[drivingpairs] Re: barefoot horses & www.naturalhorsetrim.com


Pat is so right about the above referenced web site.  Lots of good info =
and
I didn't mention it because the brain cells weren't firing and I forgot
where to find it.  Thanks for reminding me.  I do wonder what long term
effects the concussive force of road driving will have on legs, joints =
and
connective tissue whether barefoot or shod?  I do feel that going =
barefoot
reduces the impact force and shock that it sends up the legs to a great
extent.  Does anyone have experience road driving the same horse =
barefoot
for over approximately 5+ years?  If so have there been any issue with =
legs,
joints, tendons, hooves, etc., that could be attributed to being =
barefoot
rather than normal wear and tear?  My Fjord pair is young, now with =
perfect
bare feet, and I plan on helping them stay sound so they can be healthy
enough to haul me on my last drive to the old folk's home many years =
from
now. =20
