I volunteer for a local farm animal rescue/sanctuary. A little more than a year ago, we took in an older pony from an auction about this size who had been severely neglected and had hooves curled up just like this. It has taken pretty much this whole year of regular corrective hoof trimming with a very knowledgeable farrier for his feet and body to more or less recover, and he still may never be perfect. After all, when their hooves are angled like that, especially for so long, it messes up their muscles, tendons, joints, etc., and they can be quite sore for a while - they have to essentially re-learn how to walk correctly. He kind of shuffled around at first, but he is doing much better now. Thank you for doing such a wonderful job with these ponies, and I'd be curious to see the progress they make. Hopefully they make a full recovery and are cared for properly the rest of their lives. It's so sad to see this kind of thing happen when it's preventable.

In many ways you are fortunate. At least these ponies were tame. I adopted an abandoned, abused pony about 3 years ago. It took more than two of those for me to get her to trust me enough to be able to catch her, much less work on her feet. Even a trip to the vet for sedation failed to stop her from kicking. Getting her used to being handled and having her feet worked on took a lot of effort but, with a lot of patience and commitment, I'm happy to say that things eventually worked out and I now have a fairly trusting, healthy pony with 4 good feet.

People buy them because they’re adorable only to find out they own a little terror and are afraid of it. Still, that’s no excuse for letting their feet get that bad. Sedatives were developed for a reason.

You need to understand where an animal originates from to care for it. The Shetland pony is a native breed of Isle of Shetland in Scotland. These ponies grow up in a harsh place. They have bushes and shrubs to eat move all the day over rocks and hard surfaces and in the winter months will grow and very thick coat as they lived in a very cold winds. My aunt would never allow her pony to graze on the lush green field in spring time but feed him all the hay he wanted from second cut. You have to make sure they see a farrier (Blacksmith) every 6 months for a trim. I think people buy them as a children's pony, which is okay, but they can have attitude so needs to be placed with an adult that has a horse back ground training. They need to see the vet annually to have their vaccines. PS these little gems were lightly sedated by a qualified vet to have their overgrown hooves done. God love the blacksmith ~ real back breaking job. 🙂

Aw, they must be so happy when you have sorted out those neglected hooves. I wonder if they need a little pain relief/anti inflammatory for a few days while things settle down? A neighbour has a Shetland pony, sometimes her toddler rides it but she has a tiny pony trap for it to pull, trotting around the lanes, so it needs shoes. I saw the blacksmith shoeing it, poor guy was bent double as the pony was so low down, he said he custom makes the shoes as no commercial manufacturer makes them so small.

@Linda Arbogast Horse person here--they probably brought in a vet to give them a light tranquilizer before they laid them down. The ponies are probably around 36" tall and weigh around 350 lbs, so two guys could lay them down. I had a Shetland and practically had to get on my knees to trim my pony. I couldn't get a farrier out to come out for one pony so I had to learn to trim him myself. It is a sin to let them get that long!!!! 🤨

I volunteer for a local farm animal rescue/sanctuary. A little more than a year ago, we took in an older pony from an auction about this size who had been severely neglected and had hooves curled up just like this. It has taken pretty much this whole year of regular corrective hoof trimming with a very knowledgeable farrier for his feet and body to more or less recover, and he still may never be perfect. After all, when their hooves are angled like that, especially for so long, it messes up their muscles, tendons, joints, etc., and they can be quite sore for a while - they have to essentially re-learn how to walk correctly. He kind of shuffled around at first, but he is doing much better now. Thank you for doing such a wonderful job with these ponies, and I'd be curious to see the progress they make.

They look a lot more comfortable. I'd love to see a follow up after another trimming or two.

It's people like you and others that selflessly and with tenacious spirit that give these beautiful animals their lives back. It's hard to comprehend that there are those pathetic losers called owners to allow this to happen. Behavior that goes beyond obtuse but downright *&^%$#!!!!! God bless ya'll for your work and devotion. It was obvious in the after photos?... Their disposition was plain to see, HAPPY HAPPY I would have given everything to have been there soothing and loving these little, " Three Musketeers" LOL :)
They are so adorable and sweet! How could they be so neglected? So terrible and Im so glad you help them!!! I love your channel

often because people get them with zero knowledge of horses or horsemanship They treat them like dogs and wind up with an intractable animal

Also because ponies aren’t always sweet. **Some** (not all) can be extremely temperamental and stubborn when they want to be. Same with miniature horses. People buy them because they’re adorable only to find out they own a little terror and are afraid of it. Still, that’s no excuse for letting their feet get that bad. Sedatives were developed for a reason.

