I've seen a lovely horse advertised nearby which sounds perfect except that it needs to be sedated (Dormosedan gel) to be shod. Apart from £35 being added on to each shoeing which could be mightily expensive if you get through shoes a lot hunting in the winter, would this put you off? I'm not sure my farrier would be that keen.
It is putting me off going to see it because it just sounds a bit odd. The current owner has had horse for 4 years I think and I have only heard good things about it but I have never come across a horse that needs sedating to be shod.
Any thoughts from anyone?
