Before and after Crash's first trim

jokersmama · Before and after Crash's first trim

This is his first trim done by me. His feet are very compact like his dam's. He had an injury to his coronet band on his LF a while back and was on stall rest for a month and had to have the coronet stitched back down from his heel bulb almost to the quarters of his hoof! That foot got a little "clubby" in appearance I am trying to work on that a bit. Our environment here right now is ankle deep mud and soft ground one week, to hard frozen the next. Then ALL underwater! Needless to say it has been wet wet wet.

Here it is :D

*I did go back and fix the M/L imbalance on his LF after I took the pic but my camera batteries died so I couldn't get a "final trim" shot.

Ok sorry I'm not getting great angles in my photos, dang it! LOL

Front left This is the one he had an injury on. It was starting to get "clubby"

*********I DID fix that M/L imbalance but went to take another set of pics and the batteries died

I saw his frog was long and didn't let his heel touch the ground on the cement too, I fixed that also

He would not hold this hoof still! He kept pawing and shaking it and trying to stand on my camera LOL!

We've got a long way to go still :D His little feet tend to grow like donkey feet they grow up like coke cans.
He also obviously had a major event a couple months ago, I'm guessing it was one of his teeth floats where he had to be sedated multiple times or maybe his hoof injury/stall rest for a month (thus a feed change) that caused those rings. They are on all 4 hooves.

OMG.

His feet are so nice.

I'm so jealous.

*sigh*

What caused the change of grown in the foot (the new grown 1/3 down is different to the other 2 thirds of the foot)

EDIT: just read your post again. answered my question. sorry
