LONG HOOVES on ARABIAN STUD Horse Restoration
Apr 25, 2024Well, today we have an Arabian
horse
, he is quitelong
and unkempt and we just wanted to give you an idea of how we approach these situations, so the first thing I look at is this top inch or two, beyond the crown. band and that gives me an idea of what the angle of my coffin bone is. I'm imagining my coffin bone is in there, something like this, so what this tells me is that I can safely cut all of this out to start. I'm going to do this with the reciprocating saw, these feet are hard and it would take along
time to do this with the clamp or scraper, we'll cut this toe off, lower the heels and get this hoof looking as normal as possible and the closer we get to normal, the closer it is to anatomical correction, so all this red is just red paint from the blade, but we're not even close to the sensitive tissue, so we remove these heels now that we have quite a bit of growth on the heel.I'd like to take you down as much as I can today and that will give this
horse
a flat surface to stand on you so ah two so I'll do cutting this flare will just give you an advantage. on your asp hey okay yeah we're getting there okay one thing people don't understand is that on these horses that have longhooves
you have to lower their heels all the way down to give them a flat surface to stand on. all the growth of the heel is often seen in the comments, they think that we should only remove the toe, we have to lower the heel or else they will not have a flat surface to stand on and that will not give them a good base to build a new foot oh youIf you have any copyright issue, please Contact
