The issues of spray bottles and shoeing can be addressed by the natural 
horsemanship methods described in these posts - even the one-rein 
stop/disengage hind quarters is a natural method - be it Parelli, Anderson, 
Lyons, (or Cowboy Ed) etc.  I believe getting  trust and respect on the 
ground with these exercises accomplishes 3 things: FIRST - Just as it 
implies; 2) ability to TEACH and TRAIN your horse by making them THINK and  
3) LEARNING TO WATCH your horse communicate TO YOU.   I am most amazed at 
what my mare has to say to me through her body language  (AND what "I" have 
been telling HER through mine!)

Enjoy the RIDE!
