What in the name of all that’s holy is wrong with that owner?! This horse deserves so much better!!!

This is abuse. She is in so much pain. There is no excuse. If you own livestock you are responsible for the care and health of each and every one. Thank you for trying to help her.

How can anyone let this happen to a horse?. you are an excellent blacksmith, thank you for showing us your work.

What a monster who allowed this horse to get this way, shameful! Thank you for helping her

Open Gate, this mare remembers Renato. She's not fighting him hardly at all. And I don't think the other person who came, didn't take their time with her, like Renato does. That makes a huge difference to the horse. If you saw, when she took her foot away from Renato, as soon as he asked for it again, she was already lifting it up for him!! She TRUSTS Renato. Love from your friend, the Retired Paramedic and Horse Trainer in Ontario, Canada, Jenn 💖 🇨🇦

I saw a farrier on utube that makes hard soles for damaged hives. They go over the entire hoof just like a hoof. It protects the damaged hoof and is very strong and u can see through it. Even put a shoe on it. I can’t remember his name but that would help so many of these neglected hooves. ❤

That poor old girl. Look at that massive gash in her front right leg. How could anyone let her get this bad?

That's got to be one of the worst hoof conditions I've seen on a youtube video. I've watched quite a few donkey and cow videos, but this poor horse's foot looked especially painful. Thanks for helping the horse to have relief.❤

When i see a horse in this condition, it makes me both angry, and sad. There is no reason whatsoever for a horse to be in this shape! If the owner cant afford to have a Farrier and/or Vet treat this, then they shouldn't be an owner.

What a beautiful girl she is and see how Renatto is so patient with her 😊

Thank you for being so sensitive to this sensitive horse.

What about some therapeutic shoes? There's no way those hooves can hold together to heal without the additional support.

These hooves look greatly improved when he finished. They obviously still need work, but compared to what they were…👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I love how calm , gentle and respectful he is. From Central California.

THANK YOU FOR HELPING HER. WHY WOULD THE OWNER EVER LET HER HOOVES GET IN THAT SHAPE TO BEGIN WITH? CRUEL.

That poor baby. I am so happy that you could help her.

God bless you all for helping this poor horse❤❤ It breaks my heart to see what neglect & cruelty can do to both humans and animals.❤😊

God Bless Renato and you in these important messages and education

I thought this was a draft horse!!! Just seeing the pics, Very sad. Thanks Ranito for helping her feel better..

Amazing work! Half Veterinarian, half Farrier! Thank you for sharing.

Thank you Renato. ❤️❤️ God bless you.

Is it possible to epoxy or glue that crack to give it support as it grows out??

My horses get trimmed every six weeks. My animals come first. They love without asking for anything.

So happy you helped the horses ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦🇨🇦

Renato is a miracle worker!

So glad you guys were able to help this mare! Thank you!

This poor baby! She was in so much pain! Thank you so much for helping this beautiful mare get so much needed relief.

I love your videos. You give me hope in human kind. Thank you

Excellent job guys, I am sure this little mare feels more comfortable....thank you for caring and helping her

Renato is very good with the Mare and she has faith in him I hope that you are able too keep him employed for your horse's health ❣️

Your doing great work for all the animals in the area, very good work ❤

Wow thank you for helping this horse❤❤❤❤❤

Thank you Gentlemen for helping this poor girl! 🙏❤️🇦🇺🇧🇷

I believe she remembers him and his kindness.

God bless you people that help these beautiful animals. 🙏 ❤

I have seen a couple of horseshoe nails put in sideways across a crevice and then clinched to hold the crack closed. It worked well.

Owners should be charged with animal abuse

Love you guys. So smart, so caring, so professional.❤ Thank you for your kindness. Why did her feet get to this bad state -- so abusive to this poor animal. Glad you were able to make such a difference.

Buen trabajo Renato. Thank you for share. ❤❤❤

Bless you all!

Renato is very sweet and patient with this poor girl. She pulls back when she gets scared and he works very well with her hesitance.

You guys are so gentle and caring! Thank You!

Thank you

I think you farriers are a special kind of God's angels! It always amazes me watching these hoof catastrophe videos and seeing how guys like you can take such horrific hoof conditions and restore them to normal again. A great blessing to horses! 🙏

In the U.S. they will fill the bad cracks with a material like wood plastic filler or other synthetics to support the weakened hoof wall. The mare didn't seem spooked. just in pain! She trusted Renoldo. This is sad neglect and abuse! Thank you for what you do!

1 year working on mare as needed, and i bet Rinalto will have her good as new ❤️

😢 WHY DO THEY LET THESE POOR HORSES GET THIS BAD???

Wow is right. Renato's hands and forearms tell a story in scars. Good job getting that horse to lift it's feet for that preliminary clip.

Renato is doing a great job with this horse. I haven't seen earlier trims on this horse so I don't know what's been said before about it but it looks like she's foundered before and may have coffin bone rotation and would definitely benefit from some boots or casting, maybe even some wedged soles in the casts to relieve the pressure from the coffin bone on the sole and let it grow better. She has very clean and dry hooves which has probably helped keep thrush and white line disease at bay which is really good. Wishing the best for this mare amd hoping she will let you help her more and more every visit. Lovely to see Renato's patience with such a nervous horse, it will definitely help to build her trust.

Great video. Could have done without all the repetitive talking. I just turned the volume down. Love to see the improvement. Great job, Renato!

