Well Its been four weeks since farrier has been. We are onto eight week trims now but Im still paying attention to them and watching how they are developing but I am still learning this.

Kia's feet have been brilliant :D We have been for two long vaired terrain hacks and he stomped the whole way out and the whole way back, also cantering/galloping at his usual speeds :)

Hes still prefering tarmac and soft ground to really stoney stuff but he will get there I think :D

I'm not great telling things from photos but watching these feet in action the other day, there isnt much wrong with them :D

You know, the other day when we were out, 5 of the 9 horses (and 4 of the 6 that did the full ride) were barefoot. Its great that its becoming so popular these days - there must be a lot of happy horses out there :D

He was bouncing along wasnt he :D It was great hearing all the clipcloping coming from hard BF hooves and not Shoes :D :D

He was also the ONLY BF pony during the Lanark ride I did with my friends, they were stunned when they realised he wasnt clip clopping with the rest and that he was power trotting along with Sandy who is a long strided 16.2hh TB :D

They look a bit tatty still but hoping by the spring they will have settled :D
