Hoof Balance and Trim

06/02/2026

Ok obviously this hoof needs a good trim and the main issue was this horse was lame. She really just needed a set up trim and was actually moving much better post trim. What I wanted you to notice is how distortion which may be very subtle just after a trim and if kept up with every 4 to 5 weeks may not be present, but if left alone it really starts to show. This hoof is starting to show the extreme distortion which becomes exaggerated as more time goes by

I really like this. This translates to other aspects in the horse world.

More "crayons" 😉 for the triggered individuals. But for those who want to see, this illustrates a collapsing caudal structure.

I find it interesting that people think it's good form to comment in a rude way when not asked. Apparently I post BS with crayons and we are all crazy emotional women. Sorry nutcase women. Don't let this type of man deter you from viewing and asking questions. And then he says I have to block him lol.

Improving the caudal structure isn't about forcing a change. It's encouraging. Allowing the hoof to find its natural curves and build strength. Rehabbing takes time and patience. Sometimes it's subtle, other times it's dramatic. As long as the horse feels better and improves in natural movement....

I'm only focusing on the heel angle in these pictures. Sometimes it's more helpful to compartmentalize parts of the hoof. Taking pictures helps you see things that you may not pick up with your eyes, but when you see the hoof through a picture you are able to see more.
