Ah, lol, you make it look so easy! Having trouble finding a farrier that gets it since I moved! So ... trying it on my own. Gees, hard work and way harder than it looks! Getting a grinder tomorrow! I have horses with totally opposite problems one is high footed with slight clubbing in the left front and the other has long toes and underrun heels ... that farriers have only made worse ... ahem! PS my old farrier from MT who did a great job sent me your way!
It’s heck of a work out for someone like me who doesn’t do it often enough to get really strong. I usually do only the fronts or only the backs per session. But I love it. Thank you to Daisy for sharing your beautiful techniques.
thank you for posting this video!..keep a sharp eye on hoof wall flaring...i am learning the hard way about sinking laminitis ..i'm on my forth farrier...all lacking knowledge of 'backing the toe', 'rolling (mustang roll) edges', and addressing the flaring..with these videos i have learned, and i am using the same techniques, to make the horse comfortable..can't fix sinking laminitis...i found the problem by having the Vet do x-rays...thanks again and God bless
Hi! It's an Archery Guard, and great for protecting your arm against the knife too! www.etsy.com/listing/483619705/woodland-brown-leather-arm-guard-and-3

What sort of grinder is that ...and what disc ? I have an electric one (hoof trimming tool) but it is much smaller and the heads are not nearly as good (plus being electric is restrictive)
Thank you for only grinding what you need to on the outside of the wall! I see other farriers sand or grind everything smooth, and I think, greeeaaaat, there goes a ton of useful information, in the name of cosmetics. :/
Agree with you 100%. the only time I take foot from the top is if it's distorted and needs addressing so new growth comes in straighter. If it's not distorted over overgrown I'm going to leave it!
You barely touched the frogs and as a result, it seems that the horse was standing on his frogs. I cannot be sure because I never saw a caudal view. For what reasons did you barely touched the frogs?
This horse has a low heel already. I left the frog to support the back of the foot. I'm not worried about him overloading the frog this way because the ground is soft and he will have support and load across the entire back of the foot, not just on the frog.
I hear what you're saying. With the ground being soft, the soft tissues have less clearance from the ground, which could possibly add more pressure to the corium.
I swear every time heels get brought back where they belong, a choir of angels starts singing :D
Agree!!! It's a beautiful thing! The key is bringing the toe back with the heels too!
You have an excellent farrier, he has so much knowledge and does wonderful work! I hope he continues to work on horses to change their lives
One of the things I love when they get their feet back is how they feel-out the new proprioceptive information the changes in the foot is giving them.
Truly...he was "test driving" the new feelings in his feet a fair bit. Was fascinating to watch.
@@DaisyHavenFarm film it next time! We’d love to see.

Awesome Kate! Let me know if there's anything I can do to help you more!

@@DaisyHavenFarm hi there where do you get your grinder from? Would make my life much easier thanks

Good for you! Your horse will benefit from your efforts to be an active part of their hoof care!
I am sooo sorry I didn't see that your farrier was a women no wonder I was impressed with her work. Omg she is Excellent!!!
LOL no worries Jeanne, the woman farrier is ME! :)
Good Job. congratulations 🕊️🌺🌹💋
Would you mind telling me where you get your arm guard? I feel like I need arm guards as I learn to use the hoof knife
Hi! It's an Archery Guard, and great for protecting your arm against the knife too! www.etsy.com/listing/483619705/woodland-brown-leather-arm-guard-and-3
Well done.
Thank you! It seems very basic to me, however, it's the nuances that matter, eh?
What brand/style of nippers are you using, Daisy? They look like they might be spring-loaded?
These are ICAR nippers with a W-Brand nipper spring!
Will you do any comparison photos as this hoof progresses? Was he sensitive after this trim and shoes being removed?
I can definitely add photos of the hoof progression as I see him! He was not sensitive at all.
Hey Daisy, what disk are you using ?
They're 24 grit sanding disks with a hard backing plate.
Thank you Daisy, great job with the video. 👍
@@bryanmarek Thank you! More coming! :). It's addictive and FUN to just share our daily work!
Nice job Daisy. That's a nice compact angle grinder, what make is it.
Thank you! It's a Metabo: a.co/d/7mzIekV
Good work 🩵
Thank you 🙌
Where to you work what state I love your work daisy
Thank you! I'm in SouthEastern PA!
Now he needs them buffed to a polish. I’ll bet he really likes being barefoot. Lucky horse and owner to have you ! 🍀
He's had his third trim now, and is doing very well barefoot!
What kind of grinder is that?

Well ... that is something new. To me at least. I had thought about using a hand-held electric sander to do some of that work. Thanks.
It makes a HUGE difference as long as you know where you're going with your trim! And always be safe!

Why do you want him to walk on the hoofsole insted of the hoof wall in the front of the hoof. ? I like your videos very much 😀
