Introduction Day

Charlie says 'Why are you showing me this washing machine agitator?'

A pretty standard shod hoof, but what lays beneath?

Quite a bit of white line disease but otherwise a fairly standard hoof.

Charlie never realised he was that interesting.

Most of the white line disease has been removed, whilst still leaving Charlie some hoof.

Suddenly Charlie's day has got worse, now he is being attacked with inner tubes!

Hands On Trimming

Our hoof, not a lot wrong with this leg really.

The trimmed hoof, the parcel tape makes the leg easier to work with.

A lateral view of the hoof. It's hard to tell whether this is a near or off fore when it's not attached to a horse.

Hoof trimmers do it in strange positions!

Dissection

We often run our legs through a band saw on the hands on day, this allows us to see how right we got our trim. We also run dedicated Fine Dissection days.

Looking at tendons and ligaments.

Looking at the action of the fetlock.