@@lakeireland also people should do reasearch before getting an animal because it looks "cute". Same with dogs, people who have absolutely no idea about a breed like, for example, a husky will get one and then be surprised that it's loud and a master in escaping.

It always amazes how horses seem to be so good and trusting for the farrier. Even when it's clear they haven't seen one for a very long time.

Good farriers are worth more than gold and remaining a customer for the good of my horses was essential.\\ Twice a year I gave him a gift certificate for a massage at the same therapist I used for putting up with the horses which would not tolerate a jack.

Sweet little ponies who are, now, saved! Such hard work! Thank goodness a trained, skilled farrier did the hoof reconstruction! Thank you! 👏👍✨😍🙏❤
Those little ponies were so good, dont underestimate their power, they could make life difficult if they want to !
Poor guys! Thank you for helping them!
Three at once. Thanks for helping them. Twisted hooves, unable to balance well, that was a great idea to lay them down. Impressive work as usual. They all had a much better chance to balance, walk again.
You need to understand where an animal originates from to care for it. The Shetland pony is a native breed of Isle of Shetland in Scotland. These ponies grow up in a harsh place. They have bushes and shrubs to eat move all the day over rocks and hard surfaces and in the winter months will grow and very thick coat as they lived in a very cold winds. My aunt would never allow her pony to graze on the lush green field in spring time but feed him all the hay he wanted from second cut. You have to make sure they see a farrier (Blacksmith) every 6 months for a trim. I think people buy them as a children's pony, which is okay, but they can have attitude so needs to be placed with an adult that has a horse back ground training. They need to see the vet annually to have their vaccines. PS these little gems were lightly sedated by a qualified vet to have their overgrown hooves done. God love the blacksmith ~ real back breaking job. 🙂
Looks backbreaking! Great job caring for those cute guys! As my pony-loving sister taught me: The world is a happier place with ponies in it!!
The relief they must feel. It makes me happy to see them stand properly after a very long time. Good Job bringing normality into their lives.
Poor little fellas. I hope they feel better soon and going to rescue. You guys are terrific and we’re so gentle with them.

That’s a shame that you can’t get a farrier to come out maybe a local group of pony and horse owners near you can schedule a date together so it’s financially worthwhile for the farrier to make the trip

These poor babies omg, I just wanna hug them so tightly 😩🥲 how anyone could neglect such precious creatures is just beyond me. Thank you for helping to restore their hoof health so they don’t suffer anymore!
I'm guessing that new owners got you in to fix their hooves. People think that ponies are so cute and don't think of maintenance. You are the hero.
Oh those poor things! You've massively improved their quality of life. Thank you so much for your work!!
Bless you all for helping these adorable guys out. What kind of ******* do this to animals. Total neglect. Imagine the pain. Thank you on behalf of the ponies.
That's gotta' feel amazing- Like going from having Stilettos on 24-7 to wearing a nice pair of walking shoes. You guys do some excellent work.

Hooray for happy ponies! Those poor babies must have been in so much pain. You've literally saved their lives.
They looked so happy after you finished. The care and love you show the animals you work on is amazing. Thank God for the service you provide.
Those poor babies. They are so lucky to have you helping them
Our dogs loved chewing on the hoof material. Like candy to them!😉 enjoyed seeing how you handled the problem hoofs.
Aw, they must be so happy when you have sorted out those neglected hooves. I wonder if they need a little pain relief/anti inflammatory for a few days while things settle down? A neighbour has a Shetland pony, sometimes her toddler rides it but she has a tiny pony trap for it to pull, trotting around the lanes, so it needs shoes. I saw the blacksmith shoeing it, poor guy was bent double as the pony was so low down, he said he custom makes the shoes as no commercial manufacturer makes them so small.
Thank you for sharing your talent and teaching others to help the ponies. 🇺🇸🌹
Awesome job…the hooves looked pretty healthy other than terribly overgrown.
I’d love to see them “use” their newly cut hooves at the end of the videos. I bet these little ones all ran around like crazy. 🥰

I agree with the explanation part, I really enjoyed that they actually gave some explanation on what they were doing rather than just leaving the non-farrier people in the dark on what is going on exactly and how they know when to stop and stuff.

@Linda Arbogast Horse person here--they probably brought in a vet to give them a light tranquilizer before they laid them down. The ponies are probably around 36" tall and weigh around 350 lbs, so two guys could lay them down. I had a Shetland and practically had to get on my knees to trim my pony. I couldn't get a farrier out to come out for one pony so I had to learn to trim him myself. It is a sin to let them get that long!!!! 🤨

Great work! You saved these ponies from a lot of continued pain!

