    I volunteer for a local farm animal rescue/sanctuary. A little more than a year ago, we took in an older pony from an auction about this size who had been severely neglected and had hooves curled up just like this. It has taken pretty much this whole year of regular corrective hoof trimming with a very knowledgeable farrier for his feet and body to more or less recover, and he still may never be perfect. After all, when their hooves are angled like that, especially for so long, it messes up their muscles, tendons, joints, etc., and they can be quite sore for a while - they have to essentially re-learn how to walk correctly. He kind of shuffled around at first, but he is doing much better now.
    Thank you for doing such a wonderful job with these ponies, and I'd be curious to see the progress they make. Hopefully they make a full recovery and are cared for properly the rest of their lives. It's so sad to see this kind of thing happen when it's preventable.

    It's like watching a sculptor working on a block of stone - they can see the finished piece in the stone. This Farrier is looking at a mass of curved and twisted material and seeing the proper hoof in amongst it. It's almost as much an art as a science! VERY happy ponies.

    In many ways you are fortunate. At least these ponies were tame. I adopted an abandoned, abused pony about 3 years ago. It took more than two of those for me to get her to trust me enough to be able to catch her, much less work on her feet. Even a trip to the vet for sedation failed to stop her from kicking. Getting her used to being handled and having her feet worked on took a lot of effort but, with a lot of patience and commitment, I'm happy to say that things eventually worked out and I now have a fairly trusting, healthy pony with 4 good feet.

      I had a Shetland and practically had to get on my knees to trim my pony. I couldn't get a farrier out to come out for one pony so I had to learn to trim him myself. It is a sin to let them get that long!!!! 🤨

    A neighbour has a Shetland pony, sometimes her toddler rides it but she has a tiny pony trap for it to pull, trotting around the lanes, so it needs shoes. I saw the blacksmith shoeing it, poor guy was bent double as the pony was so low down, he said he custom makes the shoes as no commercial manufacturer makes them so small.

    Poor little guys, I feel so bad for them. Good job guys, I bet it was such a relief to have there hoofs trimmed.

    Wow. That second hoof. I closed my eyes for about 15 seconds and the difference was like night and day. The WAS a proper hoof under all that overgrowth.
