Hi, As a horse owner, I found this dialogue so interesting. Just want to say....don't get discouraged about doing good work, or being underappreciated. Only...well, truly "stupid" horse owners underappreciated a food shoeing. It means EVERYTHING"...to the equestrian experience in total. Just drop the ones that want a quick job...the rest of us APPRECIATE YOU!!!
I came to this web site because I used to be Very happy with my farrier's work..but her feet are being trimmed smaller and smaller. Last week...I couldn't believe it..and she is not happy. My little App has great conformation and moves just right...no need for any kind of "correction"..But...why would a farrier keep trimming smaller and smaller. Also, the frog area often has pieces sticking out rather then cut them off. Any ideas guys?
