23.01.2022 Some bits and bobs in our every day horse shoeing
22.01.2022 To follow up to my last post regarding heel proportion. Whilst most understood my point of view it seem to maybe cause a little miss understanding with the hum...an limbs photo. The photo was for illustration in regards to heel height/length and the relation to posture and limb placement and nothing to do with HPA. (I am perfectly aware that human limbs and horse limbs have different biomechanics!!) One of the main points I was trying to get over is by having better limb placement you stand a good chance of achieve a more ideal HPA without to much funky trimming or shoeing etc. The foot is at the end of a long lever which is attached to the rest of the horse however even small adjustment to the solar plain (heel height proportions) can have a significant effect on posture. The photos are in shoeing sequence from start to finish with the horse untied and moved back and forward a few steps between photo so he is standing in his own comfortable position/posture! These are my photos from a horse I shod yesterday and I accept that there are many variables but again this is an illustration and not the only way or a must do. This is my business page and I post primarily for my clients etc. Whilst happy for other professional to use/share and comment etc, if some of the terminology or facts are not 100% text book correct or direct to the equine, this is because I always try and simplify things so they are more understandable The part to take most interest in, is the measurements after pic 5 where I left heel on and then the measurements after pic 9 where I trimmed the heels to my normal proportions. Might of lost 0.4 degree in dorsal wall angle after trimming the heels but gained a whopping 13.9 degree positive change in pastern angle!! To put it the other way around, if you left the excess heel growth on to facilitate HPA you would then have to remove 13.9 deg of toe and set shoe well under the foot to match the pastern!! Sometimes (or a lot of the time!) it’s not the actual foot at fault but farriers either act or are pressured to act on matching the foot to the rest of the horse which usually results in some funky trimming or toe removal, where in fact if we just think a little we can actually match the horse to the foot. Every horse is different and 1 size doesn’t fit all, but if fundamental basics are followed from the start, we and the horse stand a better chance of a trouble free life

01.01.2022 Wrinkled fingers are caused when the blood vessels below the skin constrict caused by excessive immersion in water, in humans we come out of the water and it re...turns to normal. This year thanks to the wonderful British weather I have had a few horses on my books go crippled lame due to what I can only describe as water saturated feet, after being in of a night and their feet drying out they have returned to soundness! If we did any form of manual labour with wrinkled fingers I'm sure we would be sore rather quick, now imagine you had to walk on them! In the picture below is an example of one of the horses that has gone lame with "saturated" feet. The frog is "wrinkled" and has evidence of bruising and just generally looks withered. In the wild horses roam, from terrain to terrain and don't generally waddle in a field swamp. Please bear this in mind when turning them out. . Please note the comparison to wrinkled fingers is a metaphor to provoke thought and make people question the possible effects of prolonged wet conditions. .
