Who in the HELL let this horse’s hooves get this bad? Whoever it is doesn’t need to have ANY more animals if they can’t do better than that. God bless you Sir for taking care of this beautiful animal.
People are the same. They neglect themselves with morbid obesity. End up in the hospital. Now 3 people have to assist with toileting. You can shoot a horse. You can't shoot somebodies mom, sister, dad. Toss in a great case of dementia. Oh boy. Compassion. Always. At this point with the horse, you want the owner to make the right call.
@@terrywereb7639 no because the farrier clearly states elsewhere in the comments that this is not a recent rescue and the people who let the horse get this way are his current owners. He does these at a low cost in the hopes that people will bring in the horses more often.
The amount of science and craftsmanship that goes into helping these horses is just astounding. I hope his owner brings him in more regularly so he can get back to a normal life!
Thank You so much for helping this poor horse! An owner does not have to be very smart to know how bad the horse’s hooves are!! People without empathy should not be allowed to own a horse!!!
That poor horse, he must've been in so much pain! his hooves look so much better when you're done, i'm sure he'll feel amazing in comparison once he gets used to them being a proper length again.
The abuse speaks for itself, those hooves made me wince in secondhand pain. Imagine your ankles being permanently twisted and having to walk and run on them.
@@KT-in3wb the time to berate is when they *aren't* finally seeking treatment for the abuse, that just tells them not to ever bother making life better for their animals. I mean hell, for all we know, the owner was elderly and hiding that they couldn't take care of their animals anymore, and the family only just found out and got the farrier asap. 🤷
This is my 4th time watching this video, I can only speak for myself but I like the way you describe the hoof what we’re looking at and then your game plan or goal. No loud music just informative narration and demonstration of the proper technique, thank you again.

I literally can't comprehend watching an animal under my care suffer like this ...ESPECIALLY with horses. Horse "people" almost always line up to help by the dozens whenever I ever come across a horse needing rescue (deal w cats/dogs) so all this owner had to do was care ...even a little bit
@@kmaezz I once rescued a 25 year old pony that was skin and bones. She was at a riding stable and she was kept in with at least 20 other horses in the "cheap" pasture which was mostly dust. She had to fight for her food and didn't win very often because she had bite wounds all over. I had gone with my friend who was looking at some of the riding horses for sale. The manager asked if we would be interested in a "Free Pony". I immediately went home and got my truck and trailer. First thing in the morning I called a vet. She had super bad teeth, a severe case of sand colic with horrible diarrhea. Teeth floated, treated the colic (she pooped nothing but sand for 2 days) special diet of alfalfa pellets and dressed her wounds. She made a full recovery and lived another year, happy and healthy.
PLEASE do a follow up video for this horse, Id give anything to see him moving around more naturally and looking a lot happier than he did. Very good job and thank you for helping him!

As an owner of a hobby farm with only 3 horses, most people don’t realize the expense of horse ownership. Fortunately my wife and I had incomes to support and maintain our small herd. Square bale hay here in Connecticut is $8-10 a bale. We need 400 bales every season. Every 6-8 weeks the farrier comes to trim, reuse the shoes or replace $250.00. The grain, fresh water and treats add up every month. We just put up a new barn 10 years ago. So you see it’s a costly hobby to get into and maintain. Not to mention vet bills twice a year. ($75.00) just to visit your barn before any treatment. You can’t cheap out on your horses. They deserve all the care you can give. I just subscribed. Thanks for the quality and informative videos.

We took over a ranch in 76' and some horses were left there. We took care of one and one was sold, went right to a renderer. So it was killed. Go send money to a rescue that gets those type of abandoned animals. Most of the time it's leave them as is or death for the animal. If someone shows up to take care of them they live.

I love how you were so gentle with this neglected horse. I also love how you didnt backlash the owner for distreating this lovely horse! Respect to you my man
I choose to tell myself that these are the stories of horses owned by someone who died. In the months of hospital stays and funeral arrangements and divvying up property and possessions, the family remembers to feed the horse... but it takes all that time for the non-horse people to look at the poor boy's feet and ask, "are hooves supposed to look like that?" And then it takes them a while to find someone that can help.
@@adde9506Might be a good time to remind folks that if you have pets of any kind, make sure you have arrangements made if something happens to you.. so your loved pets have a home and proper care right away.. ❤
That looked like incredibly hard work! I'm not a farmer, I know nothing about horses, but what u just did for this animal was amazing, brother! Just to take away the pain he was in was worth it. Well done, sir! Well done!
