How long have weve been doing this.. Was there a time we didnt do it and did horses run as long .. Or .. Whats up with all this

Wanna know this too ^

I don't need sleep I NEED ANSWERS

@@kelb0y9o20 Shoes are essential for hooves that are regularly in contact with asphalt floors or other rough surfaces. This is because their hooves can be damaged by uneven or hard ground, putting the animal at risk of stepping on objects that damage their natural hooves. in fact is like if the horse go to a jeweler's and say "put me some great fancy protection on my hoves homie" *cool music playing*

Horses in nature that are running on the grass do not need shoes, but working horses walking on roads with the load will damage their hoofs so they need shoes.

@ballsTV no dude, I'm literally a horse

Thats horse approved! ✅

@@stingybismark4976 im even more convinced now

@@jerry2848 they said they are not a furry anyway, what’s wrong with furrys?

Have literally seen 0 comments saying it hurts the horse

@ripmeep probably cuz they where reported or blocked by the persons channel.

It just really looks like it does lol but good to know it doesn't

Fr bc he’d be on the ground😂

​@@jaknasty6464 it's like getting your nails trimmed/filed, if the horse is in pain he ain't doing it right, and he'd know, because the horse would be kicking him 😂

FRR

regular horse training includes standing still for reshoeing, mane, tail and coat brushing. all broken horses will act similar to that.

​@@daniellastandridge3335they have personalities like we do, plenty good sport horses can be impatient and feisty during care. Some behave much like toddlers having a tantrum 😂

They have been around humans since they were born, so they have no fear of us. And people who scream bro ate douches.

​@@jean-lucpicard5510Who screamed bro tho ?

YO SAME AHAHAHA

Same 😂

Same. Why are we all here at 2 am?😂 lol

1 am but same! i have ridden a horse tho

No comments let me fix that 😂

I guess that hoof maintenance and horse shoes are much older than manicure. People just got too spoiled nowadays lol

@@Here_it_is_bro three comments

It's much more than a pedicure. It's for the health and function of everyday life!

It looks pretty too and it's their nails so it's manicure too 🎉

It not to hard I’ve been trimming my own horses hooves for 3 years you just gotta get the hang of it

если хорошо относиться к лошади и быть деликатным она будет покладистой меня больше пугают маленькие собаки. этих крысок не воспитывают из за размера. вот они в любой момент тяпнуть могут

It really isn't. For sure, if you've got a spoiled one, that hasn't been brought up right, or you don't treat them with respect, it can be quite... intresting, to say the least. But usually it's nothing to be afraid of at all. It's a teamwork between yourself and the horse, when it comes down to it.

as someone who's gotten the opportunity to be around horses and groom them, it's not so bad as long as you know what you're doing and where to stand. the most significant rule is you always stay on your feet and don't go directly behind the horse, since that's the most dangerous spot this guy is working while standing to the side of the horse and is still on his feet so he's really not in much danger

@@dzew за лапу тяпнут сзади.

I’ve experienced being under a horse before while cleaning their feet, it’s honestly not a bad experience!!

Not really. The horses are shoed from an early age, so they become accustom to having it done

​@@charleschuckfinley3304 Yeah, and it's remarkable how you can get a half ton prey animal to get accustomed to standing on one less leg while someone literally pries and hammers at their lifted foot for 15 minutes, and then let them repeat it three more times.

@@BrotherGreedthey’re domesticated to do that. It’s in their genes to do that

@@StarCrusier900 which is in turn remarkable that we accomplished that.

@@BrotherGreed you specifying that it's a prey animal as if they are more aggressive than predators in general lol

Sorry but I feel pain when my finger is cut hahahahaha

@@MarcusVinicius-vl3gs They said fingernails

Hey thanxx… I’ve been searching for this comment ❤

Also when the piping hot shoe is being fitted on it's hoof? That looked quite painful. (Please don't misunderstand, I genuinely don't know 😅)

@@Kimo0tJJ no it is put on the horse's hoof so it just feels a bit warm, still no pain dont worry

It's actually very unlikely for a horse to bring their hoof up like that! They do sometimes stomp their foot down and accidentally step on the farrier's foot though..

My man and you are so right

@@w.h.i.s.k the key word here is "unlikely". that implies that it HAS happened before, and it was not a pleasant feeling for the unlucky chap XD

@@Wolvenworks I know! I've seen it happen haha... It's just not very common!

The hoses seem to enjoy their hooves being tended.

Awesome thanks for sharing!!

@@noxcube6439 I can see how one could infer that from the KZfaq short, and maybe it’s possible for some farriers to find it peaceful. But my dad is a different animal lol. He did it because he didn’t have a formal education and had to leverage any trade work he could get into to make money for our family. He worked two jobs for years and years until landing a decent paying role at a power plant. I’m happy for him now, just wish he’d slow down and realize his worth isn’t determined by how much he works or how much money he makes. He’s getting old and needs to focus on living instead of working for once

@@haydenf1353 maybe tell him? Maybe no one has ever told him that before. Buy him flowers, too.

@@haydenf1353 take him for a dinner or a drink and have a talk to him about this maybe?

@@dorcasmalahlela2805 I have a parent like this. For sure, you can tell them, but very few of us can or do transform deeply driven facets of ourselves because someone said we should do things different.

right ! i was expecting all the mud scraping n stuff but they put a lil cap! thats so nice

the description says its a special frog support shoe, which will help stop the horse from getting bruised heels

I thought it was part of the nail for a moment and he had just peeled it off.

