🐴 LONG TOES vs CHOPPING OFF THE TOES (Horses & their Hooves!)
🥵HOT TOPIC ALERT 👉Here comes a video all about the horse’s TOE!
Here is another #ItsNotRocketScience lesson with Lindsay Setchell on why it is important to leave the toe as opposed to removing the toe (chopping the toe).
Buckle up - grab a cuppa - this is going to be a long one - very fitting for the long toe 😉

UNDERRUN HEELS on a HORSE'S HOOF? (Do you know what that is? 🤔)
zhlédnutí 1,2KPřed 6 měsíci
Most owners and professionals we speak to are not sure what an underrun heel really is! They confuse an underrun heel with a low heel, and try to correct that by allowing the heel to grow longer. And that’s a BIG problem for the horse. In this lesson Lindsay Setchell discusses underrun heels, long toes, the incredible papillae (that no-one ever talks about) and why chopping off the toe interrup...

Why is HOOF CARE CONFUSING? (leaving toes or chopping off toes?)

In this #itsnotrocketscience lesson instructor Lindsay Setchell discuss the two different views of hoof care whilst rehabbing horses: 1. The 'leave the toe' method (HM) 2. The 'chop the toe off' method (Old school) The world of hoof care is moving fast latterly with research finally now being done on barefoot horses, although far from even close to being enough... but it's a start.

In this next series of lessons, Lindsay Setchell talks about WINTER LAMINITIS and the reasons that some equines seem to go downhill in the winter time. This is confusing for the owner because the grass doesn't appear to be growing and the temperature is colder... but the reality is that there are several problems facing the chronic laminitic equine and these Lindsay will discuss over the next f...
Why is the pedal bone (P3) being lost to osteonecrosis? (Laminitis)
zhlédnutí 222Před 7 měsíci
Another lecture by Lindsay Setchell about P3 (pedal bone) in the foot of the equine. Equines throughout the world are notoriously treated incorrectly when it comes to hoof care, but especially during laminitis. The hoof capsule begins to distort because of the separation that has been happening to the laminae connecting P3 to the wall. The belief is that P3 then loses its attachment and begins ...

Can equines recover from sole penetration of P3? Lindsay Setchell discusses that case of a horse called Dolly who was nearly put to sleep because of misinformation about rotation and laminitis. Dolly survives - but her story is a tough one, and will likely ruffle many feathers. It's time owners were aware of what is going on out there. HMIS. p.s.

Myth busting continued: Laminitis DOES NOT = rotation
zhlédnutí 124Před 7 měsíci
Myth busting continued: Laminitis DOES NOT = rotation In this video, Lindsay Setchell explores rotation of P3 (pedal/coffin bone) in the equine foot. Explaining further why rotation is not synonymous with laminitis and why it should never be a reason to put a horse to sleep (bar any osteonecrosis).

Debunking the HUGE myth of the DDFT rotating the pedal bone (P3)
zhlédnutí 250Před 7 měsíci
In this video lesson, Lindsay Setchell, talks about another well held myth in the equine world. It is believed that when an equine is in an acute attack of laminitis, and the laminae are separating, then it’s a ‘dangerous time’ for the equine because it could end up with a rotated pedal bone. Because of this incorrect belief, horses are pts, or put on solitary box rest for months in case P3 rot...

