I all ready got a shirt I recommend them so much

Sheldon does a great job and Will (the mini) has never been sore after a trim which can happen. We are fortunate to have such a great farrier. Great video Sheldon! See you in 8 weeks.

I'm someone who always likes learning, so I found the part about the anatomy very interesting. I wouldn't mind seeing more of stuff like that in the future videos :)

I really enjoyed the anatomy section of the video, made me understand what you were doing a lot more with this pony!

Bruh why is tgus so addictive everything about this video is so wholesome *I CANT STOP WATCHING* *HELP*

please go into anatomy on special cases like this more

Insomnia from Edmonton, Alberta here again. As a city girl that knows very little about horses, the anatomy info with the x-ray really helped me understand what you were talking about and why something needs to be done.

I loved this video!! It was amazing how you broke this down so a non-horse person could likely understand. Cheers from Washington state!

Thanks for the dialogue and the X-ray to help us visualize what's going on. My friend had a horse that foundered and the vet said to put him down but the farrier worked for over a year to help him and eventually with lots of care he was able to walk just fine. I'll always remember that.

Your passion is clear to anyone watching, quality content!!

Two farriers used to come through where I work everyday for their coffee and now I wish I would have asked them more questions about their trade. You make it seem very interesting and so cool. Thanks for the videos

OH,,,And Thank you for Addressing the Mystical Miracle trim..In one Gurus Book,I saw where he showed pics of a severely distorted foot due to founder..He then showed a near perfect foot and claimed it was done with just 1 trim and that the horse walked off perfectly sound..... When i read it,i literally yelled BULLSHIT!!!!!

NW Iowa. I have a mare that has stretched lamini on her front left. And struggle keeping that hoof in shape. I really learned a lot with the x-ray’s showing the P-3 and the wall. Just wanted to say thank you for taking time to make this and share it. Been watching some of your videos and stumbled on to this one today. Great videos. Thanks again

I really appreciated the anatomy lesson. I went down a rabbit hole of watchng hours of hoof triming videos and still had no idea what the farriers were refering too when they said a horse has laminitis. Can say I'm thoroughly addicted to the sound of the clippers chomping down on hoof walls.

Sheldon, the sexiest voice in the farrier world! Its clear your 4 legged clients appreciate your efforts, so keep up the great work :)

Great information. Very helpful, I have a chronic laminitis sufferer and really appreciate your information. We live in New Zealand, have 4 horses and 2 donkey's. Thank you again and the Lord's blessing this is a real ministry he has blessed you with - he cares for his animals and their welfare.

I’ve said it elsewhere, but I’m in West “by God” Virginia and so pleased to see the thought and care which goes into what you do for these animals. We choose to take them into our care and, as such, we are obligated for their welfare. It’s plain to see that this is all no mere paycheck to you and I appreciate the theory and anatomy you’ve included.

Poor pony. Glad you helped him you're doing good things in this world

When I see the before hooves, I imagine it feels like you're walking with something in your shoe that causes pressure and pain. I bet they feel so good after you're done!

I love hearing about the anatomy. I can really start to appreciate the expertise involved with being a farrier. Thanks for the education.

From Pa. Your explanations are greatly appreciated. Learning is very important to all who have horses. Thank you.

I, for one, appreciate the anatomy lesson. Learning more about horses is the reason I'm here!

You are going to be an amazing large animal veterinarian. I've been a large / small / extoics animal veterinarian technician since I was 18 and I'm 30 now. Not many people I'd say too that if you ever needed experience id be proud to work for ya, but you are most definitely one of those I'd say that too. Your passion alone is a beautiful thing to watch you share here with all, good luck in your studies please don't ever give up.

I like that you show & tell what you are talking about.

I don't have horses or ponies, but am addicted to your channel. The explanations are phenomenal. I am from Israel.

Love the anatomy piece. I've known of it but never understood founder to this degree.

That x-ray helped greatly! I also enjoyed learning more about the anatomy!

Hey Sheldon, I lived in Pullman for 8 years. I did love it. Your videos are my new zen. You're doing a great job. Thank you for keeping the profession of farriers alive.

Anatomy and the xray are super beneficial! Thank you for the solid information!

Hi, just wanted to tell you that I really appreciate your videos from France and that I like it when you explain what you're doing, I think it's interesting and instructive. Anyway, continue like this, I love it.

Its so amusing listening to you talking about the hordes with such love, keep up the good work

THIS WAS THE MOST INFORMATIVE VIDEO I’VE SEE!!! Thank you!! Thank you for going into such detail!

So glad you could help this sweetheart 💕. You are great at your profession. So glad the owners found you💕

Love to see how the anatomy of the foot informs what you do. The mechanics of all this has always confused me (upstate NY)

This video is so helpful! No one has ever been able to explain founder or laminitis so that I could understand until now. Thank you so much!

