Apparently donkeys also prefer their legs to be a bit lower when being picked out, same may be for mules though they are part horse so maybe it doesn’t get as weird for them.
I love that you didn't butcher his Frogs, as so many seem to do. I've trimmed numerous horses, but never any mules. The only hoof I can think that maaaay be sorta, kinda similar is a Standardbred??? No? So of course, I have questions. Lol. I notice you didn't remove much toe length or sole and you seemed to leave his bars alone. Is this just the way you trim or the way mules are trimmed in general. Thanks in advance. Cheers from Australia.
Golly! How do you keep your knives so sharp? Or is this a super knife that I need to know about? Also what did you use for a rubber cap on your hoof stand? I need to put something on mine.
These are glue on? Look like regular shoes with big clips to me. Where is the glue? I saw forging and nails, with a covering glued over the clips. What is purpose of that?
Any advice my appy needs shoes but when trimming his feet he pulled back so hard in the cross ties he was sitting down we are scared to do sedation bc he only had it when he got gelded I assume we will have him 1 yr in May and he has never had shoes on we don’t want him to freak out and hurt himself
I cant force God on you but know this, this life isn't forever but the life after this one is. But dont be deceived by the antichrist acting like Jesus, he will deceive many people but know this, Jesus will come with the clouds, Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen. I encourage you to become a true Christian. God loves you. 😄
@@loganeaton6103 this comment is no nonsense, Jesus loves you and He died for you, His love is amazing and He really does love you, please turn to Him. You have a choice where to go, punishment forever or paradise with God forever, choose wisely.

Double edged sword! Take too much and you have sore animal. Don’t take enough and you end up with foot that creeps forward. Toes get long which pulls heels under which caused them to underrun and collapse. Along with that a long toe you get stretching and weakening of the lamina which can cause wall separation. Honestly this young man did a good job! Theirs some tweaking on trim style that needs to happen. I suggest looking into and studying the E.L.P.O. Hoof trimming protocol as it helps one to really evaluate each foot as a individual and teaches one to properly balance the foot to the limb. In this case the hind toes are still a bit too long and are getting stretched forward. Heels could and should come back to the widest part of the frog. The mule is telling you that it’s uncomfortable in the hind end. Likely due to the excess toe. And if you look at the hairline of the RT front i believe you’ll notice a significant rise in the hairline at the medial toe quarter. This would indicate jamming at the toe pillar which should be relieved so that the whole foot can relax. Overall it’s a good cautious trim and is certainly better than the last pro I had in to do mine while off due to illness. Horse has negative palmar angle and had a massive toe wedge that needed to be cleared. Guy refused to even touch it. Stating that he was at live sole. Horse is now super sore. I took out the wedge 1/2” easily and made her a heck of a lot more comfortable. Will be taking more toe soon to really start reversing the NPA.
I want to know why do people let their horses feet get so bad like this I don't understand. My dad did his horses feet on the regular but only put shoes on when the horse we're going to do a show.