This really makes me 😡 mad to know people have no feelings for these beautiful animals. Thank you guys for being compassion enough to help her. Would love to see the follow up visit. ❤️🫶❤️ North Carolina 🇺🇸

Thank you for saving her

Thank you for helping her

Difficult! Job nicely done. Don't know if a vet could do any better. Hope they grow out right now!

This horse deserves so much better! ‘Oh, she’s not an important horse so it doesn’t matter.” How terrible for you to say that. Hurt is hurt. You and that elephant guy I just saw working on a shot animal must be brothers. Heartless!

Poor old horse ❤ 🐴

Poor baby. Thank you so much for helping her. It would be really great to get an update as it heals.

This was so bad. Thank God they're farriers like you that cares. Excellent job. It will take a while for her to heal. But she is on her way.

Angels

I've watched farriers before and to me, it looks like this horse hadn't been trimmed in months or longer.

How very sad!! Horse abuse for sure!!

Hello Open Gate. We are Okay too . Thank you for asking. God bless you for wonderful job you are doing. Love from Australia 🙏🙏🙏 🇦🇺 🇦🇺 🇦🇺 🇦🇺 🇦🇺

Oh god - that poor, poor horse !!!! Just horrific!!! I can’t hardly understand what this guy is saying, but he’s really cares about her!! 🙂🐴🌷🌱

Amazing what you did for her.

These animal owners should be in jail for this cruelty... they should never be allowed to own any animals again! Diplorable and very sad! I can only imagine the pain and suffering she goes through...sad...😢

i understand she’s a timid horse BUT that does not excuse neglecting her so severely.

I had a thoroughbred who had very bad hooves when he came to me so I picked rosehip, did halves of them and dried them in the sun. I took the shoes off and gave him rosehip in his food every day and when the spring came. I could put on shoes and them never fall off anymore.

Very good job guys.

That kind of work has to be hard on the back! Thank you for helping this poor animal!

She must be happy to get that relief from the flys

That cruel owner should be charged for this horrible abuse! Possibly he has got several other horses, he doesn't really care about. Mostly, these people argume they wouldn't have enough money for a proper treatment! I can't hear that anymore! In that case, those people shouldn't have any animals. And I ask myself, how do they treat their own family, when they need help. Also neglecting, cause there is no money or what???

Any type of livestock is “high maintenance “. If the owners are not prepared to do the right thing by these animals they should not own them. Some of the suffering seem in some of the videos on KZfaq is inexcusable. God’s creatures are not here to be neglected, abused and exploited. Thank you to those who care enough to help them and relieve their suffering. God bless you.

What the hell are these owners of horses thinking? these horses are in need of a vet, plus a new home?!

Renato é top❤

Pretty old red mare, she did very well. I’m sure she felt relief with that injury cleaned up. Great job, and I would love to see how she looks at the next trimming. (Also a nice change to not see a twitch being used.)

Nice tools...sharp...smart...thank you.

Thank you for caring to help this poor animal!!! ❤

Also, I think she knows she's injured, sick and had to call on the Dr. That "may" be helping her attitude -

Thankyou kind heart gosh that looks so very sore... Don't blame her being difficult, maybe sedation before repairing ???

Basic care...not asking too much to look after your horses hoofs, cant imagine how awful this horse was feeling. Get the owner to walk over sharp rocks in bare feet day in day out !! Great job 👏

That file takes off ridiculous amounts of hoof omg

Man why is no one calling the cops or something? This looks flat out like animal abuse. How... god.. it kills me to see that. That horse must be in SO MUCH pain. Whoever is responsible deserves to go to jail and be forbidden from owning any animals for the rest of their life. IDFC if that sounds extreme. That is an intelligent, feeling, sentient living being under their care. Horse or dog or human, doesn't matter, it's abuse. If I had seen that, I would've called the cops, idc.

Sa fi mândru de meseria ta. Este ceva nobil sa ingrijesti animale.

Very good job

Very nice repair.

Oh no, poor girl😢😢. 🎉🎉🎉 on working on her.

Poor thing 😢 I’m glad you can help it feel better ❤

Total neglect that took a long time to get bad like that

Really nice video 👌👌👌

I think I'd research a nice waterproof silicone caulk of sorts?

She is a very beautiful eyes and look at the spark in her eyes just mesmerising.

Thanks

No foot, no horse

Great job!

Renato ROCKS!!!!❤

is this the third video showing this mare's progress?

That wound has been like that for a long amount of time, no blood ,no swelling, a VET should attend this wound not a FARRIER, it won't attach with a bit hydrogen and antibiotic powder, will need surgery to sort this problem out......

If the owner would be a responsible person he would feed the horse properly ... it just needs some nutrients to support a decent growth of the hoofs. I cannot understand how cruel the livestock owners in South America are.

Omg that poor old girl!!! That must have hurt so much...

Well, it's an improvement, for looks only. More needs to be done. She needs a Softrider horse shoe or Soft ride boot to cover the hoof while cracks grow out and farrier can continue to work on keeping it trimmed down gradually until hoof is even in height with the other. But it is not fixed. None of her feet look very good, but those cracked front hooves are so bad! And sometimes a wound like that will cause a Veterinarian to have to put her down, depending on where it is & how deep it goes. I hope medicine was applied to that terrible wound, and also the hoof, (if you even bothered to clean it, do the frog, and check for abscess). I saw flies entering the cracked hoof, too. It means they smell underlying rot and infection. Poor horse. I worry she won't recover, and will suffer. Take her to an Animal Doctor for advice and medications, please! If you are proud of your work, you won't mind him/her to view it.
