barefoot and ridden

[asbo]

looking to get jj's shoes off and try him barefoot, looking for good ways of hardening his feet up and taking care of them

hoof boots!
Keratex!
Dengie Healthy Hooves (lo- cal)
rasp in between trims
let him choose his ground when hacking where poss eg verge not stony path
paddock paradise style turnout google it to find out more
a good equine podiatrist ep if going from shod to unshod

go for it!

Totally agree my horse is now barefoot and will stay like that whilst he's with me! He's so much happier barefoot.
