Speaking of dogs. Farm dogs love farriers because dogs love when the horse's hooves get trimmed, it's like a delicacy to them.I'm surprised it didn't wear down naturally. What happens with wild horses?
Hunting dogs that are very active don't need their nails trimmed like house dogs do. All the running keeps them at the right length.
i got caught up in a facebook algorithm of hoof trimming and abscess draining a few months back . watched hundreds of these things .Agree. I can watch these all day. There is something cathartic about it.
I always hated holding t-bred horses while the farrier did their work. Super boring until the horse decides to bite you because it's bored too, or gets spooked and you have to try to keep a three-legged horse from hurting itself.
Only time I ever got kicked was doing that, although that was a passing horse that did it, and got spooked from the farrier's clang of the anvil, and nearly kicked my femur in half. Had a horseshoe-shaped bruise for three months after that.
They 100% have their own distinct personalities.I never got comfortable with it. Horses are like cats to me. I hate 99% of them and deeply loved the 1%.
