I had Gail Snyder, my mentor for barefoot trimming, come over today to check up on my work and advance my learning and skills. She gave me a good grade for the work I'm doing - a nice thing. I'm going to keep working on Rain's shape from her crooked legs and I'll make sure to keep the bars from creating a bump or lump next to the groove.
We talked for a while on nutrition. I have not spent a lot of time studying horse nutrition and I struggle with the idea of feeding my animals better than I feed myself. I guess the difference is that they don't have a choice... I do.
We talked about Pergolide a bunch, too. She's a very educated woman who cares deeply for healthy horses. I like her a whole lot.
