One Time Trim

Case "One Time Trim"

This mare was suffering from a serious case of "LOF" (lack of farrier) disease. Using the nippers and rasp, I removed her excessive toe length and the flaring on the lower third of her hoof wall, trimmed the laid over portion of her bars and beveled the bottom of her hooves back to the white line. The mare is a horse the owners always have had to sedate before her trim. She is flat footed, but trotted off happily into the pasture after her trim, which made me happy, too.
