A FINAL TRIMWorking horses were re-shod on a regular basis as the

hooves became overgrown or the shoes became worn. Using a rasp the farrier gives a final trim to the hoof of a Suffolk Punch after fitting a new shoe. The forefeet were usually shod first as the horse was more likely to keep

calm if it could see what was happening.