For 2 years I have been to every webinar, every website, called every farrier I know in Southern Minnesota and for the first time in 2 years, I finally understand a small portion of the anatomical design of the hoof, the whys and maybe even feel a small amount more comfortable treating this condition myself. My mini has dealt with my learning curve and we have made great strides in her wellness back from laminitis, but because of the lack of competent farriers and equine vets in my area, we went with the lesser of those evils and do the best we can with the info we can find. Not a great situation, but I so appreciate a video like this, it boosts my self esteem greatly to know we can keep heading the way we have been. Thank you again!

My horse is getting shoes put on her front hooves tomorrow and I keep watching your videos to see how you do it and you are amazing your videos are satisfying i have been watching your videos on and off today😭😊

That was an absolute joy to watch Sheldon! I grew up around horses in the mountains of coastal Northern California, but never had much education on equines. I always wonder why you do each step of a hoof trim. Getting clear information with explanation that makes sense was awesome! Thank you for the work you put into making these videos. I enjoy them whole heartedly. Natalie - San Diego CA

Fabulous video--thank you! I'm trimming my laminitic pony, so your descriptions, lines that you draw, x-rays--are all extremely helpful. I'm not a professional, so all aspects of your videos are so helpful. Thank you very much for putting this out there!

Your anatomy explanations are outstanding.....Also any animals and owners that are lucky enough to be in your care are very fortunate

I'm from Gettysburg, Pennsylvania and I think its real swell how you're helping these ponies out

This is THE best description of Laminitis I've seen and the x-ray and your walk-through description were spot on. Thank you for taking the time

Very helpful....education is a good thing...you can never have too much. Thank you for taking the time and effort to make these videos.

Loved the anatomy explanation! I work in a stable but haven't had many chances to learn about farrier work, and you explain everything so well. Very satisfying to see the hooves looking trim and proper!

Im always happy and cant wait to see a new Video from you 😍 thank you so much for helping this little cupcake 🙏🏼 you are a good soul, sheldon.. And pretty amazing Video like always

Here from Virginia! It's amazing to read through these comments and see people across the world enjoying your videos

Please keep making these videos! I've been riding English for 4 years now and I still find it very interesting.

Hey, from Australia here. Just started learning to be a farrier and definitely love the video, the lines and the x-rays are a great idea, my trainer has been showing me the same things and it helps a lot!

Yes! I love the anatomy sections! Also Ellensburg Washington!

I agree your trade is completely new to me and I enjoy seeing the work being put in. That being said the it is your work and the insight of your experiences help in understanding of what's happening. Knowledge is greatly appreciated.

I'm in NC and I really enjoy watching you work as well as your explanations/commentaries. It enables me to understand what and why your work changes from one animal to the next. Thank you!

I'm from Denver!! And the anatomy part is cool it lends alot of info to people who dont know what your talking about for example like me lol

So my 5 year old said the foundered hoof looked like a ballet dancer. 🥰 i like the information

Best explanation I have seen of dealing with laminitis- you are a natural teacher

Yes, I like the addition of the x-rays, the colored lines, the and the explanations

Watching from England 😁... Love the explanation here, made loads of sense, fascinating!! Love these videos 👍🤗

Personally, I wouldn't mind if each video you posted twice. And one was you explaining what was going on and showing off the anatomy and everything, and the other video was just the horseshoeing or the nail trim.

Watching from VA. Very informative and I love it. After 40 yrs in the horse world, I'm still always learning

You are the only Sheldon that I’ve ever heard of besides my Brother! I Love watching your videos! You’re VERY GOOD at what you do!

Love the anatomy! I have been trimming my own horses for years and had to start shoeing mine also about a year ago, because it was so hard to get a good farrier to come out where I live. Could you please make a video on the tools you use, why, and also the difference between the quality of tools. And also how you keep your hoof knives so sharpe? Thanks so much!

Hey sheldo , just a quick question, probably has nothing to do with this mini but would you shoe a horse with a club foot similar to a laminitic horse? Since club footed will always grow lost of heel and I know banana shoes work well for those but will shoe always take heels down and nip out the toe like you do in this videos?

As a future vet who has never done trimming, this video and explanation was very helpful for getting an idea of the process that goes into the corrective trimming and a visual for how and what I need to communicate with farriers in the future. Thanks for sharing!

We starting watching age learning because of the way you explained what you were doing. The anatomy lesson was a GREAT help. I'm not a horse person but this really helps explain what the horse people I know are talking about.

