MsHorsetrainer, She …
MsHorsetrainer, She is trimming my horses for barefoot performance so the name fits. I’ve been through all the arguments for years. People need to do what works for them, shoes or no shoes. Not everyone is prepared to make barefoot work for them. But the info is out there for those who want to pursue it. Calling people names on the internet just makes you look arrogant. Maybe because you are. bcbeaupied owes you no explanations.

By all means, if you want your horse barfoot, then go for it. Im not trying to preach that shoes are the only way to go. I am just saying that for my horses situation – they worked. There is no way I am taking them off, because they work. It is as simple as that. If you as me, the people that do nothing but preach barefoot are the close minded ones.

Thanks for your …
Thanks for your concern, but if I were close minded, would I have tryed the barfoot route? Or would I have tryed switching farriers 3 different times? No, I wouldn’t have. To be honest, I have a happy, healthy and pain free horse at home, and I have those shoes to thanks for it. He told me that the shoes would better support my horses’s stiffles, and they do just that. He hasn’t locked up once since he got these shoes. Not once. I tryed barefoot, and it didnt work.

yes, it sounds from …
yes, it sounds from your comments that you are being closed minded. I meant to say you should listen to what allbreedsgood had to say to you about the angle of the hoof shod or not shod. Tell us all technically why you think the shoes are solving the problem? We can all learn together. Did your farrier tell you why they are working or did he just say your horse needs them?

MsHorsetrainer, …
MsHorsetrainer, nobody’s trying to prove anything. I made a little video of my trimmer. You are the one reading into it that it’s supposed to convince anyone of anything. However, if you DO want to know this horse’s story, then click on the video response by “horsedesigns” and then you can learn about this horse. Also, this trimmer doesn’t need to make a video. She is so busy she is turning down clients. If you want to learn more, there are plenty of places to do it other than my lil home video.

great advertising …
great advertising for this lady and I am all for leaving a horse barefoot but this video did not prove a thing about this particular horse. First this horse had a normal foot with no apparent abnormalities. She would have done better to convince the non believer’s if she had worked on such as mentioned. And, she needs to have a video or some explaination of why the problem footed horse went from problem to no problem. Like I said great ad for the lady.
