This message is from: "Gail Russell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Was he trimmed regularly while barefoot? Sometimes people extend their trim intervals when they take a horse barefoot.
Gail We had the opposite experience with our daughter's thoroughbred - when we got him they had been keeping him barefoot in the winter and put shoes on in the spring through the fall. He had thin hoof walls and we played hell keeping shoes on him in the spring. The FjordHorse List archives can be found at: http://tinyurl.com/rcepw
