This is true but too often he is the "first" one to be blamed because a lot
of people think lameness issues come mainly (or even only) from the hoof. 
Ridecampers know better but backyard horse people do not.  Sometimes people
expect their farriers to perform miracles....is that perhaps why some are
so egotistical?  :)
