I am putting them into my cement runs next week because they are easier on the feet and legs.. Sue Madlung - Shadowacre Reg'd German Shepherds Anyone thinking of using the horse mat (stuff), first go to a local tack shop and buy a horse magazine and go the back to look at all the ads or google rubber horse mats (matting) and you will find a host of things that may be smaller, interlocking and easier to use than the huge heavy sheets available at Tractor Supply, Agway, etc. My sister put some neat stuff in the bottom of clay stalls that actually had a honeycomb texture...non skid, easy to work with. I would like that for outside, but would probably prefer the traditional stuff on concrete...anyway, they can make it sized to fit so you won't be dealing w/ trimming those other heavy things....
