D/C Lameness In A Horse | Possible Abscess

🐎 Watch as I clean excess sole to see if there is evidence of an abscess. By how the horse was standing and not loading up on his heel there were clear signs of one.

"He was doing so much better the day after Dennis was out! Thank you again!"

💥 Enjoy! And HAPPY New Year to you and your horses!!

🐴 D/C Riding the Emotional Rebellious Horse Toward Partnership

Clear Mental Picture: For the horse to take the steps in proper body alignment and attitude.

🐎 This horse rode with the same rebellious attitude that he exhibited on the ground.
We got as far as we could get in this session, continuing would not have brought any more results. It's important to end the session at a place where the horse can process the learning and not to go over that point, and we can pick up where we left off in the next session.

✅ Watch how I work through the rebellion to nearly complete agreement.

🐴 D/C Foundered Horse | Preparation for Shoeing

Clear Mental Picture - Shoeing in a way to possibly give this foundered horse comfort and future soundness.

🐎 In this video, I walk through the process of preparing to shoe a foundered horse, focusing on how to provide comfort and future soundness. Proper planning is essential, as founder is a painful condition that requires careful consideration of the horse's needs.

✅ I take some time to gather my thoughts on this individual horse's situation, and using X-rays to assess the hoof structure helps me understand the severity of the founder and plan the shoeing approach in advance. This ensures the best possible outcome for the horse, relieving pressure and supporting recovery.
