Due to their feet growing so blooming fast!

Mine have only gone 5 weeks and Lance is looking like a ballerina his toes have got so long, and Beau, who normaly hardly needs anything taken off,looks like he has been left 10weeks!

Thumper could really do with being done every four weeks - but I am trying to go to five.

I've never had a horse that can go longer than five weeks though.
 
Beau and Lance usually go 7-8 weeks, very strange. I think they just try and think of ways to cost me more money!

Hooves are growing for england now, but in summer when Beau demolished his hoof, would it grow so I coud get a shoe on, would it hell!

It would be so nice if I actually shod Be because her feet needed trimming, instead of it being us wearing the shoes out...

One of ours has to be done every four weeks - if I try and leave it for a bit longer he twists a shoe off after 4 weeks and 1 day and pulls chunks of his hoof off with it! Had to miss an ODE earlier this year for this reason so I've had to accept the situation.
