To me, looks like Bert has underslung heels. I would say his angles need to come up to be even with his angles of his pasterns.

Look at the angle of his pasterns, now look at the angle of his heels. The heels are way steeper and under, slung under so to speak.

Well at least, if nothing else, you know that horse can grow some serious hoof. I can't believe they got that long in 4 months time. Usually if they get that long, they just get crushed under the weight of the horse. Once this farrier gets the hooves into better alignment, he should do very well.
