Dealing with seedy toe
Vložit
- čas přidán 22. 09. 2016
- This horse has a nasty case of seedy toe which is a anaerobic bacterial infection that enters the hoof wall/laminae junction via cracks, injuries or separation of the hoof wall, and then propagates very quickly in the non-oxygenated environment.
Here I'm removing the necrotic material and opening up the cavities to try and stop it spreading.

Im getting addicted to watching horse being shoed
I have no interest in horses or anything farm related and have no idea why this showed up in my recommended. But... I watched the whole video, it was well narrated, the shots were interesting, you seem very experienced, I even googled a few pages to understand what seedy toe is. In short, I'm still not interested in horses but your videos are extremely well put together if they can hold someone like myself's attention.
thanks!

Yeah, this was basically my situation. Showed up in related videos, and I just clicked it out of curiosity. Very well done and interesting video.
Same, lol.
Sada Asda no need for you old woman!
I don't even own or ride a horse but these vids are really fascinating
@Mel Hawk what?
Why is this the 3rd horse shoeing video I've watched in a row? Late night CZcams binge has reached new levels
im here again, 5am this time.
Mi Sa sameeeeeee
I know nothing about horses and don’t even have a pet but this was recommended and now I’m into it. I’m glad the problems and how to solve them are explained for people like me.
As someone who knows nothing about farrier work, it seems like the forging is the least of it and learning all about the foot and its diseases is the hard part. You are sort of a horse podiatrist.
Frank B Also kinda like a manicurist. ☺ That makes me wonder if anyone has ever painted their horse's hooves... lol
We do! Haha, there's this product called Twinkle Toes and it's essentially nail polish for their feet.
Late comment but thank you for taking careful care of that horse. As a father of a special needs child, it means so much to us parents when someone recognizes the importance of some things. It is clear to me that not only are you caring for that horse, you are making sure that horse can spend as much time with that child.
Sir it is pleasure to watch you doing this,may God give you good health so you can do this for a many more years to come.my grandfather was a blacksmith. unfortunately this is a trade that is slowly dying of and fading.
look at all the horse experts
Benjamin oh no no
What a lovely relaxed patient she was.
Watching a farrier work is very relaxing. Makes me wish I went into horse medicine sometimes.
seemed like such a good natured,well mannered animal.hope she's now healthy
People like pimple popping video and I think these videos
Gus Adams me to they're so satisfying
Gus Adams i dont get why people like watching pimple popping videos its so fucking disgusting
Zexir official I'm one of those people that like watching those types of video n I can't explain why I like them
michel rodriguez same
My husband likes those videos... He also will sometimes caress my face or back, but he's really just secretly feeling for a zit to pop... lol. I will not let him do that anymore bc everytime he is able to, I break out even worse.
Yep YT, the first thing to do before an exam is to watch man shoeing a horse for 14 minutes..

My family comes from old time farming and vets were a luxury. When our horses came down with those cracks we used copper-sulfate and packed the crack & holes after we cleaned it THROUGHLY. Soak the hoof first after cleaning and the pack with crystal copper-sulfate and cotton balls to keep the crystals in place. Clean & soak every other day until crack grows out. This works amazingly!
we did similar when i was a boy. The trouble is getting the owners to do it , they want a one time fix!
Why are you people still droning on with this? I know the treatments, it’s the owner’s that don’t put in the time or effort! Stop pestering me!
How can I when no one is interested in doing it? You just don’t listen do you!
Hi Kathy, soak the hoof in what first? I'm going to try this.
Even though I don't have a horse, i find this video interesting and very cool! Very informative!
You do a very neat job, wish our farriers would take as much care as you do! A horse nutritionist once told me that seedy toe can sometimes be caused, or at least exacerbated, by too much sugar not being balanced out by other vitamins or minerals, especially in horses who are prone to founder. No idea if it's true or not, just putting it out there. If the cause is fungal I guess too much sugar could make the environment favourable for fungus to grow. If the young owner is anything like my autistic son, he'll sneak down to the paddock and load the horse up with way too many sugar cubes!
That's a good call I think, this lad is much the same and she has foundered in the past!
dyingsun23 I have no idea about horses, just love skilled workers, but if sugar is an issue, and you said in the vid that summer causes a different client's horse to suffer, is there an orchard or berry bush near the paddock, the horses might be snacking on natural sugar sources around the area. just a thought.
3rd shoe horsing man video now. Pleese I want to got to bed,,,,
*Farrier :)
1:00 you are brave to leave your iPad right next to a horses hoof
Maggie E a horse standing on three legs isn't going to be moving very much. But I wouldn't be putting it there just in case.
