Welcome Vanya! Hope to hear from you often and to hear what sort of snags you run into. I'm sure we've all run into the same snags at some point, or could benefit from hearing problems you've addressed and fixed.

Hi guys. I am cross-posting this to most of the lists that I'm on in an
effort to get as much input as possible.

I had read some disturbing things about the use of the Quest de-wormer
in the past so I just decided to leave it out of my rotation. But, I've
ordered my next round of de-wormer for my horses, which should have
been Safeguard, and I instead received Quest. I'm trying to decide if I
should send the Quest back to the company and go with the Safeguard
that I originally ordered, or if I would be OK just giving them the
Quest that I have received.

Do any of you have any words of wisdom or advice on this for me?

Thanks in advance!

Yes.  If the frogs are growing out they become thicker so if they
are not wearing down, they will need trimmed too just as any other
part of the hoof that grows and does not wear on its own.

I usually leave the frog along unless there are little flaps that will catch the dirt and bacteria or in cases of founder, where a frog that's overgrown will cause too much pressure. Otherwise, I don't touch it. Lowering the heel will usually allow the frog to be compressed naturally. If the heel is super high, then you'll probably have to trim excess frog as it will have been attempting to touch the ground the whole time the heels were high.

I've personally seen more problems created by over trimming of the bars than not trimming. Soles dropping due to no support etc. My horses rarely get their bars touched...they've shed them off as they've fully transitioned. I've found that excess bars are most critical on foundered horses that already are sensitive to any pressure. Even a frog that overgrows can be too much for them. Those horses I keep the bars trimmed to just above the sole.

I think I've watched that video too.  That part made no sense to me
when sole isn't that strong compared to wall horn.

From what I can remember of that video it looked more like it was
the heels that were causing the quarter wall separations and bending
the bars.

Bars can cause problems that could lead to contraction but high
heels raises the biggest red flag for me.  When heels are high they
force more of the horse's weight onto the toes.  With less weight on
the heels they can close in tighter.  My horses used to have high
heels when my farrier was caring for their feet.  I learned to lower
them and they were able to adjust to the lower heels.  Of course, I
had to do more than just lower the heels.  I trimmed the bars level
with the sole just like what you see in those wild horse feet.

The picture is fairly low quality but I'd say that the heels are definitely too long. Bars should be trimmed when excessively long, but I've found that as long as they aren't too long, they can be left alone. I've seen more problems from trimming the bars too low and causing problems that way too. They are there for a reason. My horses have long since shed the bars once their feet transitioned completely, and I rarely have any to trim. With laminitic horses it's especially important that the bars are not left too long though. Anything that causes pressure on an already sore foot needs to be avoided. As I said, I judge by running my hand over the whole of the foot and if I feel a spot that comes up over the trimmed and beveled walls, I bring it down. If the foot hits the ground, the bars should come into passive contact. Just make sure that they do not get trimmed below the live sole. Pressure on the walls is what causes separation. The bars being left long may cause soreness that will cause the horse to walk on the toe instead of the heel. This can lead to separation, not the bar itself. Lowering the heels will go a long way to helping. Make sure you don't trim them down below a safe distance. The collateral groove will tell you how far you can go without getting into the lateral tendons and ligaments and causing soreness Pete Ramey's book and Jaime Jackson's books are a great place to start with understanding how the collateral groove measurements can assist you in assessing just how much is safe to trim off. Your horse may never have perfect heels. They may always be contracted somewhat, but if your horse is sound and remaining that way, then it's where that horse is going to be. Trying to force the horses foot into something that it isn't will only cause lameness and reluctance to walk heel to toe.

Rachel,

I've found that with horses with contracted heels, the best thing to do, is not do too much. I'm rehabbing a herd of horses whose feet were in terrible shape due to a trimmer doing too much all the time. Thinning the soles to create "flex", trimming heels and attempting to widen them to the point that the heels were thinned to collapse. I only beveled the walls, left the sole completely alone as they all had zero clearance at the collateral groove at the tip of the frog, and trimmed the heels as far as they could safely be trimmed. I did nothing else to the heels. In one month, the heels on the two horses with contractions have at least leveled and are no longer collapsed on one side. The soles are concaving naturally to the point that I can finally start removing dead sole and the feet themselves are looking much healthier. The two horses with severely contracted heels may never have "normal" heels, but they are no longer lame and I've found that over time, if you just keep the heels down and the toe from coming forward, the heels will "de-contract" on their own. Sometimes it's all of a sudden. You go to trim, and you realize, that the heels are well....normal. I have one horse I trim that is no longer contracted and one of my own that had one foot with a contracted heel due to poor shoeing before I got him. He's all of a sudden spread out on his own and I did nothing more than trim the heels down, keep the bars from getting too high ( I don't trim them down farther than I can feel with my palm if I lay it across the foot) and leave it alone otherwise. You can't "make" a heel get wider, you can only trim the foot in as normal and healthy a manner as you can, and allow the horse the chance to heal. If you could get pictures of the hoof in profile, it would also be helpful. I'd like to see the toe, if there's still lamilar wedge or if the toe looks long. The foot doesn't look that bad underneath. Yes the heel is contracted, but you have a sole that is coming along nicely. I would probably bring back the toe from the top more and bring the heel down a bit more. It looks like you have quite a bit of depth at the collateral groove. I would also bevel a lot more than what the photo looks like. It doesn't look like much bevel on the hoof and you'll end up with pressure on the walls.

How long since the last trim? These feet look very overgrown and due for a trim.

I also see some serious infection in the back of the foot. Have you treated the feet for thrush? Linda Cowles has excellent thrusth RX info at her site www.healthyhoof.com.

I would also think you might have some diet issues going on her.

I am by no mean an expert, just a backyard trimmer, but it looks like Denny's heels are too high but I can't really tell from the pictures. Do you have any pictures of Denny's hooves taken from the side with the camera near the ground?

Hi Rachel ... Pete Ramey's "Making Natural Hoofcare Work for You" is the other text which we use in this course. I have had many students take this course who were still on dial up without high speed internet. All the materials are always online for up to a year following the start of the course so one can access them at anytime, night or day, as individual scheduling allows. I don't think you would have any issues taking the course with dial up.
