shoers and LORI, are you out there?

[dluehosh@juno.com]

Hi guys, well, I just had the most interesting experience with a shoer I
have ever had. Now I remember why I went to vet school. 
He came out and insulted me first thing when he got out of his truck,
then got progressively worse as I just asked for what I wanted... for MY
horses. He left one shoe on the first horse WITH the clinches sticking
out, told me he's been shoeing for 35 years and that I should shoe my own
horses if I knew so much. AFTER asking my opinion. 
HOw about that. Then he said, this isn't his work, got in his truck and
took off.
With the clinches and first shoe still on the horse. DIdn't ask any
history on the horse, or want to see him go.
SO, I am still looking for a good shoer- and I will haul to get there if
I have to. If Lori Hayward is out there, would love to talk to you! I
lost your address in the big email loss.
Maggie M, care to comment? Why do farriers insist on insulting people who
have done the work and do know something about shoeing?

Gwen (blowing off steam, and looking for a good shoer... )
