Founder Treatments Using the PHWS tm

f1 f2

At the second level course in Ocala held Jan 5 - 9, 2008, KC was presented with a horse with chronic founder. X rays were available so KC was able to trim the foot to the proper form in one trim. In this photo we see the left foot has been trimmed, while the right foot shows the shape the feet were in.

Above right: shows the foot prior to trimming.

While trimming, KC used hoof testers to ensure that adequate sole thickness was present.

Once the feet were trimmed KC applied the new Perfect Hoof Wear™ to the foot. Another view showing the Perfect Hoof Wear™ being applied.
