This is the first trim, so there's more improvements to come. The owner will treat the weakened/cracked hoof wall with an antifungal.

This is the 3rd post this week of horses we trim performing their jobs well. Why does this matter to me? Because watching horses sound, comfy, and succeeding means we're doing our job well. I'm proud of what they are accomplishing on the feet God gave them that we have been blessed to steward over. We also form friendships with the horses in our care and become a small part of the family.🥰 I'm so proud of each of them.

This horse is also preforming barefoot. Maintained every 6-8 weeks by my sis and colleague Tarah Lynn LaBarre

I want to take a moment and thank you all for being so quick to recommend Heart & Sole! Your recommendations here online and in person are so important to our growth. We appreciate it more than you know.... A funny side note. I've heard so many of you say, "Get the girls." That it's turned into a little slogan for us. 🤣🤣🤣 Thanks for trusting in us, supporting us, and following along with us! Love you all.

We had a visitor today... Fraggle Rock or Billy Ray 😂😂😂😂😂
He also took a 💩 on both of us.... so maybe another name would be better suited. 🤔

Progress pictures. Hoof rehab takes time & patience. This is why I take pictures. I actually forgot I took these pics when I started trimming this youngster. I happened to scroll past them and it stopped me in my tracks. I thought to myself, no way... That's not... Yup, yes that's him lol. It's easy to forget where we started sometimes. We're heading in the right direction!

First trim: Dec 2023
Follow up: June 2024
Trimmed on a 6 week schedule

Did you know…

An 1,100-pound horse needs to consume a 2-pound block each month just to meet minimum sodium requirements in moderate temps and in no work.

TWO POUNDS of a salt block every MONTH! For reference, the small rectangle salt blocks are 4lbs each.

Many horses are sodium deficient, which is concerning since sodium is important for nerve and muscle function as well as hydration.

By top dressing your horse’s feed with plain white loose salt at a rate of 1 tablespoon per 500lbs per day, you can help meet your horse’s daily sodium requirement.

This Is a very healthy, functional barefoot hoof. Beautiful even before the trim. She's maintained on a 6 week schedule.

Glue on shoe application

This sweet boy has navicular. This is a small bit of the glue on shoe process. I take my time to get everything just right. He's a good patient boy. About 2 hours later, he's all ready to go with his fancy shoes!

Welcome to Heart & Sole Natural Hoof Care 🐴❤️

****VIDEO UPDATE In this video, you'll see our past 3 visits. Starting with December 1st, 5 weeks later January 5th, and 6 weeks later February 16th. Great improvements in her level of comfort in just 11 weeks. We expect her to continue to improve. Foundered mare with severe rotation. The tip of the coffin bone was almost penerating the sole, see xray. The sole was very soft and sensitive to the slightest touch in that area. Euthanasia was suggested. What we did yesterday 2/17/24 See video to compare her previous levels of lameness with improvement from yesterday's visit (last clip in the video). She's still lame, but this is expected at this point in recovery. We're very happy with how she's doing. Attending vet: Dr. Susie Lutz. I cannot even begin to express how important it is to have a great vet & farrier team! I'm so grateful to have Dr.Susie Lutz's expertise & help. She's a wonderful vet & truly cares about the horses. Xrays were taken again today. We were so thrilled to see improved angels after the trim & good sole depth. Yes, there's more work to be done, this hoof is far from healthy. Healing takes time. We are doing our best to support her through the process of growing a new, better connected hoof capsule. That'll take approximately 8-12 months. I'm thanking God for this great progress! She was trimmed, balanced, antibacterial hoof soak completed, the bottom of her hoof medicated and hoof prepped for the shoe. She's in the versa grip glue, but placed normally this time (not backwards as previously done). She's in a new hoof package this cycle- I built vertical depth with glue, filled the space with super soft DIM, and casting over top. Her lameness improved dramatically this visit. See video.. She's happy and quality of life is good. She was cleared for a hour of daily turn out. Please keep praying for her healing! 🙏

Casting is a wrap that covers the hoof and hardens to form a protective "custom boot" for therapeutic & rehabilitation use. It's an excellent tool to help a horse transition to barefoot with more ease when other issues are present (such as thin soles, laminitis, navicular pain, etc.). It can also aide in corrective trimming, protecting the hoof, and allowing more sole growth.
