Hi, I have posted problems with this before but they have just got worse. When I got my TB 3 months ago, he shed his shoes constantly, got a nail bone infection and so we removed the shoes and cleared up the infection. In the meantime he was wearing Old Macs which in turn caused thrush. That is all cleared up now but when the horn had grown out the farrier came to fit shoes but couldn't because his soles are so thin. Where he tried to fit the shoes, my poor boy is really sore (that was just under a week ago). Instead of iron shoes we decided to try plastic ones (Imprints) and they were fitted yesterday by an experienced fitter. And now one has come off!!
I am worried because he seems so sore nearly a week later and because I dont know what I can put on him for work or turn out to protect his feet. Has anyone got any ideas?
