Beyond proud of this girl ❤️ 20+ years old, she hasn’t had it easy, people haven’t been kind, and hoof care seemed an unnecessary stress that she just didn’t understand.

Somehow we have got to this point of trust and understanding ❤️

Just a little conversation between two friends ❤️

Will Amira ever be 100% relaxed around me? 🤔 Our progress in the last 4 years has been incredible however the 17 years beforehand have created some deeply programmed templates.

As long as she is a happy and healthy horse then I’m happy** ❤️

** sitting here with a swollen hand 🤦🏽‍♀️ I tried to swat a fly on her belly and Miss Whiplash decided my hand was the threat 😣 😅

BALANCE is a word that can open a huge can of worms if we think about what it means and how it so widely affects your horse…

Micromanaging each area of your horse’s health is tiring and endless 🤪

🥳 The beauty is that we don’t need to know all the answers or be a professor of all things…

Mother Nature is always ready to pull every cell of your horses body back to wHolistic balance…

We only need to move out of her way ❤️⚖️❤️

Balance is everything ⚖️❤️⚖️

This horse had his shoes removed in 2022 but unfortunately his natural balance was not being honoured in the way he was trimmed…

This horse’s strange footfall was so clearly visible and it made perfect sense when I looked at his imbalanced hind hooves… 🤔

I removed a lot of hoof that had been previously left by the previous well meaning farrier…

💔 Imagine the weight of that extra hoof…

💔 Imagine the shock to the leg when the hoof hits the ground before it’s meant to…

💔 Imagine the strain on the joints…

Over and over again 💔

By simply removing what the horse would have in a natural environment…

And reinstating his balance…

We straight away see better balance ❤️⚖️❤️

This was a milestone for me and Miss Whiplash🏆 ❤️

A year and a half of perseverance and finally I have a horse who is calm about hoof care on all 4 feet 🥳

This has been a bit of her feeling so much better on her hooves, a bit of knowing that she can trust me when she is on 3 legs, and a lot of me becoming the person that she needs ❤️

Whether it’s 5mm wedges, pumps or stilettos, it’s always a relief to take your heels off at the end of the day 😌 👠

🇪🇸 In Spain, high heels are SO painfully common 😔

Heel to toe balance is ESSENTIAL for correct alignment of the whole leg and body…

Trimming your horse’s heels down is NEVER guesswork, nor is measuring involved…

Instead the heels are trimmed down to the height that self trimming would have achieved in a NATURAL environment…

Quite simple really ❤️

If you think your horse’s heels are creeping higher and higher then get in touch with me today 📞 💬

No hooves today, but another passion of mine ‘ZOOPHARMACOGNOSY’ 💚💚💚💚

Common sense and connection with your intuition will tell you that this is nonsensical ❤️‍🩹

“Better symmetry is always a good thing in my eyes and while this horse isn’t symmetrical in his body, his balance and straightness is far improved in less than a year” 👏🏼

Last year his left and right fore hooves were not a pair…

Probably had something to do with his weaker right hind and weight shifting onto his left fore…

After 8 months of trimming to his natural shape…

His 3 point 🔺support remained almost the same size on the right fore…

However the left fore started with a much narrower support and then went through dramatic changes…

And the final result is almost the same size support as the right and the whole foot became a similar shape to the right fore 🥳

Better symmetry is always a good thing in my eyes and while this horse isn’t symmetrical in his body, his balance and straightness is far improved in less than a year 👏🏼

Improved stride, balance and straightness surely has something to do with the improvement in the stability and symmetry of where he loads his weight onto his hooves, his 3 point 🔺 support ❤️

I’d be interested to hear if anyone else has had similar changes 🤔 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

Following on from yesterday’s post… 🥺🤦🏽‍♀️

17/07/2025

Every day on horsey Facebook groups, we see posts from worried owners having a total melt down over small chips or minor cracks in hooves. While those things aren’t ideal, they’re rarely serious and are usually easy to fix.

What’s more concerning is that many of these same owners are paying – and praising – farriers who leave their horses with hoof capsules shaped like the one in the bottom image.

Let’s be clear: hooves shaped like are life-threatening. And no, that’s not me being dramatic.

Owners – it’s time to get educated. Learn what a healthy hoof capsule truly looks like. Hint: it looks nothing like what you see in the bottom image.

The hoof is a complex structure with a very simple message… 💕

One very simple design Mother Nature intended for her hooves…

A very stable 3 point base, 2 heel supports and 1 toe support… 🔺🔺🔺🔺

Creating this very beautiful and simple design that allows your horse stability over all surfaces…

And makes him secure enough not to fall over while taking a nap 😴

Unfortunately shoes forgot this rule 😜

Even if your horse doesn’t have road pins…

It’s very likely that there will be nails standing proud, which raise the toe off the ground 🤦🏽‍♀️

Mother Nature only wants the best for your horse… 🥰

And I think if you’ve read this far then your intuition already knows that 😉 ❤️

New horse to trim 😌 and another chance to reset balance and plant the roots of balance this horse was really asking for ❤️

This horse was trimmed less than 3 weeks ago 😱 Unfortunately he was not given his own unique balance that is personal to him and his body 😢

I exfoliated the tonne of lumpy old sole to find the horses true sole… ✨

Then I trimmed the hoof to the balance shown to me by his true sole… ✂️

Tada 🎉 🎉🎉🎉

Balance ⚖️

His true balance ⚖️⚖️

The balance that his body needs right now ⚖️❤️⚖️

Now to watch positive progress 😍
