1st time!!! Baby Horse’s First Having Her Feet Trimmed!!! Very Important day In Her Life!

[@aileen694]

Thanks for the clear demonstration, and especially for the two gentlemen's consideration of the sensitivity of horses!

[@markomoilanen3129]

My father said that the training of a young horse for a farrier starts with tapping the hooves gently so that the horse gets used to handling them.

[@allenguffey9370]

Love it! All of it! And the horse and customer had great stories to boot!

[@vincentdinapoli9399]

Pleasure to watch...So much better than watching the disgusting DAILY news in America today!

[@louievdo7631]

I love the way you guys explain and do everything and the reasons why you're doing it very enjoyable

[@gerrycoleman7290]

It would be helpful to properly prepare the little one for the trimming process beforehand.

[@melanisticmandalorian]

Great job explaining everything. Good job.

[@olsenequinecjf]

Never sedated a young horse… proper prep is needed. Foot training starts day 2.

[@tnit7554]

👍👍

[@lisavandyke8833]

I so agree! No need to sedate the baby just work and train them

[@jodibrandl7522]

As I always say... you get what you pay for. If you go cheap with your purchase (whatever it may be) you'll receive cheap! Beautiful horse too ❤️ 😍 ♥️!!!

[@314simplebtich]

If I were a horse, I'd want to come to you to do my pedicure. 😊❤

[@c.h.r.i.s.t.i.n]

The best advice I have for assisting you in you first-time hoof- care on any animal is to let them observe another more experienced horse have their hooves tended to do they have a clue.

[@erikatowle8695]

If you went slow & reassured her during the process would sedation still be needed?

[@lieke9460]

No it wouldn't

[@olsenequinecjf]

Pretty bold statement for not being there,

[@erikatowle8695]

@@olsenequinecjf no hate intended just an honest question . I love that you go slow with them & place the hooves down gently

[@olsenequinecjf]

Sorry that wasn’t meant for you. Yes it could have been done without dorm gel. The point was is that the first trim is so important to gaining trust and confidence that sedation makes all of it easier. If the owner would have had her better prepared for the farrier it would have been better. They still did a good job with her it’s just one of those things that take a lot of time. We trim all of our babies without sedation. The other point is that it’s not the farriers job to do your homework. Meaning working with your horse. Sedation makes it easier on your farrier because they don’t have time to spend hours trimming one horse.

[@nljh]

Sedation haters when a horse needs it and doesnt have the handling it has to be done for the horse's and humans safety. You can train whenever but sometimes hoove's health go first and it's better if they feel relaxed to not have a bad association, simple as.

[@hilarylazard7554]

Why is she sedated? Never heard of sedating a horse to trim its hooves. Not proper training before.

[@tinydancer7426]

He explained why the owner gave her light sedation.

[@dingo5985]

This is not what sedation is for but OK

[@suecox907]

Can't see thing. No picture. Only audio

[@LilLoo226]

Lovely filly. I only wish you had spent more time acclimating her to the process instead of relying on sedation.

[@MrEst1953]

I had a very good friend, he was a Vet . He told me the only person more stupid than a horse is the person who gets on it's back..