"Hi my name is Sheldon" Me: "Hiiii Sheldon! My name is Kate :D". The terminology is still pretty confusing for me since I've never even ridden a horse. Maybe it would help if you compared the medical terms with things in everyday life?

It's so satisfying seeing the bottom hoof turn black to white. It just shows you that they do need trimming and it looks so satisfying watching you do it. Keep up the great work and keep the videos coming dude!

Loved the xrays and anatomy lesson! Even an old horsewoman like me totally forgets the inside of the hoof!👍

Learning the mechanics of the hoof is always useful. You know what you're watching then.

Absolutely loved the explanation. Now I understand what it all means. Thank you!!!

I love all the anatomy info in your videos. My son and I watch a KZfaq video as part of bedtime routine, I love when we both learn something!

Thank you for teaching while you trim. I'm always looking to better myself as a farrier and unfortunately youtube is the best tool I have.

Thank You For ALL your help! Ontario, Canada

As a person who doesn't know about horses and whose English is a second language I really liked the anatomy part to get a better understanding of what you were talking about on this particular case. Thanks for the video

I know 2 things about horses. They have a soft nose and 4 legs. I find these videos so interesting. Thank you! 🧡

I supremely appreciate the fact that you thoroughly explain. Finding farriers that take the time to educate is rare. Finding farriers that also take their time is a blessing. I've had farriers that rush and I won't work with them. I need a farrier that will bond with my horses. Thank you for working with these ponies and this owner.

Hello guys!!! Thanks so much, for your a work 🥰!!! You are sunshine!!!🌞 Ukraine!🐴🐎🐴

I am always amazed by the care and Attention you show to every animal and the pure skill you have. keep doing what your doing man amazing respect from Cardiff wales in the the U.K. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇬🇧

I love watching you explain things I get to learn new things for my wife’s horses she wants to get in the future

Greetings from 🇨🇦 Sheldon. Some people have a natural gift for speaking and teaching. You’re good at both. Thanks for all of your back breaking work and dedication to your profession.

I am from North New Jersey. We actually have a lot of horses in New Jersey, but I'm from the East side which is much more Urban, so horseshoeing and all this anatomy is new for me! Love it'

The anatomy really helps me understand what's going on inside that is creating the problem outside!

The x-Rays and extra explanations are very helpful to understand what you are doing and why. I own a horse since two years and I learned a lot about hooves and horseshoeing from your videos. I live on the French riviera. Thank you!

Studying veterinary medicine myself, I found this super interesting and this helped me understand so much better! thank you

Lines and arrow very helpful along with explanation. Thank 3

Really good video here. I'm not educated on equine hooves problems, But really good explanation and I will leave that up to you. The trim job looks good and clean and as long as the ponies feel better, I'm happy. I really enjoy your videos helping animals.

FL here. I really like how you showed the anatomy and then explained how you were addressing it. Also appreciate your chill vibe. I don't always need someones face yammering at me on every video. 😆

Your anatomy lesson helps a lot to understand laminitis.

I found this video and it's content interesting and informative. The work you do is more than just nipping and filing, thought and anatomy of the animals foot is key to providing the animal with the care it needs. Thank you for taking the time to teach those of us who are not familiar with the care of larger animals.

What an incredible explanation on laminitis. Informative and genuinely enjoyable to listen and learn.

I can just watch you work all day.

Really enjoy learning more about the reason behind the different shapes you do for different animals and conditions

My little Shetland has laminitis, it's the worse thing when he has an 'attack' and he gets really sore, luckily my amazing farrier is so good with him and always does the best for him and he's rearly sore after a trim, it just shows what a good farrier can do 😊 and you look like once of the best 😊 especially with being how gental you are being 😊❤️

Thanks for easing the boredom Sheldon. What you do is fascinating!

Yeah, the anatomy was great. Love these videos. 💜🐱👍

Your videos are awesome and the part where you explain the anatomy and the process of actually helping the animal and how are really interesting

Yes! Please continue with the anatomy. I was searching for information on "exactly what is laminitis and what can be done for it?" Very informative. Very educational. Thank You 🙏

Always enjoy your videos. Like it that you talk as you work.🐴🐴🐴🐴🙂🙂🙂

Hi from Western Australia. I spent all day watching videos on hoof trimming and didn't find any that left me feeling satisfactorily informed until I found your excellent video. Thank you. Now I feel confident that I am caring appropriately for my two minis that struggled with laminitis a few years ago. All of the other videos made it look simple, but trimming my two is not simple. Your video showed hooves that are very similar to my horses, though the sisters are only a year apart in age (older one turns 18 this year), their hooves are very different in size and shape, one is much more difficult to trim than the other.

Love how u explain and show pictures of what u r doing!

Love the informational part of the video! Nice to have 'normal' trims and shoeing with these special cases mixed in!
