Thank you very much for replying. I have moved her onto grass and away from hay that wasn't the best quality, and she is improving. Thank you.

Thank you....
No she is nowhere near overweight LOL She is as trim as can be. No laminitis problems no. She is not a pony sadly she is a stunted horse but has done well health wise due to when I got her she has had excellent care now for 22 years. I just figured it was because being up in age the hair grew more to protect her during the colder months. Yep, gonna build me a bird sanctuary outta that hair! LOL
Thanks again!

Dear Herb, (July 2006)
Actually she is a doll when I handle her feet. When I bought her from my cousin I was warned about this behavior, but I didn't expect it to be as dramatic as it was. I clean her feet everyday and she lets me apply hoof dressing, thrush treatment, etc. It's just when the farrier comes out she acts looney. Yesterday I was working with her, and she had a rock stuck in tight by her frog and she let me scrape it out without issue, and I used a flat piece of kindling to scrape and tap along her hooves like a rasp would do and she was perfectly still. I think something must have happened to her when she was young and now she is just leery of all farriers. My farrier is a woman, soft spoken and gentle so there is no reason to fear her, but it's got to be some deep seeded fear from past experience.
Thanks for getting back to me.

PS: I tried some Quietex oral paste and it seemed to work somewhat.
