BEWARE OF WHO YOU CHOOSE
Beware of who you choose as a farrier. i will not post there name on here. these pictures were taken about a week or two after his trim and the "craigslist farrier" (that is where i found his add) left his toes to long (on the fronts which are shod and the back where he was actually VERY lame at a walk in) and did not trim his bars back. i had my trusty barefoot friend come out today ( she is wonderful she helped me with this even while it was POURING down rain) she shoed me how to trim his bars back and what they really are suppose to look like (i didn't get pictures today after we did it because i did not want to get my camera wet but i will get some and post them soon)
if you would like to know who it was please message me directly.
also if your looking for a good barefoot trimmer let me know she might have some more opening and will travel (she lives in elma and comes down for chance where in Olympia)
This is the hoof he is lame in
