Yesterday Buzz's shoe had come away a little at the heel so contacted the farrier who was coming on weds anyway so slotted him in. Today I went to check him over and the shoe had moved so the front of the shoe (the name of which has completely escaped me!) was wedged in his white line 😱
I managed to pull the shoe (there was only one nail still holding it in) but I was wondering if/how much damage there may be to his white line? I will ask my farrier tomorrow about it but it's not something I've seen happen before so I was wondering if anyone had!
Interestingly though he walked fine over the stony gateway with the unshod foot, may be thinking of taking them off...but I do like to compete and am doing ODEs on grass so I'm not sure yet, more research needed!
