I used to but dont anymore..Harlee has enough arthritis that she tends to create a fuss..understatement..and I dont think I can keep my eyes open enough to do a level job..plus my back kills me when I used to do it myself.. Those farriers are worth every cent.. I have a farrier who will do half-trims so that she only has to have 2 feet done each time.. easier on her..She is basically retired now, especially since I am not comfortable riding her by myself and I lost my gelding a couple yrs ago..lets just say she isnt a beginners horse.. laughing maniacally...
