SO helpful. My horse's hoof trimmer has been talking about developing heel first landing, but I haven't been able to see what she sees. I'm excited to try this slow-motion video method. Thanks!

Great educational video with perfect editing. More owners need to learn how to recognize this . It's a skill to train your eye to see it in real time . Helpful skill if you're out horse shopping and want to assess future long term soundness.

Thank you for watching! I agree, it's an important skill to have for horse owners and professionals alike.

Thanks so much Alicia; I have found it hard to assess in the past - I have worked with slow motion but stopping the motion as you did with an explanation really helps me see it better.

Filming the horse in slow motion is a great suggestion. However, it would’ve been even more educational for us had you explained what the corrective trim entailed.

For the example in this video I simply pulled her shoes and put her in boots. Every single horse is different and a trim that will help one with cripple another. You should never prescribe a trim to any horse without seeing it in person- you can cause a lot of damage that way.

@@TheHumbleHoof I get that, but you could have explained the treatment for that particular horse that you were working on. Then you can explain that this may not be the remedy for every horse.

@@Jim_Sanders. in this video, I did not trim the horse - the improved landing is simply by putting on the boots. There was no corrective trim, hence no need to explain it. In fact, Rockley Farm who rehabs navicular cases from toe first landings to heel first doesn't trim at all - they allow the horse to wear their own feet. When I pull shoes I simply roll the walls to prevent chipping and do not do a full trim. The difference in this video is ONLY the application of boots - NOT a trim, which is what I said in the video.

@@judymiller5154 my “initial trim” is nothing but rolling the wall to prevent chipping. Trim advice online would likely cripple your mare- and is VERY dangerous. I have years of free resources online including a webinar on “The Owners Role in Hoof Rehab” that will be helpful. 75% of the cases I see are fine with just diet adjustment and boots and pads as with this mare.
