      The horse was sedated in order for him to be able to work on the horse's hooves. He said that the horse was sedated and in one clip you see a lowered head which is from the sedation. No way would the horse allow this to occur without it.

    Thanks for watching everyone. We charge very little to trim these neglected cases. Many of you want us to report the owners. While this seems like a good idea, it sure would keep these horses from coming to our school for help. Many owners would fear the consequences of getting help. We keep it anonymous and recommend more frequent farrier care. This helps us leave the door open for horses that need help.

She had to fight for her food and didn't win very often because she had bite wounds all over. I had gone with my friend who was looking at some of the riding horses for sale. The manager asked if we would be interested in a "Free Pony". I immediately went home and got my truck and trailer. First thing in the morning I called a vet. She had super bad teeth, a severe case of sand colic with horrible diarrhea. Teeth floated, treated the colic (she pooped nothing but sand for 2 days) special diet of alfalfa pellets and dressed her wounds. She made a full recovery and lived another year, happy and healthy.

    As an owner of a hobby farm with only 3 horses, most people don’t realize the expense of horse ownership. Fortunately my wife and I had incomes to support and maintain our small herd. Square bale hay here in Connecticut is $8-10 a bale. We need 400 bales every season. Every 6-8 weeks the farrier comes to trim, reuse the shoes or replace $250.00. The grain, fresh water and treats add up every month. We just put up a new barn 10 years ago. So you see it’s a costly hobby to get into and maintain. Not to mention vet bills twice a year. ($75.00) just to visit your barn before any treatment. You can’t cheap out on your horses. They deserve all the care you can give. I just subscribed. Thanks for the quality and informative videos.

      I choose to tell myself that these are the stories of horses owned by someone who died. In the months of hospital stays and funeral arrangements and divvying up property and possessions, the family remembers to feed the horse... but it takes all that time for the non-horse people to look at the poor boy's feet and ask, "are hooves supposed to look like that?" And then it takes them a while to find someone that can help.

    RESPECT! Hand trimming is no joke. I follow a hoof trimmer for cattle in Scotland and he uses a grinder. Sticking to the old ways where you can feel every cut is an art. Much respect. This is HARD work and takes maximum skill. Bravo. Being a Ferrier is NO JOKE. It takes skill and you really have to be in shape to not only cut the hoofs, but manage a sedated horse when necessary. Horses are heavy, and if you're trying to keep a horse upright under light sedation while manually trying to trim the hoofs, that's strength and skill.

      You obviously know nothing about situations like this.
      The most common I remember was elderly people that couldn't get to animals because of age or illness and didn't have the money to get them fixed afterwards.
      The usual option was to just have a neighbor dig a hole with a tractor and put them down.
      Or they could be sold to a renderer at a stock yard.
      So a lifetime of raising animals and an elderly person getting dementia and you scream ignorant insults at them.
