Hi everybody...just my two cents ...lol

I have attended a Pete Ramey clinic...where he told us that his wife has 
carriage horses and they where barefoot. He said they would grow hoof 
acccording to what the work load is... he said when he took them off work 
for a rest of a month or more...they would have to be trimmed every week 
because there hoofs where growing so fast and the growth would slow down 
when they worked less.

So that tells me that a hoof will grow according to what the workload of a 
horse is .

Clinton Anderson ....has only the hind hoofs of his reining horses shod , 
because they slide better. All his horse are trimmed by Pete Ramey or after 
his method. Clinton's in house apprentices have received training from Pete 
Ramey on how to trim the horses themselves.

My endurance horses are barefoot and i have a heck of a time to find a boot 
for him. He wears a size 0 EZ boot ...but i hardly put them on because every 
time i do he over reaches with his hind and hits the back of the front boot.
I haven't figure that on out yet. lol
