Hoof changes! Barefoot old lady week 8

[ATrueClassAct]

Old lady has now been bare for two months and had two trims. She's looking good on pea gravel at the new yard and no problem over soft ground and concrete.
I took photos today and was pretty shocked at the size in frogs with the foot with 9 degrees rotation

Some great progress going on there! But please, when she has her next trim, slap the farrier when he starts hacking at those frogs.

Ill tell the new farrier , we've moved out of old farriers area sadly.

Bump flump, if anyone else has any advice thank you LittleBlackMule
Is wood chip good for barefoot horses to be turned out on?

I agree with this. The heels are decontracting already.

 

[ATrueClassAct]

Yay! That's all good . She's so much happier in herself now she's bare

 

[Meowy Catkin]

That's the most important thing. A happy, sound horse = a happy owner after all.

Well done for getting her through the laminitis, I hope that she continues to improve (I'm sure that she will get there).

Defiantly Faracat it's been a long road but worth it.

And I know googol!! I was looking at them thinking oh hello big frogs?!
