EQUINE | DEFENDER™ • Barn Resource
Horse taping guidance that actually looks like a horse.
The replacement uses realistic equine photography and clear visual placement references for shoulder, topline, hindquarter, and lower-limb applications.
Open the full-size guide to print it or save it to your phone.
Clean and completely dry.Dirt, sweat, loose hair, oils, sprays, and coat products interfere with adhesion. Do not place liniment or other topicals underneath tape.
Keep tension controlled.Use zero-stretch anchors and light working tension. Tape should provide a cue—not compression, restraint, or a circumferential wrap.
Check the horse often.Remove tape if it rolls, binds, traps moisture, irritates the skin, changes movement, or causes the horse to object.
Use the photo examples as placement references—not diagnoses or clinical prescriptions. Do not tape open wounds, infected or irritated skin, unexplained heat or swelling, suspected fractures, or an acutely lame or painful horse. Contact your veterinarian when the underlying concern is unclear or worsening.
