Grass season is here

Please don't let your ponies, donkeys and at risk horses experience this painful consequence. If grass is the only option, consider a grazing muzzle or sectioning it off with temporary fencing.

Edit: photo is showing the result of repeated laminitis causing inflammation and separation of the lamina (the attachment of the wall to the coffin bone within the hoof capsule) and subsequent founder. There are several causes of laminitis, high sugar content in grass is one of the main ones. Certain equines are more at risk than others.

Took an inch off these hooves! We did as much as the old girl’s arthritis would let us. One more trim and she will be back to normal 👍🏼
