My greatest achievement in horse training? 1966. I got Toby to stand quietly and get his hooves cared for. All four of them. It doesn't sound like much--but it impressed the Hell out of our veterinarian. (He had to heavily sedate Toby, and then throw him on his side before the farrier could get near him) I was 12 years old. I decided to take Toby out to our front yard and let him graze the clover. I did not tie him up. He could see everything. I persistently picked up his right foreleg. Toby snorted fiercely and tried striking me. Twice. I told him, "Cut it out. I get done and you can graze in peace." I have never seen a horse break out in a lather and snort like that. But, I guess I was successful because Toby didn't really want to hurt me. It took two weeks of doing this every day.

This is by far the best explanation and description that I have ever seen regarding the position of a horses body and what it takes as a farrier and a handler working together for a successful outcome! My father is close to retirement age and has been working on horses hooves doing corrective shoeing for over 30 years now. My love of horses and the family business put me in the prime position to help support my father while working on horses that were either problematic or experiencing physical limitations. Not entirely sure where you guys are located however either way your clientele are lucky to have you guys!!

Thank you so much for this. Trimming a hoof correctly based on good hoof anatomy is nearly impossible if you cant handle the hoof in the first place. I am starting to do my own horses and this video has taught me SO MUCH of what I am doing wrong and how to do it right. I owe all of my horses apologies now.

I like your way with the horse. Do you ever use a hoof Jack?

Having been a professional farrier for nearly 40 years, I've come to the conclusion that hoof stands can become a crutch, often leading to back strain and poor positioning under the horse. I actually produced a stand that sold very well. The trick was teaching people when and how to use it properly.

@@KCLapierre for the last 15 years it has worked well for me trimming professionally. I never have back pain from trimming and there's no way my knees can take the strain of a horse pulling . To each his own , whatever makes the job easier and safer

I do not use the hoof jack, but on occasion I will use the Back Jack. In teaching how to achieve balance, it is important that the trimmer be directly over the hoof, this is more difficult to achieve when using a hoof stand.

What do you suggest, please, to do with my yearling filly who keeps scooping with her front hooves as she doesn’t want me to hold it up yet?

What do you suggest for a horse that brings the hind leg way up when you signal him to lift it, then won't relax it. Almost like he wants to kick out.

I will often work through a stretching routine with these horses. Take the time to relax the horse.

A gentle suggestion: since you're teaching us how to handle our horse, it would be good to not loop the lead rope around your hand.

Indeed a nervous habit that I mention in each of those videos where this occurs. Thank you for the comment.