3 Day Horse & Hoof Care Workshops (maintain your horse's hooves)
So seems to me after watching this after having my first experience with winter laminitis and after having X-rays showing no rotation … that because my horse doesn’t have good hoof conformation (flat footed) need to #1 keep my flat footed horse trim at optimal #2 keep my horses body warm during cool temps, #3 boot my horse during critical times #3 monitor his diet as if metabolic #4 be vigilant to any gait changes and address them by understanding the cause.
❤❤❤
The antelope looks like a Springbok to me.
Where do I find the Guides?
I was a toe chopper too 🤦🏼♀️ not proud but it is pushed by vets and most farriers and well known farriers. Ugh! so glad I met you. I have changed my views and want to do better for my horses.
Thank you 🙏 you’re amazing
Thank you!!!!!
In a foot where the sole is eneven in the heels, do you still trim to the HSP in both heels? It would create an unnevenness, wouldn't it?
Michigan USA 😂 Great information 👍
We trust the ferriers!
Please, though, realize not all your viewers believe in evolution or mother nature. Some, like me, believe in God and what the Bible says about creation not Darwin, thanks.
Agree
My horse had founder for over 6 years and one thing I noticed is the farrier shaving off his toe at every trim. He shaved it so much you could see the laminae showing and both he and the vet said this had to be done to release pressure from the front. When I tried to reverse this it was too late and he eventually had to be put down. I'm glad to have found your videos to help me, not the farrier, trim my 2 other horses better, thank you.
Does that mean I never cut the toe? My horse has laminitis and had a Strasser-trim which I deeply regret to be honest but I was told it would be necessary...! Then she did not have a trim for a longer period of time and the toe grew very long. It was shortened now but not more than the white line suggested. She seems to walk better now. Looking forward for your comment on that. Thank you and it is a great job you are doing informing the horse-world of so may misconceptions. Thank you!
Excellent thank you
Question, if you do all the things gs mentioned and still have stretching and bruising can it be mechanical i.e hoof not being balanced properly? 🤔
Excellent Webinar! ❤
This was the best webinar I think I’ve ever watched!!! 🤩 Thank you for supporting the horse owner..
Thanks for sharing 😊
Fla❤ yall
❤
Thank you for this
First time i really understood Navicular - very well explained - as all your videos, many thanks for sharing
So interesting
My horse has very sore soles and swelling in the shoulder area. I bought the Cavallo hoof boots and tried numerous supplements to no avail. To my knowledge, there is no floundering but that does stand in a slight laminitis stance at times. Chewing up the Cavallo hoof boots. The front hooves are growing only slightly. Needs help as to what treatment can be beneficial 😢.
Horses in north America extinct because of environmental shifts and possibly human over-hunting.
Hiya. Thanks for your interesting webinar. Your education and presentation are intriguing and interesting. Am in the beginning of my hoof-education and trying to learn as much as I can from various scholars around the world. Hope it's OK to ask who YOUR hoof-inspiring human beings are ( think we all have a few😊). Thank you so very much for your consideration and certainly for sharing your knowledge.
Another great one, thanks! Do you have a video or blog about more detail on the sole? Finding the hard sole plane, the transition between dead and live sole, when to take and when to leave, calluses, false soles, bruises, etc? I'm having a hard time finding info about this in general.
Videos like this where you can see all the nitty gritty details during lecture are so helpful and important, I hope you keep these up! Thank you!
Your use of “evolution” and “design” interchangeably shows that you don’t understand either term. Horses and humans evolved over billions (not millions) of years from a common ancestor. Nobody designed either species. Unfortunately, artificial selection at the hands of humans gave my thoroughbred and my anglo-arab hooves that required shoes. I now ride a mustang, and he will probably always be barefoot. In the interest of being natural, he rarely wears a saddle, never uses a bit, and often goes without reins.
Great video, explanation and guidance
What an excellent, clear and informative video. The desperate toe trimming and leaving heels high on laminitics has never made sense to me - the classic 'laminitic stance' tells us all we need to know about where the pain is. X-rays together with easily seen stretched damaged inflammed laminae tell all who stop and think, that it's not P3 that moves but the wall that's growing abnormally. Presumably, the 'ski tip' on P3 grows in an effort to have more bone in position for supporting weight. I so so hope some vets and farriers and their teachers at the training institutions see this video. 🙂
Can’t wait for the next webinar, I’ve watched all the 9nes I can find several times each! 😂
Love this, makes so much sense!
would love a video on your thoughts on the possible prevention of the onset of ppid in horses, most of the information I find relates to the treatment, not on the possible prevention
Hi Paco, the best prevention is quite simple - a more natural lifestyle of the horse. A species-specific diet and management and hoof care, reduces stress on their systems and sets the horse up for a more healthy life of longevity. :)
Hi, great track, nice to see people’s set ups, did you cover the soil with a membrane or scrape the top soil away, before putting stone and sand on top?
hi, no i didnt scrape anything away, i laid the stone and sand straight on top of the ground with no membrane, I wanted to raise the track above the ground level as much as i could to help it stay dry.
Thank you sooòo much understand navicular much more now❤x
.. and it looks to me that the whole frog is down to the hsp.. am i wrong?
Another question: in the natural hoof showed at 1:23:21 the tip of the frog is very low. it is also down to the hard sole plane? Yet you told me with me horse to not touch the frog. how or why is this natural tip of the frog so low?
if the papillare need the feedback from the ground, why is it that you put something like the mustang roll on the horses foot? does not the outer hoofwall need to give this feedback too?
Good webinar!
Could not find the link you reference... please share link.
Thanks for sharing. Great to see as just struggling with mud on my track and thinking about surfaces… The sand look good. What type/grade of sandstone and sand did you use and how deep? Thanks
the sandstone is one that comes from this area, it is called carrstone and i used 2" mainly but also used 4" in some areas. the sand is called "as dug" so it is pre graded.
Its such a brilliant 3 day workshop, it blows your mind with info and you just have to go back, plus you're with like minded people who are all there for the welfare, happiness and health of their horses xx
Yes, I'm on number 4 xx

Another fantastic, informative show from HMI school, really loved the bit on feeding older horses and trying to make them look younger, it hit home for me as I have an older pony I've been worried about but this made me see that shes doing ok, just getting older. Thank you so much xx
such a beautiful track, your horses are so happy and have benefited enormously from track life, they have a wonderful home and are free to wander where they like, thanks for sharing
