Local vet wants me to cut off severely underrun heels on navicular horse THEN build them back up with SuperFast or Equibuild and shoe him full with an egg-bar or navicular shoe and pads.My brain does not like the idea of cutting off heels just to build em up again....except maybe to correct the hoof/pastern angle angle and give him a better base of support.What are your thoughts on this?
