Shoe---t!!

Shoulda Kept My Mouth Shut

I never should have told Tucker I was going to ride him today.

Last night he pulled his left front shoe.

I've wrapped his foot with Gorilla tape and Elastoplast for the time being. And, of course, I called my farrier.

It was just about time for trims and shoeing anyhow, but it would have been nice to get on for a bit.  If the Cavello boot fits that foot...not sure...or one of the EasyBoots I have, I may try a little ride later anyhow. But the trouble there is that usually with only one boot on, Tuck's stride is really uneven.

However, we shall see.  More later.

    Maybe you should start putting bell boots on him after you tell him he's going to be ridden! ;)
