Work experiance

This was a while ago, Tuesday the 2nd I think, but I though I would update you on doing work experiance with the best farrier, or "Hoof Practitioner" as she is officaly called, for a day. It was great. First place we went to was two old thoroughbreds who looked pretty much abandonded, with rain scold and mud fever. They were super skinny, and their feet, being thoroughbreds, were interesting shapes. Learnt alot there about the shapes and how to trim a horse according to what work they were doing. They next place was almost the extreme opposite! Rather than bonafia racehorses, there were fat, foundering shetlands. The most annoyning think abou that property was that no-one was home, but there dog, whom we nicknamed "Jack", kept trying to climb on the poor little things! He would actually stand, with all 4's, on their back and ride around!!! It was the strangest thing I have EVER seen!!! The lastproperty was a lady, with her eventing mare, and a 14.2 old paddock mate pony clubber. Meet the horsewhispering extrodanaire Nadine Roth, so that was great. All in all, had a great time and learnt HEAPS, but I still think that perhaps it is not the career for me, as bending over hurt my already sore back, and I spent the evening lying on a hot water bottle!
