So things have been fairly cruddy lately (though not much worse than usual to be honest, just venting more :lol: because it's safe to vent here). Anyway, the track farrier came here to the farm today to shoe 5 racehorses (long story) so I sucked up my reservations and had him do my pony. The pony came from an auction and is just gross about things and although he REALLY needed it, I felt reservations about having him trimmed. Farriers around here just don't like dealing with bad horses (em, ponies). So I figure the track farrier has dealt with worse, right? LoL. So we give the pony some happy juice (rompun doesn't do anything for him so we have to play the Ace game... I HATE giving ace to geldings)... lip chain. So aside from some mild tantrums and levitating... we get his feet done! This farrier was AWESOME! He was patient with the pony but FAST with the trim... but still checked angles and lengths. He is expensive ($40 for a trim plus I tipped $10 because he was so long and kind of a pain), but he's NICE (as in, didn't complain at ALL about the pony's behavior and infact complimented my handling of him). Yay! New feets: ![]() ![]() ![]() |
