Solo has been just hanging out for the last 3 years. In 2008, had xrays done on his front feet and he has bone spurts, laterally, on both. Today, we put on Epona shoes ( he has been barefoot and doing well with no riding but still has days where he not quite right). Farrier used glue and the 2 nails on each side of the hoof . We shall see if this helps him be more comfortable and maybe, even get to where we can do just flat work. I did not want to pack him yet, wanted to see how basic Epona shoes goes. And I like to be able to clean out feet and see what is going on. We did not put glue along the back so that if I do decided to pack, we can fill in later.

This was so much fun and Mace was a superstar. We were the queen from snow what, My instructor was snow white and her horse was Dopey. First time we have jumped 3 ' at a show. And in costume!
