Oh, Laurie, I'm so sorry. This type of blunder takes so long to grow out. Thank goodness Oz had enough hoof left to shoe. When we got our first Clydesdale we left him there and returned the next week with the trailer. When we returned to pick him up, the owner had done us a "favor" and trimmed him for us. Clydesdales have poor feet in the best of times (2000# on soft white hooves). We had our farrier out ASAP, there was not enough hoof left to shoe. It took a month before he was sound, and months to get a decent hoof grown back. We were some kind of hot over this, I still get steamed up when I think about it (now 7 years later) so I can relate. I'd be tempted to send him a copy of the two bills you'll have for correcting his blunder, along with a letter, since he won't return your calls. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ More photos; more messages; more whatever.
