Re: forging

My mare forges if I let her go too long (which doesn't seem very long)
without trimming, but haven't noticed it with over excitement.  What does
your farrier say?

> My arab forges in rough terrain or when he gets overly excited (like
during endurance rides!). He does not forge when training or working. He
has a club right foot and I keep him on a 6 week schedule. It was suggested
to me to use bell boots, unfortunately I found out on the last 50 that the
bell boots rubbed his fetlocks raw! Does anyone have any suggestions as to
how the forging or the rubbing can be prevented? Thank you.
