...the farrier came...hoo-bloody-ray!
Don't let it be said that I'm stuck in my ways, or am unwilling to try new things. But having spent eight weeks barefoot the boys are finally sound again with shoes back on.
Barefoot doesn't suit every horse or sensitive owner (mentioning no names), but they are happy clomping about the yard now, and so I'm happy too.
Yesterday afternoon Steve's van rattled down the driveway, the boys were right out in the fields grazing. They waited until he'd parked and walked to the yard, and put themselves into their stables to wait for Steve to shoe them! You couldn't make this stuff up. Suffice it to say, Tom & Henry invited farriery yesterday, and got it.
See the pictures:
Happy hooves, happy horses, happy butler.
