RE: [RC] More Money (was: barefoot trim) - Jessica Raines
My trimmer charges 20.00 for a trim and
has stopped my horse from tripping just by giving him a good well angled trim
for his feet. He will shoe if you want or leave them bare if you want and knows
more about feet than most “special” trimmers I’ve met. A good
trim is just that a good trim. Some horses are best barefoot and some are best
shod. A good horseman keeps his options open and listens to his horse.

"Your horse doesn't need steel shoes, that will be $60 for the special
barefoot trim" is one of the biggest boons to ever come along for
"hoof
care specialists."
Has to be put into perspective, I guess.....some observations from my
neck of the woods......which would you rather do...spend $90 on shoes, and have
a horse that trips month after month .....or $45-$60 on a "natural"
trim and have the horse stop tripping and go sound over time?....this happened
to at least 3 horses I know of....
