Shaping shoes for a foundered pony went against the usual advice

Most farriers I talk to say you need to use a rolled toe shoe for founders, but I found that just makes the breakover weird. I had this pony last spring that was really sore, and everyone kept telling me to go with the standard fix. I mean, maybe it's just me, but I decided to try a flat shoe with a beveled edge instead. I watched how she placed her feet and saw she needed support more in the back. After trimming and putting on my version, she started walking easier in a few days. I figured it out by trial and error and paying close attention to her step. Now I'm not so quick to follow the crowd on this one.
