JP :>can figure out what's wrong.  X isn't lame -- nails aren't
JP :>hurting him ...... shoes are on good and proper ..... It's
JP :>nuts!!  Any suggestions??
Might be that he's just developed a phobia to having his front shoes 
done...you know, it kinda starts small and builds and builds until you have a 
real problem...
Have you ever tried one of those paste calmers on him?  Or maybe have the vet 
out to tranq him for the next shoeing or two.  Sometimes just breaking the 
cycle will help.  Other than that, and if you're sure there's no pain 
anywhere (including his shoulders, back, etc) while he's being shod, then I 
don't know, either, Jean!
