Wade was asked about the best way to fit a Fruin shoe on a horse with an odd-shaped foot. I heard a story about the late Gary Wade, a member of the International Horseshoeing Hall of Fame, who was the Disney farrier. The Fruin shoe was notorious for being very difficult to reshape.
lasted until 1955, when it was acquired by the Disney Corp., to make shoes exclusively for its theme park horses. started making shoes coated in rubber for street horse work in an attempt to absorb some of the concussion. Metal shoes solved obvious durability problems these earlier versions had, but also created the issue of concussion, particularly on hard surfaces.Ĭenturies later, in 1910, The Fruin Drop Forge Co. Some of the first horsemen used sandals made of rice straw or leather to protect their horse’s feet.
However, she never stocked up or took a lame step while she wore the Love Childs! I will definitely be refining my application process and reapplying these boots in the future.Contrary to popular belief, the concept of non-metal horseshoes is not a recent phenomenon. She is an older girl, 21 years old, and I am cautious of over-stressing her joints. I have never seen Billie move more confidently than she did in these boots. At least half of those miles were on gravel roads. Billie and I logged around 50 miles in these boots. I have had the Easyboot LC on Billie for five weeks. I was very pleased with the performance of these boots. I track all of my riding and was curious to see how the tread of the Easyboot LC did with frequent use on gravel roads. The other trails she has been on once a week recently are single-track, dirt trails with some scattered rocks. This means that a lot of my riding is done on gravel roads. I often ride from my house during the week to eliminate travel time and to stay closer to my home during COVID-19. She is a good candidate for glue-on boots because she is very tender barefoot outside of her paddock or pasture. While I was running around frantically trying to move quickly and efficiently through the gluing process, she just stood there and took a nap. Billie is thankfully an incredibly tolerant horse. This was my first experience gluing on this horse. Written by Eas圜are Product Specialist Jordan Junkermann
