Looks like they are in need of a trim.

When were they last done?

PeggySue · 08-08-2008, 10:41 AM

they are over due ...having farrier issues

PeggySue · 08-08-2008, 10:42 AM

for as far as they are overdue think WAY overdue from what I understand Id on't think they look TOO bad

Overall not to bad as far as the shape of the hoove, but heels need to come back/down and be leveled. RF looks like it had some jamming near the front of the quarters. Then there is a wee bit of flaring from being overdue, something that will probably be addressed on the next trim.

PeggySue · 08-08-2008, 10:43 AM

they are roughly about 16 weeks or so

Moostang · 08-08-2008, 10:44 AM

For 16 weeks I think they good! At 16 weeks Scout would look like he had a platform supporting him.

I wish Sassy had feet that nice

I'd be incredibly pleased if my horses' feet looked like this after 16 weeks!

The must live in, or she rides in, a pretty rocky/abrasive environment for there to be some semblance of rounding on the walls, and it looks like there are quiet a few scrape marks on the hoof wall. How nice!
