Re: [RC] barefoot and circulation - Chris Paus

Exactly. My farrier only uses 3 per side and my horses
keep their shoes on pretty well. He leaves out the
heel nail. I've seen a horse with good feet and one
with crappy feet actually get better with his expert
shoeing!

To shoe many Arabs properly, often the heel nail
must be left out on
"standard" shoes.  I've never had a problem with
shoe stability with only
three nails per side, given a decent farrier and a
horse with even
averagely (is that a word?) decent feet.
