Over the past 20 years, I have purchased 3 gooseneck trailers. Today I own only one. The other two have been stolen.
In the past when I looked at locks for gooseneck trailers, I was unable to find one that would lock the trailer to my satisfaction. There are coupler locks out there, but that's just what they are. Coupler locks. They will lock the coupler, but if someone wants to steal the trailer, all they have to do is take the coupler out of the receiving tube and put their own coupler in its place. Then the trailer is ready for them to take.

I designed the GanderLock with this in mind. The GanderLock is designed to plug the receiving tube and make it so that the receiving tube won't accept a coupler.

The biggest objection to the GanderLock has been that People aren't going to want to remove the coupler to put the lock in place. I have been using this design since January 2008, and have found that it takes less than 5 minutes to drop the coupler out and install the lock. And about that much time to take the lock out and put the coupler in place when I use the trailer.
The GanderLock is made with the finest and most durable materials available. I think you will be pleased with the results when you use it.

Being heavily involved in the field of Natural Hoof Care for many years and competing in endurance events with barefooted horses, I became increasingly frustrated with available hoof boot designs for their difficulty of use and their blatant disrespect for the biomechanical needs of the equine hoof capsule and lower leg.

It became obvious to me that something better was needed not only for the casual trail horse, but most definitely for the barefooted, competition endurance horse.

Possessing a background in industrial design, building construction, metal fabrication and model building, I began my quest to develop the hoof boot of my dreams.

The Renegade ? Hoof Boot Is the result of this quest which lasted over three calendar years and consumed an estimated 20,000 man hours of development time, coupled with simultaneous field testing by over a dozen competition endurance-horse and rider teams covering thousands and thousands of training and competition miles on some of the most rugged terrain in the southwest.

In Fact, The Renegade?Hoof Boot was used by Halim El Mokhtar to win the highly coveted American Endurance Ride Conference, Jim Jones Stallion Award in 2005 with 1,120 competition miles recorded in that year.

As the inventor, the developer and now the manufacturer, I can say with great confidence, the Renegade?Hoof Boot is the most thoroughly developed and most highly tested new hoof boot design ever... and all before going to the open market.

My uncompromising design philosophy of putting the horse first has led to a hoof boot design that highly respects the soft tissue of the hoof capsule and lower leg, does not obstruct the movement of pastern bones, does not accumulate significant quantities of dirt and debris, stays on the hoof well for performance work, and is the easiest to install and remove of any high performance hoof boot on the market to date.

Featuring unique pivoting heel captivator technology, if properly sized, fitted, adjusted and installed, the Renegade Hoof Boot will not rub, not even for distances of 100 miles (Tevis proven) and requires no accessories whatsoever to accomplish this feat.

The Renegade?Hoof Boot has been a long time coming but its arrival represents the unleashing of the inherent performance potential of the barefoot performance horse, providing them with the extra protection they need to achieve unprecedented levels of performance over the toughest of terrain.

I sincerely hope you enjoy the boot as much as I have enjoyed the hard work in bringing it to you.

Kirt Lander, Inventor of The Renegade?Hoof Boot.

Thanks for visiting our online store.

We are the only blacksmith in the United States specializing in hand forged garden tools for home gardeners, nurserymen, landscapers, and farmers.

We've been producing hand-forged implements for over 15 years. Bob is a tool designer, inventor, and frequent writer on various gardening topics and Rita is your contact in the store and online. We are new to the internet, but have years of experience operating the retail store. We started off in California in the late 1980's, and relocated to Oregon in 2004.

We operate out of a two story barn that Bob built out of the lumber from two 100-year old Oregon barns. The store is fantastic — in the summer it's cool and bright, and in the winter you can warm your feet at the pot belly stove.

We offer more than 1000 items at the store, and have at least 20 different patterns of hoes; steel rakes ranging from 6 tines to 24 tines; one to five-tine cultivators; ball weeders; hand plows; rock picking forks, root hooks; cradle forks for overhead pitching; mangel cutters; weed spuds; wood tine rakes; hot bed weeders and hundreds of other unique or rare implements.

We also offer sharpening of non-power pruning and other edged tools, re-handling, restoration, repair and custom tool making.

One of the products Scratch n All sells is Made in America Animal Scratchers. A more complete list of their products is provided by Made in America Secrets, to review their list click here.

For more information about Scratch n All and its American Made products see the following:

Cynthia, the inventor of Scratch n All?, has enjoyed the company of animals her entire life. As part of her awareness of needs and behaviors common to all animals, she knows nearly all engage in self-grooming and scratching behaviors, hence, Scratch n All? was born to provide a convenient, safe surface for all animals to satisfy that basic feel-good feeling.
# Cynthia's relationship with animals began with riding lessons when she was just four. At age 10, her first four-legged companion, an Irish setter, joined the family. Today, Cynthia cares for two dogs, a horse and a donkey at her home in Central Pennsylvania.
The many animals she cared for over the years engendered a deep respect and love for our fellow creatures and her keen observation of their needs and individual personalities produced an appreciation for the gifts these companions freely give.
To return a portion of that animal devotion, Cynthia gives her time and talents to assist various transport groups which are dedicated to rescuing domestic animals and pets from the certain death that awaits them at high-kill shelters. She and her daughter traveled to Mississippi after Hurricane Katrina to aid in animal rescue efforts there, helping to save the lives of many displaced and abandoned pets affected by the storm's immediate devastation and prolonged after effects. Cynthia also worked with an area group that rescues exotic animals. These efforts arise from her understanding that all animals, indeed all of nature, are gifts with benefits essential to both our well-being and basic survival.
Cynthia and Teddy Cynthia's grasp of the fragile inter-relationship between people and our natural surroundings is also evident in her lifestyle choices. She's a vegetarian and an organic gardener who prefers to work with nature whenever possible, and chooses a holistic approach to life. For Cynthia, Scratch n All? is another tool to help enrich the lives of the creatures in our care.
