Back in the '80's I had a Buckskin filly that her bones grew faster than her tendons because of too powerful a feed supplement. She wound up walking on the tips of her hooves. The shoer had to trim her heels rather sharply to get her feet to go flat again. One forehoof turned out to be clubbed. With corrective trimming he got that hoof as normal as he could. I couldn't tell which one had been the club foot because he did such a good job.

Years ago, I had a mare with a very substantial club foot. Her case was caused by her having one leg longer than the other. The farrier would very slightly lower the heel of the club foot, but left it mostly clubbed out of necessity. There was no way to make it “pretty”, given her varying leg lengths. The mare lived a long, happy life, club foot and all. She never went lame in the club foot, although she did have occasional issues with bruising in her opposing (flat) foot.

Edit to add this: Why do you burn the shoe imprint on the hoof? Is it to see where and how it’s going to sit before you actually commit to nailing it on? Just wondered if that’s right, as I’ve never had a farrier actually do that with my horses. It’s a great thing that there are people who are capable and willing to do these things to help animals heal. It’s so sad that we can’t explain to the horses that we are trying to help them, and that sometimes there is going to be some pain and discomfort in changing things and in order to help heal the right way.

So much better.
I don’t think I have ever seen a club foot on the hind. Usually on a front.
Edit to add this: Why do you burn the shoe imprint on the hoof? Is it to see where and how it’s going to sit before you actually commit to nailing it on? Just wondered if that’s right, as I’ve never had a farrier actually do that with my horses. It’s a great thing that there are people who are capable and willing to do these things to help animals heal. It’s so sad that we can’t explain to the horses that we are trying to help them, and that sometimes there is going to be some pain and discomfort in changing things and in order to help heal the right way.
I would never have thought that for a whole month, before going to bed, I would be watching some man fixing horses hooves. Google translate.
Mad interesting how the toe extension keeps his heel on the ground! I would’ve never thought of this solution to the problem
Does the horse need to wear over reach boots in front with this type of shoe to protect the front heels fro forging?
After an amazing trimming and shoeing job the hoof almost looks normal.
this shoe looks so cool!! i wonder how long it took to make the shoe?
👍🏼👍🏼
Until he put his foot down, i didn't understand what the toe extension was for. But i see now that as his foot hits the ground, the extension pushes his heel down. I guess that's why I never tried to do any corrective shoeing, because my brain just isn't on the level of a true farrier.
Would love to see how this horse did a few months on and a year later. I have a horse with from club foot. Is this good for all club foot horses?
Hey mate I liked your idea but as a thought why didn't you just jump up the toe of the shoe to double the Web,would have saved you welding the shoe and then cutting the heels. Or retaining the whole bar shoe with an extended toe. All three ideas do actually work but I do think that you have done a great job. Cheers mate glad to see that some people really care about their work. Thanks
How does limb length disparity impact your decisions on how to treat this condition?
