I am looking for a barefoot trimmer in Texas- South Houston area. If anyone can connect me with a trimmer in this area, please email me privately at...
Joel told me there is a saddle fitting clinic in Marana or AV that you are wanting him to go to. He needs directions. You can e-mail to me as he doesn't do...
Thank you to everyone who responded. I am still looking for a trimmer, because the people that I have been referred to are 90+ minutes drive from me. Thanks...
I am having a problem with a young stud we resently got, he has been abused badly we believe, and are making no progress at this time. Gelding is not a option...
... Gelding him should be your first consideration...whether he is expensive or not. His temperment would tell me that he's not a good stallion prospect...
I also think that no matter how much you "think " he is worth, he needs to be gelded, he already has had a rough start and regaining his trust is going to be...
Hannah, First off, did I read you right that you kept this colt locked up in a trailer, with no access to the outside, for two months?! If that is the case, I...
I usually spend my time lurking on this list, but I am compelled to speak up on the issue of this young horse. How can you be concerned in the fact that he...
I must disagree with everyone that has said that the best for this stud would be snip snip. I think the best thing for this horse would be a new owner. When I...
Hello Hannah, I have been reading these replies from our "armchair quarterbacks". You seem to be getting a beating for keeping the colt in a horse trailer and...
... Yes, its easy to judge from where one sits. ... seems ... to ... Please do keep on asking for advice. For whatever reason you did keep him in the trailer I...
... Nothing armchair about us. I think to date I've rescued 5 horses. Severely abused. They are a challenge but if you're patient things work out okay. ...
You're getting a pretty rough shake here. It sounds to me like you have a lot to handle and are trying to make some headway. Not being there to see the...
Why hasnt there been any activity on this group ? Sure is an interesting puzzle . Has everyone moved somewhere else or what? I have so much to ask and get...
... I try to answer questions when they come up...my partner and I have a farrier buisness, 60% which is barefoot, she has studied Pete Rameys work in Detail...
... I'm also puzzled about that but I suppose, like me, everybody is too busy! As far as horsey feet go, I'm now up to keeping 5 in check and as life in...
well, I am a barefoot trimmer and I will be happy to discuss what i have been seeing going on. Since its spring and its really wet here in Oregon I am using...
It has been wet here in Oklahoma and I noticed that my horses feet seem more
tender but until this wet time have not thought of the boots for a long
time ....
I, too, have had great success with beveling the hoof wall. Some time back we (Wanda & I) posted pictures of Elska's feet, which were suffering hoof wall...
If y'all go to Pete's site http://www.hoofrehab.com, let the photos go through their slide show and you'll see some great examples of beveled walls! That plus...
I am fairly new to the group but know that there is a lot of knowledge here. I need it. I have a 18 YO chronic foundered Thoroughbred. Both fronts are...
What do you do about it? I have a horse on my rounds that I believe has WLD. Not chalky in the white line, but cracking all along it, and little integrity in...
WLD in 4 weeks can do a lot of damage. THe area needs to be debried to open it up to air. Save A Hoof Gel works well. I've seen horse that have lost their...

Never used that stuff Don, but when my boy got a big bad splint as a weanling 8~O I used a mixture of ACV & Cayenne pepper painted on twice daily. His splint...
ACV = Apple Cider Vinegar, and I don't remember exactly, but definitely not a paste! I think it was about 1 cup of ACV to about a TBSP of pepper - you have to...
