Hi,
I had the same issue with my horse about 7 years ago when I took him
barefoot. We just trimmed to balance the hooves and he never interfered again.
It's interesting because the reason I went barefoot with all my horses back then
is because my farrier was taking my horse off balance in order to try to get him
to stop interfering. Well if you have ever had a foot injury and have had to
walk crooked you know the pain that radiates throughout your body. I had such
an injury and one day walking to the barn I realized what pain my farrier was
putting my horse through - long story short all shoes were pulled and I have
never looked back.
Best of luck to you with your new horse.
With Warm Regards,

came with shoes on, He is I guess you could say correct in front His hind end
looks correct with a hint of narrower at the base and toes slightly and I mean
slightly toeing out. Looking at the feet with shoes still on He is longer on
inside wall than outside. But Problem is he is brushing his pasterns with
opposite foot alot at trot occaisionally at walk. I have one of Pete Rameys
books and searched but cannot find anything about correction for that . The
booke I have covers much navicular and founder but not gait. Where do I trim
when I remove shoes. thank you Liz