I was thinking the same thing.
Haha horses are so funny. Like a giant dogger. I wonder what they think when people do this like " o helo gary u would like my foot yes? Oo yes very nice strange friend fix my feet! "
Sean Gall you should check out some moose videos - definitely would keep you happy 😊
Horses gettting their nails done
Got a bit scared when I saw that Ipad terribly close to the horse hooves!
George Stevens he knows what he is doing.
Great work, Sir! At least you show a whole video showing what you are doing....For the most part on CZcams the videos about taking care of Horse hoofs are horrendous and incredibly short. Half a minute tops 2 minutes are the durations of the videos. But most farriers didn’t have any Subscribers, that explains why! 🤔Thank you for sharing your great job with the horses. I subscribed to your channel immediately! May God Bless you and the animals....🙏🏼🍀🐴Best wishes from Canada and keep doing what you are doing(nice camerawork as well...)❤️👋🏼🇨🇦
god i love watching you do this
It is really a pleasure to see you working! So professional and so calm. The appearance you have on the horses is also fantastic to see and experience. Many farriers can take an example !! :)
You sure smoothed that foot up nice. I hope she get's better soon. With your help i have no doubt she's getting the best of care. Thank you for sharing your work.
What a lovely chap! I unintentionally watch the whole video and I learned things! Keep up the amazing work dude!!
all the ground pressure on that excessive wall is likely what caused the white line stretching that opened it up to the infection getting in. Ive been using a different approch instead of severe rececting. Been doing frequent trims 4 weeks in between touching up the wall with a handheld surform shaver once a week, keeping the walls trimmed back with lots of break over around it to minimise any leverages, and using a product called sav-a -hoof (for thrush and whiteline disease) to heal it from the inside out and get it to grow out. I'm seeing great results. A horse with severe problems was almost sent to slaughter because of chronic lameness is now sound and showing great wall integity as the hoof is growing down. To me this is a more effective solution because if the horse has this much whiteline disease at the toe, chances are it's in the quarters too, it looks like it might be in the outside quarter flare shown. Some feet get so bad you'd have to take off so much wall it would compromise the integrity of the hoof capsule too much.
Is it only me who thinks it’s satisfying ?
Give you that feeling that you need to itch under the skin for me.
Love the commentary! Very interesting. I like to see a professional at work.
i replayed it and watch it upside down, perfect!
id love to be a farrier ! you are obviously good at your job and you care a lot about your clients :)
she seems so gentle like shes 100% ok with you handleing her its very sweet
I have never owned horses nor have I ever cared for a horse but I love watching this! Why am I so weird.
If you're weird, so am I. My husband is a farrier and I've seen him do this thousands of times, I never get bored of watching.
I’ve seen horse shoeing from all over the world and you are the best of them all, just love how you do your job well done, Keep up the good work,
Poor girl, seedy toe has turned her hooves into cloven ones!
Jesus I think his forearms are bigger than my biceps
afrochickenboy his forearms are as big as my calfs
afrochickenboy boy you probably have very small arms to think he's gat big forarms
he has the arms of a Smith.
David Lefort *got
afrochickenboy u need to go to the gym
I enjoy your POV recordings. It's interesting seeing it from the farrier's perspective. Thanks
God Bless you Sir for caring for this horse and keeping her healthy for her special needs friend.
Idk why this is so satisfying
So relaxing watching you fix these issues.
Sorry Gary, One more comment.....I congratulate you for your efforts in keeping this young man and his horse together.
I find these videos very educative.
the word you're looking for is 'educational'
fantastic video once again sah! thanks for sharing your knowledge with all of us :)
Wow thats a lot of hoofwall for 6 weeks!
Idk why but this just satisfies me :C ?
Lovely clear and concise video :-) what a good old girl the mare was too.
If she has just come back from a bout of Laminitis - cushings related at a guess looking at her coat/eyes/weight distribution? - then it is quite possible that she has had some separation of the white line/laminae which has allowed grit to compact and set up the fungal infection... That could be why the client with the horse who gets seedy toe behind every summer has issues too? Worth both of those clients testing for EMS and Cushings.
I do like that you take back the fungal tract to the 'root' as it were. Even though seedy toe is an anaerobic fungus, a lot of farriers will only open up the toe and not follow the tracts back, which I think defeats the object all together!
I'll definitely be watching some more of your video's, thank you for your clarity x
Beautiful work, mate. Awesome you're talking with the VET. Clean and smooth. Keep up.
I'd love to see more of these, truly fascinating! If you deal with them every so often please do film it!!
ok I just watched the Shoeing of Gala and now with that accent I have to sub man
Gary, you are such a lad
Such a patient horse!
