... the fact that farriers are reluctant to charge a decent price for a trim. So it makes more sense to shoe horses,unless you are one of the few who are so passionate about the natural capabilities of the hoof that you don't mind not earning much!!!!!!!
That makes sense.
One of the things I found when I was using a farrier was I was made to feel like a second class citizen because it was 'only a trim', So I had to wait till he was shoeing a horse on the yard to get mine seen.
I would rather have paid a bit extra and get the same importance attached to my horse as the shod ones.
