Since I don't wear shoes on any of my horses, (NO! This is

problem...obviously.
It is interesting that my farrier wants me to leave my boy's barefoot
starting about Nov. They are all due in about a week. These are boys that are
done every 5-7 weeks, depending on the horse. My daughters 4-H pony is done
every 5 weeks. He was given a shot of HA (not Legend but an off brand)
intravenously 5 weeks ago (because of arthritis) and has not taken a
lame step since. He has been on oral HA for 2 years, since his Shock Wave
Therapy. We will try him barefoot for the winter with HA injections when needed.
YEH!!!! Beccy in Ut.
