I had the farrier out today. first time using him. I got behind on everyone, and there was no way, with my back, neck and shoulder I could get everyone caught up. So he did Cha'cote first. he was unsure of a new person, but did a good job of trying to be good. Phil used the hoof stand when Cha'cote woud allow it. So this was the 4th time having his fronts trimmed and the first time for the backs.....which barely needed more than a rasp. Snookie was in the worst shape as her feet still behave as founder feet. But she was a good ole girl and and let him make her feet real pretty. Rose was.....ROSE....not too bad, but a bit of a pill at one point or another. All in all, the cost is worth my horses having pretty and healthy feet again, without me killing myself to get it done. Now hopefully I can keep up on it weekly with the grinder. Here's to hope.
I have soccer in the morning....at the butt crack of dawn......ugh! But I absolutely plan on playing with both Rose and Cha'cote tomorrow and play with OLL4 tasks.
