This message is from: Janine <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hello there, my name is Janine and I own 2 fjords. I have had shoes put onmy mare in the past for several reasons but when I bought my stallion his feet were horrible and I needed to trim him every week just to bring the hoof back to the proper shape. ( Lorens was used and neglected on a PMU farm in Alberta where his feet were done every 6 months or so.) His hooves are almost perfect now but during the reshaping process he had very sensitive toes so I purchaced a pair of Old Macs only after my ferrier recomended them. I have not had one complaint nor have the 3 other horses at my boarding farm that use them almost daily. My boy walks out with confidence now on rough ground and rocks and the size he takes is a 6 even though he is the drafty type of fjord. The best bet it to measure for fit using the guide lines set by the manufacturer and make sure they are snug when you go out and I ber you'll love them too.
