Description: A pair of shoes on an old pony with very dry twisted feet. Sorry, but the camera angle isn't spot on in this video but if you have watched enough from my channel you will know what's going on. I also loose Ralph for a moment as he goes walkabout! Filmed with GoPro Hero8 black Camcorder PLEASE READ THE FAQ's BEFORE POSTING!! 1: Hot shoeing ensures a good fit. 2: No, it doesn't hurt the horse if it's shod correctly by a qualified registered person. 3: The horse is calm because it has been trained from birth to know there is nothing to fear. 4: The majority of horses these days are worked either under saddle or in harness and on hard man made surfaces, shoes protect the feet from wearing down too much and can add grip via studs in the shoes for competition animals. 5: Feral horses have particularly hard feet and manage them naturally by foraging, if they get sick they recover or die, it’s nature. 6: The average horse needs re-shoeing every 6-8 weeks 7: The bit I am nailing to has no nerves and is made of Keratin, the same as your finger nails and hair. 8: The burning smells just like burning hair. 9: The piece I fed the dog is a treat for him.