😂😂😂

Your comments so cute!

it does look very contacted at the top and the frog recessed

Wow.. You. are. ✨✨HoRsE sMaRt✨✨

He did twitch once, but yeah, he/she was great throughout the process😍

In the wild horses hooves are worn down by moving over various terrain. However when they run into bad enough issues that could make them go lame... that can easily spell the end for them. Horseshoes are to help support their weight, the weight of a human, and whatever else they might be carrying/hauling.

yall forgot the word it💀

Just say they or it lmao

She/he is just they/them *kinda* so there’s no issues with the person saying that.

👍

A horse that knows it can trust people will stand patiently, as it does not hurt. A nervous young horse needs reassurance, but learns quickly. Like trying to trim a young child’s fingernails lol

Is the horses hooves kinda like the nails of a human?

@@jenisismanuel9517 I'd hope so, if not then I would be fairly apprehensive to the idea of it not being painful, especially the part where he's just hammering nails into it

@@jenisismanuel9517 Yes. It’s the same material that forms the outer wall. The bottom of the hoof at the centre is a softer material known as the frog, to provide some shock absorption. Inside & above the frog is where tissue begins, the laminae that support the coffin bone. The exterior of the hoof must be kept in good condition to support the internal structure, but is not sensitive

@@averycheesypotato Also the frog helps circulation so its important it's able to touch the ground

Thanks!! Yes I do

J0oll,.lllll

Everyone suffers from anxiety disorder. You aren't alone.

Not everyone I do but I feel you bro

​@@TheGreatProphecy Not everyone, everyone gets anxious sometimes but anxiety disorder is completely different from that

I also suffer from clinical anxiety, and this was so anxiety inducing for me lol. The sharp squeaking of shaving off bits of the hoof, just the idea of part of the body being shaved off like that, even though I know it doesn't hurt and that it grows back, seeing something be nailed into an animal even though I know it's just in the hoof (the nails are so long!). I always click on this type of video thinking it must be cool to see, but it always makes me feel so anxious. Glad it calms you down though lol.

@@sophietheefr i always forget thats it dosent hurt and its basically like a big nail

From my own experience: my horses knew the ferrier's truck by sound and would lick his face the second they saw him. A good ferrier makes a happy horse for sure!

@@renblanchard631 awww that makes me so happy to hear

My horses seemed to associate our ferrier with a happy feeling. The part where they have to stand still isn't their favorite part but they tolerate it, but when they have 'all new feet' the seem to be perkier. We had a few dozen or more over the years for reasons, and those coming from a difficult/neglect background seemed to have a much more positive association than those that regularly had their hooves done from birth. :) I had a passion-project colt I worked with daily and the ferrier wouldn't attempt such a young horse. (They typically jump around all over/don't know how to stand.) It was a moment of immense pride when my 8-10 month old colt took 'best horse I have ever worked with in my career' title for being relaxed and not moving a muscle! He didn't fidget once!!

Grad you enjoyed

That’s great to hear!!

I am an Iraqi and I do not care about traveling

@@X2BOOSokay?

let me add its not a natural human pose , its literally back breaking. and all it takes is on cranky horse, or one thats had a previous bad experience and they make your life hard

I'm only halfway through the video, and this is my first time seeing this type of shoe so I might be wrong, but I believe this is a padded shoe. Most horseshoes as I'm sure you might have seen, are only the medal bit around the outside. Without the big plasticy bit covering the bottom of the hoof. The horse hoof has the outer rim, what you see the medal shoe being attached to and supporting. Then it hollows out sorta in the middle, the back (where the shoe is open) is thinner than in the front, as you can see. The triangle shaped part on the underside is called the frog (might be spelled differently, I'm not sure) it is a fleshy muscle I think? You have to be careful with it, it can be sensitive especially with a horse with foot issues. Some horses don't even really have frogs, some have huge frogs. All hooves are different. There's tons of diagrams on hooves, I've learned a lot from model horses and the painting/customization of them (I was in the sphere and did the work for several years) painting depth onto a mostly flat hoof is super fun! Getting to make it look like a frog and everything, really cool. Anyway, my info might not be the most accurate, I was hyperfixated on horses years ago but got bored of it all and forgot a lot of info so take what I say with a grain of salt! Hope this helped understand a bit better, if you read this all lol

Are they supposed to scrape off like that?

@@hueytran9691 yes! What part did you mean?

@@heyits_cat8966 the white

@@hueytran9691 I assume you mean the white that got uncovered when he started cutting the hoof? After taking the shoe off Yes, he's just trimming up the hoof, can't let em grow too long!

Thanks so much!! 🙏🏼

They're not all like that, horses are fight or flight animals & if they get upset they can be proper mongrels. The average retirement age for a farrier is only 36 years old & many workplace accident insurance companies won't even give farriers a policy because it's deemed too high risk to be worth their while & the companies that do give them a policy want $2k-3k a year & you have to be hurt for more than 6 weeks before the insurance company starts paying you a wage & when you do start getting paid it's only $200 a week. Many farriers just put the money they would normally give towards an accident insurance company policy & put it in a separate bank account & then they just use those funds for if (when) they get hurt.

Because they don't have nerves in the hooves

Happy hear this

Agreed. There's something very soothing about this.

One without fear I would assume

It’s basic training for a horse to stand still when getting its hoofs done

dogs are always so dramatic 😂 its so easy to clip too short with dogs bc of all their snatching lol

Dogs do better with all grooming if all aspects are started when they are young puppies and done very regularly, plus done by their owner, not a groomer.
