Ive recently got a 2.5 yr old cob who has had very little done with his feet.
He has never had the farrier see to his hind feet, just his front, as his previous owner said he doesnt like having his back legs picked up.
I have started brushing his hind legs - which he will let me do, but if i run the brush down his leg as if i am about to ask for his hoof he picks his leg up and strikes out. So far I havent actually asked for his hoof (ive only had him 3 days!), ive just been brushing.
How would you go about sorting this out?
