: Shannon,
: If you have a stall jack you may find that you will be tempted to shoe a horse cold.
: A.S.H.
: My $0.02, Bill

If you can level the foot and shape the shoe to fit correctly what could possibly be wrong with cold shoeing, the same shoes are used by both "hot" and "cold" shoers,having shod for 30 years and use both methods I really find no advantage of one over the other unless problems are found that need to be corrected. [Forging and shoeing are two different job descriptions!]
