You should. Cowboy boots are riding boots, built so that it is easy to slip into the stirrups and keep your foot in the stirrups without your foot slipping out like what would happen if you had boots with no defined heels on them. Cowboy boots are best for Western saddles. For English saddles, though, you may need a different type of riding boot that is built for English riding saddles. There's nothing dangerous about having the proper footwear for riding horses. It's actually more dangerous if you do NOT have the proper footwear for riding in the saddle because it could be really bad if your foot suddenly slipped through the stirrups and you couldn't get your foot out if you had to get off your horse right away.
