Subject: Help needed on an abused horse problem.

I need some help.
I have a 12 y/o Percheron/Thoroughbred named "Chunky". She was given to me about 3 months ago, and I've come across a problem. While under the care of her previous owner a ferrier took it upon himself to enforce a little "discipline" on her. Apparently she was pulling her hind legs a little more than he was comfortable with and he beat her with a file. She has become so skiddish about working with her feet, that when I recently tried to have her hooves trimmed it took 3 people to do it, and wasn't any fun for us or her. As you can imagine this isn't gonna work. She's terrified, and if I can't fix this either her or someone else is gonna get hurt. Do you have any suggestions ? Any help would be appreciated.
In the off chance your interested the ferrier is no longer in buisness. In fact he is no longer among us. He met a horse that wasn't so friendly.