Special beds, massages, and pedicures…..AND they can walk normally for the first time in ages! Ponies must imagine they are super special for their spa day!
Beautiful. Thanks, brother.
I love the care you give your horses.
I've watched the ponies video three times now. I love to see their faces change from sad to glad.
I'd like to have seen these lovely ponies' reaction when they realised they could walk, trot and then RUN!
ooooh, all their little leg joints and tissues are gonna be feeling weird and achy as they adjust to the new angles and pressures, but the new alignment will be much more natural and healthy once they get thru that initial adjustment.
Very impressive. I know these little guys feel and can walk much, much better. 👍👍👍

Thank you so much for caring about these horses. They look so much better now. There needs to be an agency that charges animal abuse and cruelty. Don't give back to owners.

I've seen other extreme cases like these poor little guys and the farrier used a saw to take off most of the hoof. Is that maybe not such a good idea? Of course, they finish with the usual rasp and clean up the frog. That was so awesome to make them comfortable on the hay.
What a blessing for those little guys to have that painful burden gone. Thank you for helping them.
Amazing job!!! Thank you!! Precious babies deserved better from owners!!!
Thank you for your compassion for these ponies.
Such cute little guys , it's a shame they have not been looked after, glad they are getting the attention they need . Great job .
Happy New Year. I don't own a four legged friend, but to see animals happy like they are, is much joy. Thank You.
Poor little guys, I feel so bad for them. Good job guys, I bet it was such a relief to have there hoofs trimmed.
Horses, poneys, donkeys, mules.... need regular hoof care because in the wild they might run 30 miles a day, wearing their hooves down, but in a stall or small pasture they mostly just stand and the hoof doesn't wear down.
What a wonderful transformation for these beautiful little ponies ❤️
I love how you’re teaching these future farriers how to deal with these horror stories 😢 the poor babies hooves we’re so rotated, I cant even begin to imagine how uncomfortable and painful they were. Why do people even keep animals if they neglect them, it’s so frustrating. Keep doing an amazing job!!! ❤
Seeing these four ponies with such neglected hoof's I wanted to cry. Am really happy though to see time to care for these suffering animals has come - this mess did not grow over night or month. Hope the owner does not own them anymore. Thank you guys for doing this for them, they did not deserve what wasn't done for them.
i love that you made them comfortable
This brings back memories of two small ponies I had years ago which came to me with slippered hoofs, one so bad that my vet said that if he hadn’t known I was working on fixing her feet he would have put her down on the spot. I miss those ponies.
You guys are the best!!
No tiny horseshoes?! That’s what I was waiting for😉
That was heartbreaking at first but then turned amazing!!! Such adorable creatures should be looked after. Thank you Idaho Horseshoeing School!
So glad you decided to teach!!!! ❤️
Awwwww, poor little things. By their hooves and general appearance they are obviously being neglected. At least they’re not starving and have obviously being fed. I hope their circumstances become better. They’re adorable little things. Having their feet done should make them feel much better.
Thank you very much. 🐎🇨🇦❤😊
Could you show the whole way through on at least one foot? I’ve found myself having to clean up similar feet due to farriers not showing up for appointments. I really appreciate y’all posting these videos! It’s really helpful for me!
Nice job! I bet those three guys were much happier!
Wow. That second hoof. I closed my eyes for about 15 seconds and the difference was like night and day. The WAS a proper hoof under all that overgrowth.
Ponies looked scared at first, then they looked so happy.
And they’re such pretty pretty ponies…. I think they each deserve a handful of sugar cubes. Children get a sticker after they get a shot at the doctor. … A sweet carrot would be appropriate but… This was rough as sugar cube would be extra special ❤️
Aww poor babies .Thank you for making themnew again!!😇😇🤗🙂
This was FANTASTIC to watch!
You guys are amazing!
You are a kind, caring and exceptionally knowledgeable farrier. Thank you for helping these poor minis. It's terrible their owners are so uncaring. It's abuse. I wish the owners would have to walk in a "banana shaped shoe" so they would understand the pain and discomfort these minis have endured.
I have terrible foot problems. The way those little horses perked up once their feet were cut back back is very familiar to me, I get the same relief and hope when I go to the orthoticist. There is no hell quite like bad feet.
They look happier now!!!! Thanks for giving them a fresh start again. Sad they had bad and neglectful owners!!!
