[blackbelly] hoof trimming ?

When using garden pruners as hoof trimmers... do you use the anvil kind? or the by-pass?
The anvil kind is used in the garden for dead wood... and cuts flat....one sharp blade. The by-pass kind is for green/new growth (in the garden) & works more like scissors, two sharp blades passing by each other.


I have both kinds... Fiskars... should I buy a pair just for hoof trimming? (will hoof trimming "ruin" my nice pruners?)

Thanks!
Diane