The neglect & condition of this poor fellow made me cry. Thank you for compassionately & skillfully helping him. He must've felt so much better afterwards.
Thank you for posting this. It is very sad to see a horse so neglected. But encouraging to know there are farriers who have the knowledge and experience to address such problems. If only owners took their financial and other responsibilities more seriously.
RESPECT! Hand trimming is no joke. I follow a hoof trimmer for cattle in Scotland and he uses a grinder. Sticking to the old ways where you can feel every cut is an art. Much respect. This is HARD work and takes maximum skill. Bravo. Being a Ferrier is NO JOKE. It takes skill and you really have to be in shape to not only cut the hoofs, but manage a sedated horse when necessary. Horses are heavy, and if you're trying to keep a horse upright under light sedation while manually trying to trim the hoofs, that's strength and skill.
It hurts my heart to see horses or donkeys and mules with horribly neglected feet! But it's always nice to see a capable farrier get them straightened out enough to have a comfortable surface on the bottom of the hooves for the animal to stand and walk on!!! Good job!! 👍👍❤️❤️❤️
I hope that this horse does NOT go back where he came from. This is just heart wrenching. Sir, thank you for what you do! I am sure this is a really, really difficult job to do, and I don’t just mean physically!
Thank you for helping this horse. There are possibly numerous reasons why his owner neglected this animal, but hopefully that will change or he will sell the horse.
As a human being, I thank you for your humanity and the reason you brought a living being back to comfort. Not everything is about money. I thank and congratulate you from another country in the world for this very important example of your behavior.
In six weeks, does he get some custom shoes to help rotate his bone, ligaments, and tendons back into anatomical alignment? It looks like even with the fantastic job you did getting him back on flat feet, things are still pretty out of whack. It's going to take a while for the neglect to grow out either way. I hope the owner keeps with it; I know you will.
@@YAVUZ8847the horse is probably not doing anything that requires it has shoes, and with everything going on with its hind feet it makes me wonder if it may not be possible to safely shoe those at this point.
Great job! People don't realize that horses TEETH NEED to be floated/filed approx once a year, too! MERRY CHRISTMAS 🌟⛪🎄 & A BLESSED & PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR, TOO! 🎇🎆🎇🐎👍
You are brilliant, well done. Thankyou for helping this sweetheart of a horse. THE OWNER SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED ANYWHERE NEAR ANIMALS AT ALL FOR LIFE ! WHAT A CRUEL PERSON. Thank goodness for people like you. Alovely kind compassionate man and brilliant farrier . Hope the horse has a comfortable good life now xx
You obviously know nothing about situations like this. The most common I remember was elderly people that couldn't get to animals because of age or illness and didn't have the money to get them fixed afterwards. The usual option was to just have a neighbor dig a hole with a tractor and put them down. Or they could be sold to a renderer at a stock yard. So a lifetime of raising animals and an elderly person getting dementia and you scream ignorant insults at them.
What's amazing to me is that those feet were still reasonably ok under all that overgrowth. Hopefully they have been fully restored by now and the back ones return to correct positions, please God. Great job!!❤❤❤
Poor thing. I wish somebody loved him. This is probably the closest he’s ever gotten to anybody caring. He’s so patient, he knows he’s being helped finally.
Absolutely marvellous what you are doing for that 🐎 horse!!!, I can't even begin to imagine the discomfort and pain 💔 he must have been enduring😢!!!, The world would be a much better place if there were more act's of kindness ✨️ like what your doing for that poor unfortunate creature!!!, God!, 🙌 Bless You!!!, And keep up the good work!!!.❤😊

This is heart breaking to watch the condition this poor horse was in and can't believe the amount of pain you figure 1,000 #s of weight of pressure on those feet before trimmed and corrected the best it can be for now Thank you for the video and giving him a bath brushing out his mane and tail the most attention this horse has gotten in awhile attention and love he needs to have! Great job on feet and care he got thank you for what you do
Thank you for helping this poor horse. If people can’t afford to provide proper care of animals then they should rehome them. It is not fair to the animals.
Thanks for helping him....he looks like a good boy who deserves a better home.....😊 A combination of brawn, knowledge & an artistic bent makes for a beautiful job!🎉
Please post when you get back to this horse! You did remarkable work and I for one would like to see the final result. I’ll subscribe! And thanks for what you do!!!
