After wearing remedial shoes for 12 months until his hock spavin stabilized, the shoes (high heels on the backs and rolled toes on the fronts) came off in August last year.

For a while Pintos feet looked very odd as they adjusted to the new angles again, but at last I think we are getting somewhere.

The photos were taken in a rush (getting ready for lesson) on my phone, so they aren't great :o

Trimmed today

Hi, he looks to have good quality horn. I wouldnt be happy with the balance though. I also think he is a bit high in the heel. The frogs could do with being a bit stronger as well, doent look like they will have any contact with the ground. I am fairly new to this though so sure someone with more knowledge will be along soon to offer advice.
