Re: glue shoes

["Duncan Fletcher" <dfletche@gte.net>]

Not sure of the brand, but my farrier has one horse (not mine) which uses
glue-on shoes. Very pricey - not just for the shoes, but for his labor. The
hoof has to be virtually polished to get them to hold - time consuming. This
is an elderly non-breeding stallion (with very thin walls) that is not
ridden. I suspect long rides would put too much stress on the glue joint.

those results.  Its pricy,  25$ per shoe including glue excluding labor. So,
if anyone has any experience they would like to share  whether good or bad i
would be greatly appreciative.  tomsites  goearth@shentel.net
