I am losing the will to live!
Monty had a new set of shoes a week ago on Thursday. 3 days later he pulled one off, the farrier came out and put it back on and 2 days later (today) he has pulled off the other front shoe!
He has good feet and our farrier is a remedial farrier who does them every 6 weeks in the winter then every 5 weeks in the summer. Monty's field is not muddy at the moment and he often wears over reach boots although they don't seem to help
Any ideas please?
 
I can only suggest that you discuss this with your farrier (which I'm sure you've already thought of). Are the heels of his front shoes quite long? Good farriers often do leave them quite long for extra support but this could be contributing to your problems.
