RE: [RC] [RC] Pulled shoe - Juli JakubI have to agree with Ti here. Piper had a problem with keeping a shoe and my old farrier turned the heels of the front shoe. Piper got such pinched heels and was so uncomfortable. I put him barefoot for a while and found a new farrier. He does not do this, but does put in an extra nail and he looked at the way Piper was moving and how he was pulling the shoe off and he did some grinding on the shoe he was always pulling and now no more shoe loss problems. He also hot shoes which I also have heard helps...don't know if that is true or not. But I would be careful with turning those heels in. It can cause major problems.<html><DIV> <P>Juli Jakub</P> <P>The Air of Heaven is that which blows between a horse's ears.</P> <P>~ arabian proverb</P></DIV></html> <BLOCKQUOTE style='PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #A0C6E5 2px solid; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px'><font style='FONT-SIZE:11px;FONT-FAMILY:tahoma,sans-serif'><hr color=#A0C6E5 size=1> From: <i>Ridecamp Guest <guest-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx></i><br>To: <i><ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx></i><br>Subject: <i>[RC] Pulled shoe</i><br>Date: <i>Mon, 24 Oct 2005 13:11:01 GMT</i><br>>Please Reply to: ti tivers@xxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx<br>>==========================================<br>><br>>i need a little more info on this one mary. is it the same shoe coming off each time? front only? is he simply overstepping and pulling the front shoe off with the hind foot? if so, just have your farrier turn the heels of the front shoes in just a bit so there is nothing sticking out for that rear foot to hit. you could try ground control shoes also. cowboy ed><br>><br>>This will result in pinched heels and eventually the syndrome commonly known as "navicular".
