The farrier had wanted to leave the bar shoe on Otoelene as long as possible in hopes that she would grow enough hoof to trim out the bad and still have some left to nail back into. She lost the shoe the day before he was coming back. The hoof wall had looked like icing melting off of a cake.
After he put a smaller bar shoe on with no pad this time, he trimmed more of the hoof wall away.

Oh my gosh. I have never seen anything like it! I am so glad there is some progess. I know it can be tiresome. Boy glad you have a farrier willing to work with you! Prayers going out to you and your horse!
