Good point.

For training, use good leather hobbles (meaning, lined inside
with leather or fleece) or soft cotton rope hobbles. Either
way, they should be adjustable to a snug fit, so they'll stay
where they belong on the cannon bone and not slip down to the
pastern.

One source of soft cotton rope hobbles is Craig Cameron's web
site.
