Another before and after on this new horse in a clients barn. His previous situation he was in did not maintain his feet on schedule so his current trainer brought him to me.

He will be kept on a short cycle and I will continue to keep working on his angles and getting his hoof capsule back underneath his limb one reset at a time. He stood much more comfortably after this set of shoes 🥰

When talking about corrective shoeing it’s a slow process. This was my third shoeing on this client. He came with what we suspected was navicular changes and negative palmar angles. He also had significant fluid retention around both front suspensory ligaments.

I started with a good trim and a 2° wedge pad with frog support for 2 appointments. After some new X-rays it showed we needed to adjust the trim some more and add more wedge.

Getting this horses feet rehabbed will be a process. He has significantly improved in his movement already in 3 shoeings.

The constant low temps, ice and snow have made it very difficult to get to all of my outside customers without barns or heated areas Please bear with me as I try to reschedule everyone and not overload myself with work. Stay warm everyone!

I will be taking precautions for all upcoming appointments regarding the EHV outbreak.

I will be spraying and disinfecting my tools/truck between each barn, changing clothes between each barn, and washing hands/face.

PLEASE notify me BEFORE I come to your facility if you have any horses showing symptoms, fever, lethargic, neurological. The feet can wait. I do not want to risk carrying anything from one barn to another.

Thank you for understanding and be safe!

Another rocket donkey fixed up! This mares owner had been trying to advocate for her horse to the previous farrier that they were leaving too much foot at the resets. This horse was done less than 3 weeks ago… The mare was so sore in her suspensory ligaments in both front legs from long toes and forward run heels the owner couldn’t even exercise her. As soon as I got both from feet done she quit dancing around and took a deep breath and hung her head and relaxed. We will have some work to do to rehab the feet back to “normal” but thankfully this owner is willing to do whatever we need to, to get her girl feeling her best again.

As farriers our job isn’t just to do the bare minimum and blow through to make some cash. When I work on horses it’s to better the foot and the horses comfort. I don’t care if it takes an extra 30 minutes for an older horse or I need to put a new set of shoes on each time because the horses needs have changed. Just care and take your time. 😁
