This morning I went to the barn to watch the Farrier work, Booger only had shoes on his front but none on is back. The Farrier took the shoes off and filed down all his hooves. Apparently they were quite long which was probably why he was constantly stumbling, and the shoes were too small for him so hopefully going barefoot will help his confidence and balance.
Tomorrow morning, I won't work him too much in the saddle since he will probably still be a bit sore, we'll do a lot of ground work for a while and then I will work with him on the trot and some circling and backing up. I will also be taking the camcorder so I can record our session so I can look over it and as a memory.
