Had the opportunity to try out the UK hind style Sport Horse shoe by the stock thickness and overall weight of the shoe is much lower than the regular style 👍

Goldie is all set up for winter with Pink half mesh pads, DIM and C13 traction pins and snow pads. These larger pins have been great for adding more stability than the smaller pins we used to use.

Had a nice chat with Dr. Travis Kelter and we discussed what our approach would be for this mare as she recovers from an injury.

Having a direct conversation between the farrier and the veterinarian allows for a clear line of communication and makes sure they're both on the same page.

Here we have a young gelding who has a suspected DDFT injury in the left hind.

We opted to use the EasyShoe 3D by . These shoes are very lightweight and flexible. We want to encourage blood flow to aid in the healing process.

In order to achieve the heel elevation we desired, I took inspiration from Peter Peers Farrier innovative work.

I started by drilling holes in the ground surface of the shoe and then texturizing and heating the area where I wanted to apply the SuperFast. After it is set, I ground the material into a nice rolling profile.

Because of his very upright pastern, I wanted to make sure that we didn't go too far and create a broken forward hoof pattern axis. Which I think we achieved quite nicely.

I've nominated my father, Lance Sloman, for the International Horseshoeing Hall of Fame. For those who knew him, you understand his passion and dedication to the craft. And his love of farriery and farriers.

Tomorrow at Spruce Meadows, there's an event he was so excited to see and be a part of that sadly he didn't get to participate in. The Blacksmith World Championships presented by World Championship Blacksmiths. That's why it is such an honor that they've created a special Lance Sloman Memorial class to celebrate his contributions.

There will also be an Anvil Toss this week as well. Thank you to Dustin Small Small Bar Smithy for the beautiful piece of art work.

If you believe he deserves this incredible recognition, you can submit a nomination form on the American Farriers Journal website here: https://www.americanfarriers.com/international-horseshoeing-hall-of-fame

I also welcome you to share any personal stories or memories you have of him. Feel free to message me directly or email me at [email protected]. You can also find forms to fill out in person at tomorrow's event.

Thank you for your support. Good luck to all the competitors tomorrow!
