If youve ever done a dissection of a 'retracted sole' you can see how little depth of sole you have to play with. Millimetres under p3.

I have never seen a farrier/barefoot-trimmer so patient, with such a kindness, patience, good communication with the horse!

Thank you - very good video! Good explanation, good and clear filming and very good treatment of the horse! Best regards from Norway.

thanks for that - that does make me laugh at the end - how the camera sadly walks back up the path!!

So gentle.

Excellent information! Thanks!

Good information! I thought my Percheron had some hard frogs! Appreciate your work on these videos!

A gentle hand. The horse walked on queu.

Curious why not wear a glove on left hand? I see cuts to your hand in your other videos as well. Great work and patient horse in windy conditions.

Aprendista enseńando aprendices , para comensar no se hace a campo libre ,haci es como herradores mueren o salen con piernas y costillas quebradas

If you are not a farrier you don't have to know, I draw the imaginary line and do the job usually every 8 weeks

How much tenderness, respect and love I saw. Quanta tenerezza, rispetto e amore ho visto.

From watching too many corrections to horses feet, I wonder if this is a kind of self regulated profession? Buy the equipment and you are in business? Please say NO.

very bad stuff

Lovely clean well maintained feet

This is very helpful! I have a very similar mare, also a Rocky. I’m curious if this guy twists in the rear. I’ve gotten improvements but this might help me get the rest of the way. My girl really wears laterally on the rears.

Looks good! Bring that point of contact back. Underrun heels sneak up on ya. Thanks for Video

Terrific trim. You are my favorite trimmer on TH-cam👍

Ohhh🥹❤️What a change! And relife..❤

thank you so much for uploading this video, very very helpful. And what a good horse, keeping his foot up for you to draw on it 🙂

thank you for posting this. I don't think it is legal in the Uk to do this if you are not a farrier, which is a shame.

Loved the ending! What a sweet boy and a fast lil pony! Thanks for sharing 😊

I wish you’d start making videos again! You are helping me sooooo much!

@david Landerville you have had this horse since Dantes youth. Please, why isn't the frog wide and full? I am wanting to learn and understand. No offense intended. Just a simple query. Ty! 👍👍👍

Whoa!! The change in hoof landing and comfort in striding was incredibly improved! Super impressed! 🎉

Words can not express how much I love your soul. You stay wild free and horse ❤

Why do you leave the heels and bars that high? You could trim it more so it would be more comfortable.

So envious of where you get to ride. I have been lucky to have ridden in AZ a couple times. Still dreaming of getting back there.

It's so nice to see someone trim with the "Goldilocks" level of heels. What do I mean by that? I mean... they're just right. I had one farrier who left my horse with waaaaay too much heel, to her detriment, and one who trimmed off so much that she left her standing on her frogs and just about nothing else. You handle heels so beautifully!

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and your great way to listen to the horses.

I think it was blindfold that was affecting it.

Just now seeing this. Such a trusting blind guy. Thank you for sharing.🐴

I absolutely love your style of trimming, especially the back of the heels and back of the frog. The whole trim mimics photos I’ve seen of how a wild desert horse wears their feet.

Looks like he needs shoes to me, and looks like he is being used a lot. He is like a hoover, hoovering all they hay up behind you. 😅

merci beaucoup de partager votre savoir , vous avez changer ma vision du parage ....

I must be honest. I saw a lame horse after this trim, we all did.

The title mentions splay footed, but you didn't talk about it. Does Pony have splayed hoves and it's been corrected? He doesn't appear splayed (or as splayed as I have on my pony). I am just trying to learn about how to help correct or improve.

I love the zoomies at the end! I’m rewatching all these videos and hungrily learning more. I only trim my two but am fascinated by hooves.

It’s treasure map leading to an optimal barefoot trim.

The demo on the model hoof was amazing. And Pony’s hooves are about perfect. Her frog looks like a 💜

A master trimmer. Those hooves looking that good post founder, wow.

Are her soles red from the previous farrier trimming them too thin, or did she have laminitis I wonder.

I’m learning a lot about how to do heels from these videos. 🙏🏼

Is he blind?

Well that is a reaction of a horse. Such nice work But I wonder: why didn't you trim the bar's ? They seem to be very high

Wish you were my neighbor!! I have a qh gelding that could be this guys twin. He’s been my buddy for 20 yrs or so. He has this personality and tiny little ears but a better tail😂

Why did you take the heals down and not trim the toe? Will that cause an under run hoof?

Why did the heels and bars need to be trimmed? thanks

I don't know. I've been successfully trimming my own horses for more than 15 years. Leaning how took a lot of dedication and effort, but at least I understood what I was doing. This just really seems to make things a lot harder than they need to be.

Please work with the horse
