    This is very interesting. Your personal photos are a real treasure 👍 ! I have never been personally confronted with real hoove problems so to me some of the pictures you showed looked quite scary. It's a relief to see how your knowledge and trim skills can help those horses to get back healthy feet ! Lena's hooves for example looked horrible but today she's got the prettiest feet 👏

      Thanks! Yes, Lena went from the "dinner plate" variety to nicely shaped healthy feet and haven't gone backwards since.

    Very clear and fascinating. I wondered about colours of hoof. Are dark hooves stronger? And are light feet more likely to get sensitive? I do like to see your clean trimming and well shaped feet. M😊akes me smile.

    • @StableHorseTraining
      @StableHorseTraining  Před 2 lety +2

      I haven't seen any evidence pointing to that non pigmented hooves are weaker nor have I personally experienced it. Some believe it though.

    • @guitarplayincowboy
      @guitarplayincowboy Před 2 lety

      It's an old wives tale. The pigment makes zero difference in the structure integrity or quality of hoof material. It's just what it is.... pigment. The reason for the wives tale is that the redness from bruising will be apparent on white hoof and not noticeable on darker hooves. I been a natural barefoot trimmer for 17 years professionally and that has been my experience.

    Hello! Your videos are so great, thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge.
    Just a question about thrush, so on the collateral grooves, even if it’s black in there that is not thrush? It’s been raining and my horses hooves are stinky so I clean them out and spray a ton of apple cider vinegar in there for the thrush

    • @StableHorseTraining
      @StableHorseTraining  Před rokem +1

      Thrush is rarely, if ever, solved with a topical solution. If your horse's feet are black and stinky, they're likely rotten from the inside out and you're seeing the months of that finally making it to the surface. I would imagine the feet are in poor condition (which is the reason "thrush" starts) and need to be trimmed properly and timely.

    I live in Amarillo Texas and we are super dry and I had my shoes removed and trim, now he is very sore, what should I do?

    • @StableHorseTraining
      @StableHorseTraining  Před rokem

      Find out the reason he is sore. If I were to guess, your farrier sucks and trimmed too short so you'd call them back to put shoes back on. OR that person took such bad care of your horse's feet either via bad trimming or encouraging you to leave the trims 6 to 8 weeks apart too, where so much goes wrong with the feet that it takes a long time to rehab them.

    My horse seems to be oozing thrush from the inside of his hoof. How do you treat thrush from the inside of the only hole is in the he sole not the central sulcus of frog?

    • @StableHorseTraining
      @StableHorseTraining  Před 2 lety +1

      That's a VERY serious issue, you should have a vet come out. It's not thrush, your horse has a deep infection of the sole corium and needs help.

  • @kkdoc7864
    @kkdoc7864 Před 2 lety +2

    Is thrush caused by a fungus or a yeast? Like in humans where Candida Albicans is the problem I wonder? It thrives in damp dark places and when normal bacterial flora are killed off for any reason. I just wondered if there was any correlation.

    • @StableHorseTraining
      @StableHorseTraining  Před 2 lety +1

      I think that without a test of what is wrong in there, it's hard to say. Essentially we are looking at something that eats away at cells and stops healthy growth. Isn't yeast a fungus?

    • @sintara8442
      @sintara8442 Před 2 lety

      Thrush is caused by bacteria. Fungus is also common in horse hoofs, but those usually grow between the hoof wall and the rest of the hoof

    What about pigeon toes hoofs

    • @StableHorseTraining
      @StableHorseTraining  Před 2 lety

      I've never seen a pigeon toed horse that simply isn't just straight out poor trimming practices of unbalanced heels and incorrect trimming for toe length. If you have any pictures for me to review then I can do that.
