? I have a client that has a chronic infection on the hind leg and since it is swollen, I will need larger size socks. And for hocks, too,” she said to Petterson, founder and creator of Sox For Horses ® Inc., after seeing a demo model pairing SFH Silver Whinnys ® with the Hock Shield ® by Click Horse Products, at the Florida Association of Equine Practitioners (FAEP) convention in Ocala, Florida.

It's only been a month since these two great names in equine leg protection – Sox For Horses ® Inc., makers of Silver Whinnys ® and Whinny Warmers ® pull-up equine leg wear and Click Horse Products Inc., makers of the Hock Shield ™ -- teamed up to give veterinarians and horse owners a safe combined option in caring for hock sores and other leg and joint injuries and it's already rewarded both American companies with Pan-Asian interest.
