Well, I do like the epona shoes. They did not help Solo much as far as riding. Last month, tried some walk trot with him and still stiff. I do think that the arthritis in his hips is getting worse. The day after our short ride he did seem more ouchie on his fronts. So no riding for Solo. The shoes did seem to help him be move better when in his stall or out in the pasture. This year he seems to be a bit more sore, cannot wait for winter to be over. What I do really like about these shoes is that if you loosen the nails and put the nails out, shoe can easily be re-used. There was a little bit of wear on the toe but nothing eles. Thinking you could get at least 2 uses out of one pair.

I will warn those that visit this blog that these are my ramblings, my personal experiences with my OTTBs and my future plans or dreams that involve OTTBs. Nothing here is meant to be a 'solution' or professional advice in regards to the training of these wonderful horses, for I am just an amateur.
