How to Pull A Shoe - Your Horse's Not Your Own!
Aack! We have all had that sick feeling in the pit of our tummies of going to get our trusty steed from their pasture or stall and noticing that they have smeared one of their shoes sideways on the hoof, oftentimes with the clip shoved into the white line. Of course, we want our farrier or vet to magically appear before our eyes, but the reality is they are tied up on previous appointments and cannot drop everything to come to our rescue. The Solution? Master Farrier Sean Gaul and his assistant Chaise Cantrell have put together a quick informative video detailing how to pull a shoe and the tools you will need!