This is absolutely fascinating. Keep them videos coming. Instant sub.
very interesting!!! Thanks for recording the video as you work!!! :)!!!
Thank you Gary, very cool!
Your voice is so soothing and makes me feel better
Thanks for mentioning the flares! I was the one who mentioned it previously and while there may be a boatload of info out there, it's nice to have it straight from the horse's mouth. (Oh, that's bad!) If I understood you correctly, a good farriers' regime should, over time, get the animal back on solid footing. Thanks!
Flaring due to the laminitis, as is the rapid growth. I'd dispute the laminitis not being related to diet too as you said there's plenty of grass (likely chronic, sub-clinical). Limit the grass, off hard feed, exercise... and balance the feet better. Treating the symptom well there but eliminating the causes is the key! I say this with respect. Nicely cleaned up :)
Why are you telling me? It’s not my horse and the owners do what they want whatever I say!
@@garyhuston Of course, owners are almost always the hardest part of hoof-care. I'm commenting for several reasons, the primary one being the exchange of helpful information - which might help owners be more proactive in preventing such issues rather than leave it to us to fix. You do also say "I'm not sure why..." several times in the video and, as I say, I comment with all due respect.
You make it look easy!!
Why is this so satisfying to watch
Nice calm horse, my ex missus first horse was like this, except when he came across plastic bags blowing across the lane or in a bsuh then he would go mental. That's partially why she stopped hacking him on the roads due to all the litter being chucked in the countryside!
Thank you GaryThat was more than I have removed but the vet and I have watched this and will consider it next seedy toe and you can bet I will have another one. Respectfully,Bill
Great and precise work on her hoofs....you really do a great job..
This brings back memories watching the local farrier working on our horses, and me asking questions as a ten year old.... "What are you doing to my horse.... Why? Does it hurt them..." So on and so on!!
it looks like it hurts but feels good at the same time
Tbh I have no idea why I am watching this but its oddly satisfying
Great video. Thank you.
Why is this so satisfying to me?.,.
You sound like a teacher at my school ,very educational !
I am tired and I thought the title was "dealing with Seedy JOE" as in a misbehaving horse!! I was so confused to see this lovely, patient horse
An old Stockmans trick. Shred up some hessian twine mix with thick Stockholm tar and pack into the holes with forceps. Repeat daily and keep the horse on dry land or a dry stable. Problem solved
This looks like such a satisfying job.
Great skill and knowledge,Sir...
What a sweet horse, so calm.
This is fascinating. I know very little about horses. I'm surprised that it just stands there very calmly while you work.
great voice-over, very informative :)
Well done!✨😁👍truly
What a sweet horse my goodness
great job brother, we appreciate it
Idk why this is so appealing to watch
Is it weird to not be into horses or farrier work at all but also be completely interested in this video start to finish?
I would recommend a bar shoe or and pour in pads for coffin bone support since you just took all that hoof wall off.. you are already dealing with a laminitis problem you don't want the coffin bone to move anymore.
She’s a sweetheart
I can imagine this guy doing tree huggers while working out, and while everyone is gone and done, he's still there not even breaking a sweat
Very good video nicely done.
really long toed horses seem to be prone to this due to pressure on toe which starts crack and then muck and manure get up in there which will prevent it from growing out
I too am concerned about that iPad!
You're a brave man, leaving your Ipad out near her feet like that!
LOL! If I thought for one minute she would move about it wouldn't have been there!
Living in California ive never heard a farrier say "unfortunately we are working in the shade today"
hehe she has a unicorn hoof now!
SO SATISFIYiNG!
Ugh, my horse was just diagnosed with this. My farrier can't understand it either as my horses get routine farrier care and they live in a dry environment. Good vid. Thanks for posting.
I don't know how i got here, but thanks for shearing.
good job gary ^^
It's 2am and i don't know why im watching this
Lame Ape same. i know nothing about horses yet here I am watching so many horse videos... always at like 2 or 3 am haha
It's satisfying btw
Hah its 4:30 am for me *dabs*
A horse is essentially standing on 4 fingers.
So interesting. My father did this his whole life up until I was born and I've never learned. Great to learn at least the basics of how to clean a horse hoof.
I have an exam the day after tomorrow about horse foot pathology + the process of applying horseshoes & their importance. Your videos explain a lot of stuff and I actually can see the process, not just read about it and try to imagine. Thank you, your videos are very educative :)
A mixture of natural pine sap + turpine and fine saw dust applied very warm is like a natural epoxy resin which kills bacteria .
I get dizzy from watching this upside down
