    Lifelong horseman here. I do rescue as well. I trim hooves for our rescue and farm and a few others. Used to do more but spinal issues put a halt to more. I am concerned on a laminitic pony so much sole was removed. I can see where the coffin bone had rotated. I had a pony like this that we ended up using padded shoes to keep them comfortable due to thin soles.

    What I truly appreciate is seeing how you KNOW where to remove all the overgrowth, to find the correct shape for the healthy hoof….and, you are doing this from looking at the sole of the foot, rather from the side or from above. This was interesting, seeing your work on all four hooves.

      @ducdashot2332 Před 2 lety +7

      He most likely does look from the sides and above when first inspecting the animal to get a rough idea of what work needs to be done but since hooves are pretty unique a lot of it is just years of experience and going by feel, the way the tools cut through the horn is often all a skilled farrier needs in order to tell how far they need to go, still it'd be silly not to use every advantage possible when doing that kind of work so even though you can see he's confident with his cuts he does take a step back and check it from different angles just to be 100% sure

    • @TruthArrows
      @TruthArrows Před 2 lety +4

      You do absolutely have to look at all angles. The hoof you trim away is all from the bottom, so that's where most of the work is done and is mostly what you're watching.
      Rounding off the sharp edges into a "mustang roll" in an effort to mimic naturally worn down hooves, is pretty much the only time you don't trim from the bottom.
      Kind of sad really, horses should be moving around enough so that they're hooves are naturally worn down.

    • @alexanderkupke920
      @alexanderkupke920 Před 2 lety +2

      @@TruthArrows rounding off the edges has a other effect besides a more natural look. This way the hoof is much less likely to crack if stepping on a stone or whatever than with a sharp edge.

      @TruthArrows Před 2 lety +1

      @@alexanderkupke920 Absolutely. 🙂 When I said "mimic" I did not mean for aesthetic reasons or looks.
      Trimming a domestic horse's hoof and leaving a sharp angle at the toe especially, can cause tripping, chipping and other hoof problems.
      I meant that when humans round off sharp edges or make a "mustang roll" on domesticated horse hooves, it is an attempt to recreate the natural shape of a truly wild horse's hooves that are naturally worn and shaped by their environment and natural wild activities.

    That's a radical trim for any equine, let alone one that has had a laminitic episode in the past. Looking at the wall and foot angles, it was some while ago and no signs of hoof separation underneath. Great quality of hoof. ASMR or no, was a dour farrier not to talk to the pony.

    Finally a farrier who trims the laminitic hooves really well and also shortens the heels properly. Most shorten though the toe but leave the heels much too long, that is here really well processed. Maybe you could leave a little more sole there because the sole is very thin and the coffin bone shows through...

    This is in no way intended to be a criticism of the farrier--he's doing a great job with what he's got!! The real problem here is the laminitis appears to be in all four feet, each one having a rusty stain in the coffin one area. To the best of my knowledge, there is no way to undo the catastrophic effects of laminitis in the hoof's basic structure. Once those supporting capillary structures are blown out by the effects of endotoxins, the substantial support they provide to maintain hoof structure collapses which is why the coffin bone begins to rotate through the hoof sole. This is a horrible occurrence as it is tremendously painful to the horse/pony. I have been a barn manager in a private show barn with where the owner was trying to save (for 2 yrs) a show hunter that first has grass colic then rapidly developed into full blown laminitis despite all interventions. Ultimately the horse laid down to relieve its pain and could not be brought back standing. X-rays showed full rotation on all four hooves; the owner finally realized that the horse could not be saved and had it euthanized.
    Seeing the animal's classic founder stance in the video shows how bad off this poor horse is; they will stand this way to minimize their pain onto a single platform. When the coffin bone starts rotating through the sole, the abcess that it creates is never-ending. It is bad enough that it happens to one hoof but in all four has no positive outcome. A prime example of this was Barbaro who developed
    laminitis after treatment for his broken leg. The cause of the laminitis presumably the inequal effects of the treatment on his system. Ultimately they chose the humane decision to euthanize him.
    Sorry to go on so but laminitis is a devastating condition for which, in its stage of coffin bone rotation, there as yet there is no fix. Mild founder can be managed with careful treatment of diet and exercise s number of year but it only takes a heartbeat for it to flare up again and go critical.

