[RC] pulled shoes - Ridecamp GuestPlease Reply to: Diane Day fourdays@xxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== And breakover. Long toes and low heels delay breakover and encourage interference. Any horsethat clicks" at the walk or trot is improperly shod inthis way. Meawhile, running the shoe under the heels simply results in heel contraction and further LTLH configuration--as well as all the lamenesses that arise therefrom Okay now you are scaring me. We have a barrel racing horse that clicks at the walk - farrier said it was okay as long as he doesnt at the trot. He doesnt at the trot. I noticed after the last shoeing that the left rear shoe extends past the his hoof wall - not a lot, but a little. Is that what you are talking about "running the shoe under the heels?" You guys talk about going thru lots of farriers. We have, like, *one* decent one here. People say that is why they do their own. My question is - can you take a couple of courses and be qualified to trim a horse - or do you just end up thinking you are?
