[QUOTE="CattleAnnie, post: 29552, member: 220"] I've got one gelding in particular that has very tender soles. If you ride him on hard ground, he winces along slowly. Makes it very difficult to keep up with cattle. However, as bizarre as it might sound, if he has a set of fronts on, he steps out perfectly. Being neither a farrier nor a veterinarian, I can't tell you why it works, only that even if we're trailing cattle down the gravel road or crossing a rocky ford, he travels more comfortably with shoes on and never pulls up lame, unlike barefooted, in which he'll be sore for days after and therefore useless to the operation. Take care. [/QUOTE]
