This group is dedicated to the care and welfare of barefoot horses, everywhere, all breeds. We specialize in hoof-related matters, although we discuss other subjects such as general physical problems, nutrition, lifestyle, maintenance, behavioral issues. This is a restricted and monitored list. Off-topic posts are discouraged, as are posts advocating invasive trimming methods; personal attacks against individuals are not tolerated. The objective is to share problems concerning our horses and to offer solutions. We encourage "newbies" as well as experienced horsepeople to join us. We "owners" are just caretakers who've assumed the responsibility for our equine friends, and those who join here take that responsibility seriously.

This week's photo: We are delighted to present Ms. Journey Kevlin! She's a 5-yr-old mare, owned, of course, by Robyn Kevlin.

Last week: Thank you, Bensin9, for showing us your two beauties, Shimron and Drivaldi!
