RE: [RC] to Jonni -re archives and barefoot - Brenda Jo JonesIf you sit on your foot for too long and it becomes numb (falls asleep) or if you put a tourniquet on your ankle and your foot becomes numb, will it still bleed if you cut it? Does it not become cold? Why would a horse be any different than a human? -----Original Message----- From: Kristen A.

This is consistant with horses with shoes on." My horse is shod; if he nicks himself he bleeds, his feet still grow, so there must be enough blood flow for that. Maybe the other 3 legs are just *hot*?? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brenda Jo Jones" <jonesbjo@xxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, January 27, 2004 9:20 PM Subject: RE: [RC] to Jonni -re archives and barefoot Excuse me, but have you ever seen a thermograph of a shod foot and leg as compared to one without a shoe? Do check it out! http://www.thenakedhoof.com.au/html/purposepage.htm -----Original Message----- I DO get damm sickNtired of the folks that say that all shod horses are being crippled and 'cant feel their feet'.... Of course you, I, and most experienced riders know thats a pile of BS but what about the new to horses folks that read this drivel? Thank you, Teresa. I've been trying to figure out a way to put that diplomatically, but I think you said it best by just flat out saying it.
