Can this be done when the soles are thin? Is this the

Re: New Horse Hoof question
If I didn't already, thank you Jean.
This response of yours gave me the right questions to ask of the vet and helped me decide on how to proceed.

Re: New Horse Hoof question
Thank you,
All the information plus a talk with the inspecting vet has decided me to pass on this opportunity. But the knowledge is priceless going forward.

Re: New Horse Hoof question
In addition to the info that Jean provided, a club foot is a response to problems further up the leg. In order to attempt to normalize it, you need to find the underlying cause and correct that first.

Hi Kamdace,
You need to create a signature on each individual group as they don't carry over.
Here's the link to your member page for this group:

HI Amy
You could try using Previcox/Equioxx instead. They’re the same compound as each other and less inclined to give horses stomach ulcers compared with bute. Previcox is the dog version and

Re: New Horse Hoof question
Thanks Sherry,
This horse has not been out of the ring, unfortunately. She is coming 7 and spent 2 and 3 Y.O. as a halter horse. Was only backed in the last year. Obviously, we have many many miles

Best painkiller for stiffness/trimming
Hi
My 30 year old mare, PPID not IR,
is stiff behind when trimming. Other than bute is there a short acting pain/inflammation remedy that works for this?
Thanks

Re: New Horse Hoof question
Hi Kandace,
How sound a clubfooted horse will be is determined by a bunch of factors, but let's start with 'what are you planning on doing with this horse? How old is it? What is it doing now?'

Re: Angle grinders
Ooh. The Proxxon is 1.8 pounds. Looks light weight. Something about the vibration in tools sets off my arthritic hands. Bet it doesn’t feel great on arthritic horse joints, either.
