    Layne the horse in the other post is pawing the stable floor
    he does it that bad he can paw the toe away in ten days
    this type of wont stop him pawing
    but will give him a bit longer wear
    and protect the foot

    That's a handy way to mark shoe size, could pull it off and know what size needed without having to wait for foot to get trimmed.

    Terminology differences place to place. . .we'd call that a rocker toe. Ran into that some on the exchange