I bet that horse was sore af for a few days just from the physical shock of such a radical change but I hope with my whole heart he gets better care moving forward. You did a GREAT job!
Happens very often when horses get into a grain bin and overdose. It is called foundering. A foundered horse grows hooves like this quickly and there is not much you can do. Especially when a hoof job like this is temporary and expensive.
That's worth knowing. I didn't know the horse would do that. Could it help if the grain bin would stand on a certain high, so it's impossible to stand in it. They would only have to bring their neck and head into the bin, unless they would or could still overdose ?!??
Wow! That was amazing. You did a great job on all the feet. I'm sure it will take him sometime to adjust to his new feet but I think he'll feel so much better. I hope the owner will continue to bring him to you so he can be trimmed on a regular bases and that will probably improve those back feet a great deal.
That poor dear creature. As a human with severe corns until recently, I could not walk properly, always in pain, could not wear so many types of shoes so I try to imagine how this was for the horse and I can't. Not even close. I can only hope that he is more comfortable now and having some life.
I dated a ferrier. We'd go for drives and if he saw a foundered horse he'd go back to the farm and offer his services for free. Horses Loved him ❤
oih my god did you see the RAW BLOOD on the HORSES HOOF AFTER HE USED A STRAIGHT MACHINE TO SAW IT OFF?
@AJ-iu6nw
Did you not listen to the video? He specifically said it was from the paint on the blade, that it was NOT blood.

You should know when you don't know what you're talking about. A lot of horse people commenting here and they all thank him for his work and keep quite about the owners.
Supirt him and send some cash with the thanks button on his videos.
A lot of these animals it's leave them as is or put them down.
@@sparksmcgee6641your comment makes absolutely no sense. 10/10 for effort though :)
@@elandria Because you don't know what you're talking about.
@@sparksmcgee6641so let me get this straight. Me saying that neglect like this is criminal and that the owners should be prosecuted is me having no idea what I’m talking about. Or that giving your horse regular hoof care can prevent this is also me not knowing what I’m talking about. You are the one with no idea. You need to move along 😂
I love how you were so gentle with this neglected horse. I also love how you didnt backlash the owner for distreating this lovely horse! Respect to you my man
Those look totally horrendous.
How could anyone let a horse get that bad ??
Thankfully you are going to try to help this poor horse.
I choose to tell myself that these are the stories of horses owned by someone who died. In the months of hospital stays and funeral arrangements and divvying up property and possessions, the family remembers to feed the horse... but it takes all that time for the non-horse people to look at the poor boy's feet and ask, "are hooves supposed to look like that?" And then it takes them a while to find someone that can help.
@adde9506 that's usually how it goes in cases this severe
@Ksweetpea I really hope so because that's a sad state to find an animal in.
@@adde9506Might be a good time to remind folks that if you have pets of any kind, make sure you have arrangements made if something happens to you.. so your loved pets have a home and proper care right away.. ❤
It takes at least two years for hooves to overgrown so much, this family must've take care of horse for quite a long time
That looked like incredibly hard work! I'm not a farmer, I know nothing about horses, but what u just did for this animal was amazing, brother! Just to take away the pain he was in was worth it. Well done, sir! Well done!
So glad people like you exist. Your work really makes a difference in these animals lives ❤
The neglect & condition of this poor fellow made me cry. Thank you for compassionately & skillfully helping him. He must've felt so much better afterwards.
I really admire your skill in helping these neglected horses, while the horses are sad to see, watching an expert at work is a treat.
Thank you for posting this. It is very sad to see a horse so neglected. But encouraging to know there are farriers who have the knowledge and experience to address such problems. If only owners took their financial and other responsibilities more seriously.
Thank you for helping this horse, which is a beautiful creature who deserved more than this. ❤
That poor horse, thank you for helping that little fella
RESPECT! Hand trimming is no joke. I follow a hoof trimmer for cattle in Scotland and he uses a grinder. Sticking to the old ways where you can feel every cut is an art. Much respect. This is HARD work and takes maximum skill. Bravo. Being a Ferrier is NO JOKE. It takes skill and you really have to be in shape to not only cut the hoofs, but manage a sedated horse when necessary. Horses are heavy, and if you're trying to keep a horse upright under light sedation while manually trying to trim the hoofs, that's strength and skill.
I love the hoof gp!!
Hoof GP
It hurts my heart to see horses or donkeys and mules with horribly neglected feet! But it's always nice to see a capable farrier get them straightened out enough to have a comfortable surface on the bottom of the hooves for the animal to stand and walk on!!! Good job!! 👍👍❤️❤️❤️
That poor neglected animal :( So glad there's someone like this guy to help and hopefully make their life better.
