Jet

10 yr old QH gelding

05-29-08

This was Jet's third trim.  He REALLY needs a White Lightening soak...his frogs are a mess, and his left front is very wry; we might see that straighten out faster once the bacterial/fungal issues are under control.  He was a bit sore; I expect that is because of the swiss cheese he has for frogs right now.  We've made some progress on imbalances in the LF and both hind feet.  His hoof capsule is very narrow and run forward, but his heels are not really underrun.  He has excellent concavity on all four feet.  I brought Jet's toes back as far as possible with a vertical cut, added a slight toe rocker, and relieved his quarters.
