Re: [RC] pulling shoes now OLDER horse - Sisu West Ranch

"...Do you mean to say these people wait more than 3-4 months to call a farrier when their horses are shod??..."
 
 
If you have identified an excellent Farrier (or barefoot trimmer), he or she will be very busy.  I submit for your consideration, that a prudent person makes the next appointment before he leaves the barn.
 
A bare or shod hoof that has been neglected causes problems.  I suspect that you don't wait until your own shoes have a hole in the sole, and you have a bleeding foot before you go shopping for a new pair.  Our horses deserve the same consideration.
