Polo Wraps

I've never used polo's so excuse my ignorance

If someone could explain how to correctly wrap them that would be awesome!
I know that it's important to wrap correctly or they could end up doing more damage than good, well at least that's what I've heard!

Thanks!

both those articles look good...they explained it better than i can...just make sure you do secure them when you use them, if they become unwrapped or loose it can be dangerous or spook them!!

also make sure not to wrap too tight!!! this could cause the opposite effect of keeping their legs warm and end up cutting of blood circulation and even hinder full fluid movement
