Re: [barefoothorses] my horses hooves teach me

Can you tell me how well they adjusted to the noise from the grinder.  For whatever reason, getting a ferrier and keeping them seems to be hard!  Especially when I point to the Mustang!  They don't want to touch her, although she stands fine!  The last one left his nippers here, called to say he was coming to get them the next week as they cost him $150, and I've never heard another word from him!!!

Subject: [barefoothorses] my horses hooves teach me

I would like to invite y'all to see my new photo album, "My horses'
feet teach me". I am learning so much by going bare. The photos are of
my 2000 OTTB (retired racehorse) gelding. I still have a ways to go to
get his feet where they need to be but we've made significant
progress.
If you have a moment, please view the album as a slideshow so you can
read my comments about each photo. I would love some feedback. Isn't
it terrific that women can do this too!!!
I am grateful to whomever crossposted the link to the Abrasive horse
hoof trimmers yahoo group, as I am finding trimming SO much faster,
easier by using the abrasive method. The trims in the photos were done
with traditional tools. TTFN Happy trails!!

My mare took it fine with about 15 minutes of desensitizing (approach retreat method). She might not have needed that much, but I wanted to be super safe. I...
