Traditionally Forging And Welding A Therapeutic Horseshoe - Video

When a horse start getting older things start sagging including their suspension system. They start dropping in the fetlock(ankle) over the out side heel on the hind end and then that makes the problem worse. The crush the outside heel and the inside toe starts growing the most. We trim what we can and then can make up the rest in steel like this shoe. Gets some height back to the outside heel and gets their body position better and that helps better growth.
