I like Pete Ramey Me too! ......That's all I can contribute atm as I've no time to read atm!! I've recently got his DVD set and imo there are loads of things in there for all horse owners. Even if it doesn't sit well with you there is a lot to make you think and question which is always good. ;D

I cant belive this, I actually thought thread had at last died... But JG came back with more responces
and generally the whole thread has become much nicer.. by all of us..
by the way in my paragraph ref ignorance is bliss, I was not aiming at you not knowing about footcare. :-) JG.
But can you please put up some shod and unshod pics.. it does not need all the herd!

Co-incidentally I tried to take some foot pics yesterday but wasn't very successful as I was on my own with very nosey pones, and I only got one foot! These feet are a week off needing doing again so aren't particularly tidy or clean, and you can see where the growth needs to come off again already, and they are a bit thrushy, but they're pretty typical of my farrier trimmed herd: Last month these feet were doing 20 mile rides but we've wound down a bit since. I'll try and get pics of the others after the farrier has been next time.

You can't leave it at that, Esther, you need to tell us whose feet they are too

It's deceptive cos he's got a lot of winter coat on his legs - his feet aren't that small. H is fine, though And not up for being burglarised.