I hope that this horse does NOT go back where he came from. This is just heart wrenching. Sir, thank you for what you do! I am sure this is a really, really difficult job to do, and I don’t just mean physically!
Thank you for helping this horse. There are possibly numerous reasons why his owner neglected this animal,
but hopefully that will change or he will sell the horse.
There’s no GOOD reason for something like this.
That broke my heart!!!! I’m so glad you could help him. 🥹
You work so hard. That horse is blessed to be in your compassionate care.
As a human being, I thank you for your humanity and the reason you brought a living being back to comfort. Not everything is about money. I thank and congratulate you from another country in the world for this very important example of your behavior.
Thank you for helping this poor horse. Hope his life improves as much as the help you give him with his hooves. You are his blessing. 😇
Thank you so much for helping this horse. I pray they do bring him back in six weeks and continue to give him the care that he needs.
In six weeks, does he get some custom shoes to help rotate his bone, ligaments, and tendons back into anatomical alignment? It looks like even with the fantastic job you did getting him back on flat feet, things are still pretty out of whack. It's going to take a while for the neglect to grow out either way. I hope the owner keeps with it; I know you will.
100% what I was about to ask and say, so @adde9506 well said!
I couldn't understand why the horse wasn't gotten horseshoes
@@YAVUZ8847the horse is probably not doing anything that requires it has shoes, and with everything going on with its hind feet it makes me wonder if it may not be possible to safely shoe those at this point.
@@YAVUZ8847 If the owner couldn't manage a trim every 8 - 10 weeks, they certainly aren't going to do shoes every 6 weeks.
Shoes would get in the way.
Great job!
People don't realize that horses TEETH NEED to be floated/filed approx once a year, too!
MERRY CHRISTMAS 🌟⛪🎄 & A BLESSED & PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR, TOO! 🎇🎆🎇🐎👍
You are brilliant, well done. Thankyou for helping this sweetheart of a horse. THE OWNER SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED ANYWHERE NEAR ANIMALS AT ALL FOR LIFE ! WHAT A CRUEL PERSON.
Thank goodness for people like you. Alovely kind compassionate man and brilliant farrier . Hope the horse has a comfortable good life now xx
You obviously know nothing about situations like this.
The most common I remember was elderly people that couldn't get to animals because of age or illness and didn't have the money to get them fixed afterwards.
The usual option was to just have a neighbor dig a hole with a tractor and put them down.
Or they could be sold to a renderer at a stock yard.
So a lifetime of raising animals and an elderly person getting dementia and you scream ignorant insults at them.
What's amazing to me is that those feet were still reasonably ok under all that overgrowth. Hopefully they have been fully restored by now and the back ones return to correct positions, please God. Great job!!❤❤❤
Those were the most horrific conditions I have ever seen on any horse! The work you have done is absolutely bloody Brill! What talent and compassion.
The owner should go to jail for neglect. Thank you you are a miracle worker. You did an amazing job trimming his hooves.
No matter what has happened to that horse in the past, thank GOD he found his way to you! ❤🐎
That’s a good way to look at it. It’s easy to judge, but braver to move forward like these farriers are doing. Nice to see the horses getting help.
I'm not really a 'Horsey' person although I found this fascinating. Well done that man! It's a work of art.
Poor thing. I wish somebody loved him. This is probably the closest he’s ever gotten to anybody caring. He’s so patient, he knows he’s being helped finally.
Děkuji Vám za vaši krásnou a tvrdou práci, Bůh Vám žehnej a opatruj
I’m always impressed to see you find the correct foot inside all the awful overgrowth.
What a patient, calm horse. Thank you for helping him. I hope he is doing much better now.
Horse was drugged he said.
@@tjn8844 Horse got a nice day at the spa but no aspirin for that hangover! hahahaha!
Hoping this horse gets regular trims and has a good life. Thank you for helping
Absolutely marvellous what you are doing for that 🐎 horse!!!, I can't even begin to imagine the discomfort and pain 💔 he must have been enduring😢!!!, The world would be a much better place if there were more act's of kindness ✨️ like what your doing for that poor unfortunate creature!!!, God!, 🙌 Bless You!!!, And keep up the good work!!!.❤😊
Thank you showing us how to help out the voiceless and they know you're helping them thank you for being there
this poor boy :((( thank you for the work that you do, it gives me so much hope knowing that there are people like you out there with the compassion and dedication needed to care for these animals properly. i'm sure you have touched the souls of every horse you have helped ♥
I really hope that the owner lets you keep helping this beautiful horse.
