    Yep ..... that's when she's lost them -- in the pasture - and THIS time
Buddy SAW them running around like crazy.  That was Friday and the only day I
didn't clean her feet or rinse her down.  Saturday I noticed right away that
she was missing a shoe.  Buddy went out in the pasture and looked for the 
hoe
-- he found it almost exactly where the horses had been running/playing.

    Ok ....... I thought he WAS doing that -- maybe not enough. Our farrier
told us when we got her that he could tell she was overstepping on her left
side as she had a tiny "scar" on her left front pastern (that is what it's
called -- right above the hoof on the backside).  He told us he corrected 
hat
and rolled the toes so she wouldn't do it.  Maybe he didn't do it enough on 
the
right side.  I'll make sure I question him about it next time he comes out.
 > Pretty frustrating, huh?
    Yep ...... she's the only one we've ever had problems with like this 
......
AND, SEDONA is only turned out for about 3-4 hours a day (we didn't change 
er
patterns - that's how she was treated at the barn she came from and she seems
to like it that way -- she whinnies for you to come out and put her back in 
her
stall).
    Thanks for the your reply!!
