    My mini has little or no frog and hollow hooves in the front!!!!!

    No our vet are kind of hillbillies and don't care much and don't do a lot with horses and don't know about farriers around town. It's super hard living here because we don't have reliable people for horses

    My mini has little or no frog and hollow hooves in the front!!!!!

    He has corrected the big horses feet and yes they are perfect! We have had a professional horseman that took 6 horses to the world show, a judge, and a pro horse trainer look at them. He just can't seem to get hers right! She is the only one we have been concerned about. I know your trying to...

    My mini has little or no frog and hollow hooves in the front!!!!!

    Here's the frusterating thing that most of you don't have the issue of. He is the ONLY farrier within a 1 hour range of us that will come out and do the feet!! We called the only good farrier in town and he wont come out because he is booked (because he is the only good one) so I know most of...

    My mini has little or no frog and hollow hooves in the front!!!!!

    I don't know if he is licenced or not. He now does a good job on our big horses after we told him what we wanted. He was cutting the heel off so it didn't crack, but we had him leave more heel. This is the best we could do for now because we hit the bloodline all of the way around the hoof...

    My mini has little or no frog and hollow hooves in the front!!!!!

    The feet are obviously not perfect yet, he just took off all of the hoof until he hit the bloodline. At the next trim he will fix up what he needs to, because the blood will have gone back. I will show him the picture you posted for sure, but for now this is all that could be done by any...

    My mini has little or no frog and hollow hooves in the front!!!!!

    Ha ha I guess, we were afraid to say anything but he gladly and happily said sure and made them as best he could on the first trim! Weird situation but if it works, $8 is a lot better than $45 for a trim! thanks for your help! I just thought she had hollow hooves, I thought they looked long...

    I just wanted to say thank you.

    Quick question about setting up, in like local open shows and in 4h, do minis have to set up square or with their back legs farther back and their neck stretched?

    My mini has little or no frog and hollow hooves in the front!!!!!

    Well I guess we can stick to our $8 farrier!! He seemed to do a very nice job this time!

    My mini has little or no frog and hollow hooves in the front!!!!!

    Ok, we will try to fix that on the next trim! See our farrier knows how to cut feet right, but he doesn't unless you tell him you want them better. The same thing happened with our big horses, we just said we want you to leave more heel on and now they are beautiful. It's weird but it...

    My mini has little or no frog and hollow hooves in the front!!!!!

    Is it a good difference? Is there anything that should be done still? Should we do one more short trim to correct it or are they good now?

    My mini has little or no frog and hollow hooves in the front!!!!!

    sorry for the long wait on the pictures, it has been so busy around here and not enough down time to get them on the computer! But here are her new feet from the same farrier that made them look horrible! We just explained what we wanted, and he said sure and they look alot better than they...

    Showing geldings

    I had a mini gelding and he was so sweet and level headed! Never bit, kicked, nothing. He was just a sweetie! Then we sold him and got a mare and she is a sweetie too but she does have a little tiny attitude. Ha ha
