This is the first time I've made a video on quarter crack repair. Here I explain how we alter the foot balance, change the loading, and finally make a very strong hoof repair. Contains an explanation of the types of quarter cracks, foot trimming protocol, preparing the crack for repair, mixing the glue and creating the patch, applying the patch to the crack, applying the heart bar to the foot.
Thank you to Carl Bettison at Stromsholm Farriers Supplies for organising and filming.
