Ok Teddy, here's another shoeing problem that for some reason I can't
figure out nor can my farrier. This is not a forging problem, but an
interference problem.. The horse travels at a trot and whacks the He..
out of his inner ankles. He does not do this at the walk as he didn't do
it two weeks ago at the slower level of Natrc (CP), but when I took him
back to Open he started hitting him self again. I have heard that this
could be corrected by dropping the inside wall a little bit causing them
to land wider and (I guess) move in a different direction so the hoof
does not swing up and strike the ankle with the shoe. What do you think
of this Cure? Do you have any suggestions? Anyone else with any ideas?
Selling the horse is always first on my list, but I have a long story on
why I can't do that, any way, I've worked so hard on training and
conditioning that we've Bonded I guess. Plus I'm one of those folks that
ride the ones they have instead of looking for the Perfect Horse.
