    Be nice to see a photo of the feet as well. Shoes look fine. Did you change the way you trimmed the horse? or stay the same way? What did you put on? Did you make a set of handmades to put on?

    Is it approprate to start a conversation on another persons forging if they are unaware?

    no pics of feet/not allowed by owner.......the vet didn't like it the shoeing; so owner called me in to see what I could differently.
    1 1/2 inches of toe was removed and I set the toes back under; and used a DF #1 hind.

    yes, it's ok to start a conversation on another persons forging if it is about how to make the shoes forged better/no names ect./just on how the shape or clips could be better, ect...that type of talk.

    it's done to me all the time.

    Reason: they like Kerks...newbies and don't like the shoe--preference.
    Job: Vet wanted them to change farriers.
    Job was not ok; very long long toes/no heels/broken back axis; the best part of the shoeing was the handmades on the horse on the hind end.
    Hand-mades: positives: shoe was level on foot; clips were good; thought nail punching was good; but to far forward on the horse
    negatives was the shape of the shoes; not a left or right; not a pair; seemed racked to me, not the proper size of the hoof [size #1] and not the proper stock size [3/8 better choice] and didn't match the shape of the horses hoof.

    the best part of the shoeing was the handmades on the horse on the hind end. (LINDA)
    How could that be wrong shape, no left or right,wrong section, nails to far forward?
