Honest to god Richie, this is silly. We're going to now debate who the 'best' farrier is and take a swipe at someone who did the best they could with a tough, likely impossible, situation?
First of all, Ian McKinlay isn't a farrier. He is a hoof treatment specialist that specifically treats problem feet, and has been respected and appreciated by horsemen for decades. His methods have been adopted by young veterinarian podiatrists widely, and no one will argue that he has advanced the progress of understanding hoof care.
Ray Amato is generally recognized as the East Coast's top smitty.
