  • Hi I’m a farrier from the U.K. Today I will be trimming a Shetland pony with extremely long hooves.We are now putting her under a trimming plan so her feet will get better each time.
    Please note this is a rescue pony.
    Don’t forget to like and subscribe to my channel as I upload horse shoeing and trimming videos on a regular basis.
    Hope you have a great day and I’ll see you on the next video 🤙

    Aww poor baby and good on the new owners for getting you out immediately. How can people not get a farrier out for a trim. Doesn’t cost much instead they would rather then get into this state. Poor little girl. Well done on making them look like hooves again. And pat on the back to the new owners ❤❤

    It looks a bit difficult when you have to use one hand to hold the tiny foot, and then only have one hand for the nippers!

    • @Peterthefarrier
      @Peterthefarrier  Рік тому +4

      It can be a bit more difficult this way. But they are a lot more comfortable in this position so it is a trade off that is worth it.

    Always appreciate the compassion and kindness you show while shoeing.
    The new owners have a bit of work ahead of them. I didn’t get a great look but maybe still have cresty neck? Not sure. Either way an educated owner with a great team should give the ponies their best life.

    Hard to understand how someone could pay a pretty penny for an animal, only to not pay to maintain it. It’s no different from investing in a car, a house, etc. except…. It’s also alive and feels pain and sadness. Just don’t get it 😔 why but it in the first place?

    No doubt the wee pony was alarmed when trying to stand on part of the hoof that had been trimmed away. I can only imagine how peculiar it might feel - imagine standing there in a pair of stiletto heels, and after 1 foot is trimmed, you are now in a flat sandal!

    • @WillSturgeon-ts4is
      @WillSturgeon-ts4is Рік тому +1

      @@Saeid415 Wild horses have to travel miles over varied and rough terrain to find enough grazing, and water. Remember, they usually travel in herds, so they will eat an area down and have to find a new area while the one they grazed recovers. Meanwhile, Nature doesn't always place water conveniently next to a meadow, so now they have to travel for water as well. Growth wears off from all the travelling. More likely hoof insults would be uneven wear, usually on the lateral side, and with age, degenerative developments like sidebone will slow them down. And of course, Nature conveniently provides Preditors to pick off the lame and the infirm. Meanwhile, 'back at the Ranch', where the domestic horse stands around all day, getting overfed and under used, growing overweight and under cared for, hoof wise, the feet spread, develop flares, stand in mud and get thrush, the flares crack and grow into quarter cracks, under-educated Owners turn their animals out on Spring grass after months of winter hay, and the horse gets laminitis. The flared feet open issues between the wall and the sole into which dirt and manure get pressed, the body heat incubates the infectious spores in the crack, and now you have white line disease. The list goes on, but you get the drift.

    The new owner(s) is really great for putting the pony's feet first. That is usually the first thing that is overlooked by someone, thinking that ponies don't get their feet trimmed in the wild, so that's not a priority when they are kept in a pasture/stable environment. The long feet have a tendency to throw the pony off balance or cause strains.
    I really appreciate your taking time to let the pony settle before continuing the trim, also.
    Please let us know how future trims turn out.

      The hoof wall has distorted out of what you would consider normality. It needed dressing forward to take it back in to line with distal phalanx.
