I think I have found a farrier for my horses, I am so-o-o happy! I have been very unhappy with my traditional blacksmith because he just won't even come close to the natural trim although I gave him a nice book on the subject. He did do better for a couple of trims. Now he charges me more money and has completely reverted back to the old way. A few weeks ago I was looking at the local want ads on the web and found an ad for a natural hoof trim lady. We made arrangements for her to come out to trim my horses and she came this morning. She was wonderful with my horses. She was very knowledgeable and did a superb job. We talked and talked. We even discovered we both know some of the same horse folk. And whats ever better is she might invite me out on trail rides to Bankhead National Forest with her and her riding buddies!
I woke up to a nightmare this morning. It went like this: Kyffin, my darling, young, dark yellow Lab, and I were walking through a fascinating jungle. I was oohing and aahing along the way, while she ran from one exciting smell to another. We came upon a small lake. On a bank beside the water was three large tortoises. I was so interested I made a beeline for them. Silly Kyffin ran beside me and when she saw the water, being a Labby, she dove right in. Only then did I see the three huge crocodiles in the water just a few feet away from her. One obviously showed interest in her, turned toward her and was on the move and sinking under the surface to catch her before I could scream for her to come ... then I woke up, terrified and nearly in tears. Then I popped out of bed to get ready for the farrier to arrive and all was well, my Kyffy hadn't been gobbled up by a crocodile after all!