      They have no nutritional value. Dogs love chewing. That's why they'll chew on hooves. Like bones and other hard chew toys, hooves pose the dual danger of breaking your dog's teeth or splintering, which could lead to puncture injuries of your dog's mouth or digestive tract.

      You see in other videos he does, like whistling or gentle reassurances but in this situation I'd hazard a guess that the other person with him was comforting the horse so that he could concentrate since those hooves were very overgrown. You also see when the horse starts to resist the video cuts, that's likely because they give it a minute or 2 to calm down and make sure it's not getting spooked. Pure guesswork though

      Because horses are very different animals to cows with very different dispositions that are raised and handled in a very different way, and their hoof structure is very different as well. The average horse is not going to be okay with having their hooves trimmed the same way a cow's are and will likely hurt itself or the trimmer.

    Do wild horses have this problem? How do they keep their hoofs trimmed?

    For a laminitic horse why would u take so much sole off? No hate here but i was told by my vet (i have a horse currently in recovery from laminitis) that farrier was not to take off any sole at all unless it was thrushy, Now i do understand every case is different and I totally get this horse was severely over grown but I’m just curious what made u take so much sole off? I’m not a farrier so i just would like to understand ur process on it

    • @ducdashot2332
      @ducdashot2332 Před 2 lety +2

      From what I've read (and I am by far no expert) with overgrown hooves trimming is still very important for laminitic horses and is more on a case by case basis, your vet most likely told you to only have your horse trimmed in minor ways because farriers don't always recognise when a horse is laminitic and can end up treating them like a normal horse which can cause severe swelling making the issues worse. If the farrier is careful, allows for breaks and stops when the horse is too uncomfortable then it should be fine. Usually farriers trim to an aesthetic that is more appealing but with laminitic horses that shouldn't be the case, due to their unique situation it should just be enough to reduce discomfort and realign the pedal bone. If your vet has seen to your horse then they may have determined that the pedal bone is rotated in such a way that a full trim would exacerbate the issue and so has advised you to keep trims to a minimum. Farriers sadly can't x-ray the hoof so can only go by experience and general feel to try and help realign that pedal bone. Hope that helps.

    • @samanthasimone3059
      @samanthasimone3059 Před 2 lety +1

      I think it depends on what kind of 'work' the horse does. If the horse is carrying people/carting things around then they wear horseshoes as support. If it isn't a 'working' horse then they don't need the shoes.

    Is there a physical reason that farriers do not use a device like cow trimmers do?

    • @creepyjoe7621
      @creepyjoe7621 Před 2 lety +1

      It’s because horses have 100% bone so they cant feel anything but sadly because cows are in the ruminants family they get more puss in there hoof more often and there’s not as much bone so I guess it kinda hurts for the cows but it also has a huge relief off the cows foot also cows there legs don’t bend like horses if you tried to put a cows leg up without a Machine they would fall over

    • @ducdashot2332
      @ducdashot2332 Před 2 lety +4

      Different leg structure and even lower back structure, a horse can put double weight on 1 hoof for an hour and cause little to no damage to the hoof whereas a cow would suffer from ulcers, cracking, sole delamination, etc. cows are also much heavier and horses skeletal structures are designed for running, jumping and various other strenuous activities. Where a cow would fall over a horse can comfortably stand upright for long periods of time. It's purely due to evolutionary differences, horses developed much more sturdy hooves and legs in order to be able to run long distances and stand for days at a time, cows developed features that are more suitable for grazing and herd survival. It's for the same reason why you see large herds of 50+ cattle in the wild but horses tend to stay in smaller groups of 5 to 20 ish, which is why they developed more stable running capabilities for survival.
