[QUOTE="Lilian, post: 2647876, member: 118837"] I would say if he were in a Diamond 00 that is a tiny shoe the next size smaller would be a pony size! Any decent farrier would never leave a heel sticking out beyond the heel of the foot and then tell you that you should get bell boots for him. Does he sell bell boots also?? If you have a knowledgeable horse person that you would have look at the horse, If he has left them hanging out long enough to be stepped on by a hind foot, I think he should have to either put on a smaller shoe, curve the heels in or cut off the ends of the shoes. If the horse is not long legged and has a short back there should be no reason for him to over reach. If he is built more like that then the front shoes should be rolled and short so they will get out of the way sooner. Good Luck! Don't have a Farrier do your horses if they do it wrong. [/QUOTE]
