Re: [RC] [RC] Low heels (was navicular) - Trailrite
If most Arabs are supposed to have "in general" low heels...why do we have over 30 horses "Arabs" here on this ranch...and not one of them have low heels. Better recheck this general statement.
If you are shoeing your horses balanced then, this will not be the case. Anyone that knows our horses and have came to see them for purchasing will know this is true. We get them in sometimes with various types of hoof problems. But with our farriers, (Rob Kalb & Levi Robinson) they soon start to form a normal hoof over time.
Oh Yeah, they look just like the ones here on the ranch that have never had shoes on. Can't tell the difference until you'll notice that some have medal on the bottom for hoof ware protection vis over ware with the miles put on hard & rocky ground.
If you can't afford shoes or proper hoof protection, feed, shots, etc...my opinion is don't own a horse. With that said, my grandson & I are off for the Tevis...with shoes on our horses!
See you on the trail, and good luck to all that are entered!
