Straight after taking his shoes off:
Near Fore:
Off Fore:
Off Hind (the boxiest foot):
Near Hind:
Off Fore:
And now, 6 months later:
You can see the big rings halfway down his hoof that show where the shoes came off. The hoof above the ring is a lot tighter, with less flare and no abscesses.
Off Fore - you can clearly see the flare below the big ring line showing where the shoe came off:
Near Fore: More concavity, frog is really prominent, still a bit to go at the toe
You can see the abscess hole below the line showing where the shoes came off:
And another one here on the off fore (the boxy one is still boxy but much improved):
So, huge changes and that's in a horse that we think didn't have shoes on for very long! His feet are much smaller, stronger and don't chip at all. Very proud. :)
