eggbar shoes



Hello all,
I'm hoping someone may be able to tell me if eggbar shoes would be 
helpful for my horse.  As she plants each  rear foot, her heel pivots 
outwards through the stance phase of her walk.  Does any one have any 
experience with this gait pattern?  Does it predispose her to hock 
problems later in life?  The vet suggested eggbar shoes to prevent 
the pivoting, and I'm wondering what our ridecamp "resident" vets 
have to say or anyone else out there who has some experience with 
this.  Thanks in advance for any advice or insights!!