My blessings to that young man with a good heart and he will go go far in this occupation!!! Best of luck young man God bless you 🙏🙏🙏🙏!!!!
Words don’t even come to me to express how amazing you are!! Thank you for all you do and Many Blessings!!
TO SEE SUCH NEGLECT OF THIS HORSE IS, MORE THAN HEART BREAKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU DID A LOT TO HELP THIS HORSE OUT & THANKS FOR SHARING!!! Do take care. Fl.
Wow. That was a mess. Thank you for helping the horse. ❤
Te felicito amigo hiciste un excelente trabajo, lo que habrá sufrido ese hermoso caballo, doy gracias a Dios que existan personas como tú 👏👏👏👏saludos desde Uruguay 🇺🇾 🇺🇾🇺🇾
This is heart breaking to watch the condition this poor horse was in and can't believe the amount of pain you figure 1,000 #s of weight of pressure on those feet before trimmed and corrected the best it can be for now
Thank you for the video and giving him a bath brushing out his mane and tail the most attention this horse has gotten in awhile attention and love he needs to have! Great job on feet and care he got thank you for what you do
im in no way a horse guy but i give you maximum respect for the work you do looking after these animals, thank you sir.
Amazing watching you work! I am so glad that the poor horses have you on their side. Thank you for a satisfying video of hoof restoration.
Now this horse should have a warm bath and brushing
So glad you have helped him and will be able to continue ….
What a brilliant job you did I really hope this horse makes a good recovery
Thank you for helping this poor horse. If people can’t afford to provide proper care of animals then they should rehome them. It is not fair to the animals.
That poor sweet horse. Thank you for helping him. ❤
Thank you for caring about the horse. It's what matters the most.
Thanks for helping him....he looks like a good boy who deserves a better home.....😊 A combination of brawn, knowledge & an artistic bent makes for a beautiful job!🎉
Thank goodness for talented men like this man. Thanks for saving the horse
Please post when you get back to this horse! You did remarkable work and I for one would like to see the final result. I’ll subscribe! And thanks for what you do!!!
May God Bless You for helping this animal ! Your kindness will certainly be rewarded. ❤
I bet that horse was sore af for a few days just from the physical shock of such a radical change but I hope with my whole heart he gets better care moving forward. You did a GREAT job!
This broke my heart. Thank you for easing his burden.
That poor beautiful horse,
Shame on the owner.
Thank you for helping him ❤
Now he needs some good food, and love, and he will be good as new! 💜💜💜💜🐴💜💜💜💜
I've never seen something so horrible. Poor, poor animal. Thanks for the good hearted person, helping out......❤❤
Happens very often when horses get into a grain bin and overdose. It is called foundering. A foundered horse grows hooves like this quickly and there is not much you can do. Especially when a hoof job like this is temporary and expensive.
That's worth knowing. I didn't know the horse would do that. Could it help if the grain bin would stand on a certain high, so it's impossible to stand in it. They would only have to bring their neck and head into the bin, unless they would or could still overdose ?!??
Excellent work and I enjoy your compassion for the horses you work on.
Thank you for helping out the horse despite their owners.
Oh my god this makes me so sad poor horse!THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR HELPING HIM🙏🏼God bless you
Wow! That was amazing. You did a great job on all the feet. I'm sure it will take him sometime to adjust to his new feet but I think he'll feel so much better. I hope the owner will continue to bring him to you so he can be trimmed on a regular bases and that will probably improve those back feet a great deal.
That poor dear creature. As a human with severe corns until recently, I could not walk properly, always in pain, could not wear so many types of shoes so I try to imagine how this was for the horse and I can't. Not even close.
I can only hope that he is more comfortable now and having some life.
This neglect makes my heart hurt. 😔 God bless you. 🙏
Wow. What an amazing transformation. You are truly great at your job. Thank you for helping this sweet horse.
I keep watching this video, feeling so sad in the condition. It thrills me how ya'll work miracles. Bless you and thank you for this rescue!
What an amazing job you did. How awesome the horse looked. Hope owner gets a clue. ❤
Hi doggo
An unsung hero for these animals. Fascinating work. Thank you for sharing.
Glad you were able to trim him. Hopefully in 6 weeks he'll get a follow up trim. ❤👍
