This explains exactly why the fronts and the backs should be different.

Dusty's coffin bone injury is healing nicely. Grady was such an absolute mess when he got her over a year ago he could hardly walk. Between my daughter and the excellent farrier we have his feet are now almost 100%. <br /><br />I think your posts are very informative and easy to understand.

My mare is having some problem being very far back on her heels in the front.

He used to have nice round fronts like that--and spades in the back. That was a good way to put it.

My mare, on the other hand, has really nice shaped back feet but the front ones are all sorts of messed up. We've been going through a lot of hoof issues, though, so hopefully before too long we'll be back on track.in2paintshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15721328264615241612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3374098783533915699.post-8176623403533446972011-03-24T17:27:02.127-04:002011-03-24T17:27:02.127-04:00Pie has perfect feet (of course!)
