I love these rock crunchers ❤️ This mare's paddock is a great mix of gravel, sand, and soft grass. She's got excellent hooves and is sound on any surface. I always encourage owners to mix up the footing in pastures to help grow strong hooves and happy mounts 🐎

That was a wonderful thunderstorm last night! My pastures are looking greener and greener every day, and there's so much food out there, I'd love to skip buying hay this week and let them graze...

My horses AND donkeys will remain on their track system, eating their low sugar forage, watching that grass grow from their side of the fence. All it takes is one time on that sugar rich grass and your equine's hooves can fall apart. It only takes 20-72 hours for a laminitic episode to set in after a trigger event. Don't gamble with months and months of pain, rehabilitation, and vet/farrier bills for a picturesque view of your baby eating that fresh green grass ❤️

Diana does an excellent job summing this up!
Your babies need routine hoof trims just like everyone else ❤️

I know it's not really fall for us yet in Texas, but with all the rain we just got our pastures are going to start growing again like it's spring!

Happy Friday folks! 🤩
This is Cruz, available for adoption at Partnering Together to Save At Risk Donkeys in Texas - DD Donkeys
I keep my clients adult donkeys on a 10-12 week schedule but the babies are on a 5-6 week. The babies grow so rapidly that the toe can really get away from us, causing them to rock back and crush heels, straining tendons and ligaments. Growing fast while out of bony alignment is not good for these little turds! A shorter trimming cycle helps keep that toe under control, giving the rear structures of the hoof (bars, frog, heels, and the digital cushion) a chance to catch up and keep everything aligned. 💪
Have a great weekend!

A fresh set for this little man 💅
He's very sensitive to sugar and it shows in his hooves and behavior. The owner has tweaked his diet (no more grain folks!!!) and he's feeling so much better. He went from hobbling around the pasture and laying down all the time to sprinting away when you approach with the halter 🤣 I'm happy to see him so comfortable on his own feet!

I got myself a new toy 😁 DEWALT
This thing makes quick, precise work of tough summer feet. That means less time standing on three legs, less time bent over for me, so it's a win win all around! I can also get the job done one handed for those oldies who don't appreciate having their legs pulled laterally for me to hold their hoof between my knees. This also works great for minis who usually have the same issue. Faster trims = less time in this hot weather too 😁
