Great video, I have one query through. In my experience as a veterinary physio, I often find that high foot/heel result from long term offloading of that limb which would tell me that you would be correcting this problem till you are blue in the face but you won't necessarily be addressing the source of the issue: Why is this heel high? Do you also work along side lameness veterinarians before correcting these problems? and if so, what is the most common cause you and your veterinary colleagues are finding in these high heel feet?
The goal is that they should even out over time with corrective shoeing! By shoeing where the foot should be, we hope to promote healthier growing of the hoof that is more even and balanced for the horse!
Hi Teresa! That's why it is so important to get a history on your horse! In this case we had a thorough history, and know the right's deformation is due to conformation issues, not laminitis!
@@TeresaHetu it is possible there has been some degree of rotation! We assume that this is a resulted rotation or change of angle due to the way the horse has been shod in the past, in an effort to move the toe!
Congenital club feet often also develop osteopenia of P3 due to the high palmar angle exerting excessive force on the dorsal margin of P3 and the circumflex artery.
Why would you be growing heel out and forward increasing the leverage to underrun the heels further instead of standing the horse more upright and reducing that leverage to allow the heel to drop down and back?
In an uneven horse such as this one, nothing will change how the hoof grows out naturally. How we trim it will simply allow the hoof that needs to grow out to do so!
Another brilliant video. I find it fascinating. Thank you for educating us and uploading this video. Stay safe 🙏❤️🫶🏻👍👏🐴🐴🐴
Thank you so much! We appreciate the continued support SO much!!!

Will the feet always stay high low or will correct shoeing make them even out. Great video Jeb!

His twin in the next bay over, looked like it had high-low issues too. In fact, I thought it was the far horse Jeb was talking about at first.
Why was so much overlaid bar allowed to stay on the flatter foot? Won't that just continue to pull the heel forward and under?
What nippers are you using?
I wonder what caused the laminitis in that higher foot and the coffin bone remodeling. other foot seems unaffected.

@@olsenequinecjf with deformation to the coffin bone like that? It had to have sunk a little at some point.

great job it would be nice to see feet after the shoes are on
Not a true high low
