This horse is an older mare that is used for trail riding. I have been working on her hooves for around 8 months now. She has been on an 8 week cycle which I think was too long to get ahead of the pathologies seen in the hoof. So she is now on a 6 week schedule and I am hoping to see more improvements.
She is currently comfortable and sound but I would like the depth in the back of her hoof to improve and the frogs to be more robust and less thrushy. I think the reason that this horse grows such huge bars is because she has a weak underdeveloped heal. As the heals have improved she has started to grow less bar.
If you have any comments or questions please feel free to leave them below! I will do my best to respond and answer them!
