can't do too much trimming/filing not a whole lot of hoof wall there! nice
shape from the bottom though... I'm no expert really so I don't mean to
sound like I am... just know my own horses feet really well, LOL! Frog/balls
look a bit dry ... Slow growing feet huh? I can't get by without a trim
every 5 weeks. Maybe a hoof supplement would build some hoof wall and
sole... seems a little low in the pic and might be why the hoof wall is so
thin in that too much pressure is happening on that edge?. ..but I never
have used those so don't know anything about if they really work. Are you in
dry hard soil? (watch you'll say no!, LOL) or super sandy soil? If so, maybe
some water puddles (mud puddles in front of the watering troughs) might help
some... And if this horse is doing fine, then why try to fix what ain't
broke as they say???? my 2 cents... I really hate saying stuff cuz someone
will come back and say well, what about this. and really you do need to see
top, side and bottom.
