So if reducing the toe is your number one priority because of what you see on an X ray,(disregarding the strength or weakness/ functionality of any other part of the hoof)why are so many horses that have immediate removal of the toe become more hypersensitive and or lame?
Form gains functionality but if the sole and connections are weak and the rest of the hoof is not strong or functional then just creating a shape will not create functionality on its own?
The hoof surely has to have a healing process/ mechanism and if you create hypersensitivity,does this not create an opportunity for excessive inflammation which can slow down healing processes or in some cases excess sensitivity creates excess pain/ stress which has a massive effect on healing and the gut via excess stress?
Yes I know that then you would say anti inflammatory drugs would be used but these also have a negative side and a limited effect?
So somewhere does common sense not apply, where you remove the triggers, allow the equine to settle (apply veterinary advised drugs to reduce excessive inflammation),wait until the equine is comfortable and starts to want to move and lift its hooves, then start the rebalancing process by working at the back of the hoof and gradually reinstating the strength of the bonding/ functionality and sensitivity of the hooves, with very regular work and as increase in movement through comfort starts to occur,so the gradual return of form happens without having to add additional stress or inflammation and be able to reduce the use of strong drugs as recovery/ healing mechanisms kick in?
The first phase usually has an equine that no matter what someone does to the hooves , does not want to move at all and needs time to if you like de-stress
The second phase would be the willingness to want to start to move,signaling the possibility to reduce drugs, so the equine can start to feel the safe movement without increasing inflammation, this usually comes alongside a more up and down shortened stride(which then avoids increasing concussive engagement with the ground) starts to increase blood flow and feeds the repair process between all parts of the recovering body.
The next stage is the willingness to move forward and then you start to see the full range of motion and function of the hooves needing to push the supply of nutrients to the tissues in repair and recovery of the bonds between the components of the hooves, usually the back hooves recovering quicker ( not always)so the stability of the body becomes stronger and the recovering hooves require more good form in order to instate more functionality and if given a good environment over surfaces that aid the comfort and willingness to move the hooves show signs of willingness to break down excessive tissues and install more strength and functionality.
Surely as you start to see the increase in functionality,strength and reduction in stress then is the time to help with the process with sympathetic intervention trimming.
The process is very individual and the steps towards recovery will vary on the several factors and strength of each individual character.
Over the years I have seen so many equines, worldwide recover and also falter in the recovery process, sometimes with jumping from one protocol to another, which never seems to help, stability and a willingness to work with the healing process of the individual is what I see bringing the most positive results.
Just a few thoughts 😊

Mister Aramis with his owner (dedicated friend) Minna.

Aramis is on a journey to rehab from a long period of kaviokuume (laminitis) when he was still living at his former owner. Minna has done a great job with him.❤️🐴

Arch of the foot/hoof.

Here a small food for thought. Do you know why we human have an arch under our feet? There are multiple functions for this.

Two of them are:
1. Arches are an amazing shock absorbing system to help the impact of landing the foot to the ground
2. Arches work as a spring mechanism in the take-off fase.

❗❗And you probably guessed it already: For a horse this works exactly the same way!💪👌

On the picture above you can see the overgrown part that I trimmed off a hoof. you can clearly see that the bottom of this hoofwall has the natural arch.(center green arrow)

The other two arrows show the natural roll of the heel and the toe that helps the hoof to have a most smooth landing and take-off while walking.

On a barefoot horse the functions of the arch work of course most optimally, but, also when a horse is on metal shoes this natural arch can be respected by following the natural curvatures of the hoof while preparing the horse for the shoes. A metal shoe does diminish the possibility for a hoof to roll smooth from heel to toe (landing to take-off)

Vuolukurssi kans David Landreville!

Check out the link and subscribe for an amazing course and learn about basic trimming and deep understanding about horse communication with this master ❤️🐴🐝

The course is in southern Finland (Inkoo, Granåsa hevostila) in September.

It will open your horizon about the overall understanding of hooves and horses in general!

Sadly enough I can not join myself this year😔

A beautiful day of trimming!☀️🐴🐴🐴

Trimming outside in a herd (lauma) is always very special to me and also for the horses I guess. It is beautiful to feel and see their curiosity in the trimming. I always feel very welcomed by them. Most of the horses are also much more relaxed in their natural environment than when they are enclosed by walls. I always let the other horses come close and they can come and see, smell and touch.❤️🐴☀️

This is Puh🐴

Puh is 25 yrs old and three years ago his owner thought that he would not make it to the end of the summer but then he got diagnosed with Cushing's disease and together with the prescribed medicine also his feeding plan was adjusted to fit his situation.

Now, three years later, Puh is running around like a little boy, his hoof problems have disappeared and also he is nowadays much more social in his lauma where he lives (24/7 outside)

Thanks to the daily care of .emilia ❤️❤️🐴

Thank you Emilia for taking such good care of this special boy, he has a special place in my heart☺️🐴

Today a 'flexible trimming location' ☺️☀️

The foal Täplä was on her way to her 'kesäloma' to a nice pasture and Tiikku of asked me if we could meet for a quick trim so that Täplä can run freely on fresh little hooves for her holiday!

Of course this was no problem☺️🐴

Hyvää kesäloma Täplälle!☀️🐴

Heippa ihmiset!
Muutama Kirstinän Tilan hevosista tarvisi juuri sitä omaa ihmistä, aktivaattoria, monipuolista liikuttelijaa ja rapsuttajaa eli jos haaveilet "omasta hevosesta" muutamana päivänä viikossa niin tässä voi olla sinun juttusi. Enää ei kuitenkaan vain kiertämään kenttää ja "kunnon treeniin" vaan juurikin siihen kaikkeen muuhun mitä oman hevosen kanssa voi tehdä, maastoiluun, ohjasajoon, maastakäsittelyyn, kävelylenkeille yms. Sinun ei välttämättä tarvitse olla kiinnostunut ratsastamisesta ollenkaan m***a muuten veri vetää tallille ja kivaan porukkaan.

Muutama poni olisi myös varattavissa esim perheen pienimpien hoitoponiksi ja ensiponiksi ratsastuksen alkutaipaleelle, vanhemmalla oltava hevostaustaa.

Vaadimme täysi-ikäisyyttä ja jo pidempää hevosenkäsittelytaustaa ja kykyä toimia itsenäisesti yllättävissäkin tilanteissa ja aina hevosta kuunnellen, "kovat otteet" on meillä kielletty. Meille ei kulje julkiset vaan tarvit oman auton. Iltaisin myös enemmän hulinaa tuntien vuoksi eli sopisi ihan parhaiten ihmiselle joka pääsee myös päivisin ja viikonloppuisin, arki-illatkaan eivät tietty ole poissuljetut.

Vuokrauksesta tehdään kirjallinen sopimus kk-veloituksella, riippuen käyntien määrästä ja mitä siihen sisältyy.
