I was thinking about a girl I use to ride with. She had a very long backed horse, that forged real bad. Her husband was somewhat of a farrier. He was always working to get the forging stopped, shortening the front toes, and that horse had a chronic sore back. The girl finally came to the conclusion that the horse wasn't really sore, he was just sensitve to being touched there. Now I'm wondering:

Did you notice the sore back before or after you trimmed?
