[RC] Hot Nail Advice - k s swigartKarla said about her horse getting a hot nail: Is it a sign my shoer is not good? No, it happens to all of them sometimes. Even the good ones. This guy has been amazing so far and was a recommendation from 2 endurance riders who have won just about everything there is to win my region. He has done a superb job so far with my boys. It has taken me a few shoers to find this great one. You might want to reconsider if it starts happening often. Otherwise, I would stick with a great shoer that has done a superb job up until now and comes with recommendations from people who are involved in the same discipline as I am. Different horses take different amounts of time to "recover" from a hot nail. I suspect it depends upon where the nail actually went, and just how long it was there before being noticed. _I_ would consult my vet if the soreness lasted longer than a couple of days. kat Orange County, Calif. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
