pickle had a trim today, and trav was able to get most of the past damage sorted out and were on the last part of the old monster abcess holes. Now theyre plugged with blue ball wax, so I think the next trim will see the back of them once and for all, its been a long slog especially because of the size of them and the whole hoof capsule was just so dodgy, but now the integrity has much improved, were nearly there, but they'll never be pretty. Trav has said they're about as good as it's ever going to get for him and all you can do is your best with nutrition and regular trimming etc and role with the punches.
Pickle was an absolute gentleman today and we know its the hammering he hates and reacts to when shoeing, so were going to see after the next trim about measuring him up.for boots so he can go for walks again, because his soles are so flat he just cant go barefoot on the road or tracks , as much as I've pumped the nutrition into him , there needs to be concavity and he has none.
Tammy was with him today on the job and she was really lay back and so was he , he was interested in her but very chilled out which i was so proud of him and her too, she'd go under him here and there and even though he'd never hurt her on purpose she needs to learn you don't go under there.
that will happen as she gets older and learns the ropes. and she does listen when being corrected which is a relief .
so for once there was no drama, no antics , and everything on a loose rein , its a win win 👏

Tammy, hard at it yesterday, she only had a half day due to the heat , but earlier in the week she did 3 full days and did well , very tired little lady from travelling around and meeting new aunties and uncles.
today she's at home having an RDO 😆
but hopefully she will be back on Monday , it'll be interesting to see how she copes with the wet weather ,cobbs absolutely detested it and would take one look out the front door and decide it was a Netflix and chill 😎 kind of day
and I have to give massive praise to our beloved old girl Lou lou who is 13 years old, she is absolutely the most perfect role model, she never ever bites, not even when she's got a bone , as you can see in the pics she's teaching tammy that there's no need for aggression, I call that some solid building blocks and hopefully tammy will pay that forward one day

Hi everyone , we'd like to introduce "Tammy"
She will be coming to work with Trav Ox Dutton in the near future, shes only 12 .5 weeks old atm so she'll be at home for a while until all her shots are completed and she's been to basic training She is a very smart little girl , she is a staffy x ... were, thinking lab atm, vets are unseure on the cross.
but she has long legs 🦵
Its been very hard for trav , going around without a sidekick for nearly 2 years , and so now is the time to change that.
Tammy is a rescue puppy from starting over dog rescue , so we know our money has gone to the right place and supporting and making space for the next pup in need for a great life .
Cobba was also a rescue who had so many devoted "aunties " out there he use to visit with trav , so we hope you fall in love with Tammy too ❤️

kind of hoof related , but here's an update on allys progress.
look at the difference in her coat, she's gone from rusty, dusty and very lame, to soft shiny supple and from the report from her owner she's getting about really well and loving life , she still has about a good 50kgs plus to go to get covered, but she's looking absolutely stunning , nothing like a dark chocolate 🍫 bay , the report that trav gives in a few weeks regarding her feet will be very interesting, but so far so good.
this is part of the transition and it's happening on a cellular level , now her gut is engaging well,her feet are being nourished and I've got a feeling she's going to turn around faster than pickle in regards to her feet , they're both challenging horses dealing with major abcess damage.
ally has more options than pickle in regards to things available for trav to work with.
both pickle and ally are on the same nutrition, so this is really interesting to see how different breeds with similar issues turn out overall.
it's literally toe to toe 😆

what were left with, looks rough but trav said they look worse than what they are , which is why I panicked, I think anyone would've tbh , now I need to look at some boots for a draught size hoof and probably some pads.
I cannot wait for the next trim, in all honesty I just want that gone and just to add a bit of irony , he grows more heel than toe even with a good hoof supplement, it is what it is.
