My first time shoeing a Percheron went smoother than expected!

He was calm and the shoes set well. What's your routine with draft breeds?

Ever run into issues with draft horses during shoeing? I find their size often leads to unexpected problems, even with calm ones. My routine involves a lot more prep work for drafts.

Know what you mean, @abby926. My draft once shook the whole barn.

My Shire Duke stood perfectly still for his first shoeing yesterday, just like your Percheron.
