Lost shoe, no farriers available for at least four days - solutions for turnout?

Rasp the heads of the clinched nails emerging from the hoof wall and pull the shoe. If it’s going to be wet, forego wrapping. If the ground is muddy and soft, I would skip the boot and turn out as is. If you do boot, I’d try to use a boot with a sole thickness similar to his steel (or whatever material) shoe.
