Ill affects of shoeing

Back last year I wrote a post explaining why I chose to take Sofie barefoot - one of the many reasons is because nailing shoes into Sof's feet just seems to make them crumble.

Now we are back in shoes and have done a couple of rounds of remedial farriery the crumbly wall syndrome has reared its ugly head again. I took some pics to document it. (Just wanted to point out this is not a criticism of the farrier - they are great, it is just her feet are not strong enough for shoeing)

Just waiting for this to snap

Broken wall from a few weeks ago

eek

not liking the cracks


I'll be honest, I can't wait to get the shoes back off her again. I want feet like we had last September
