From Joseph Santos.
“We were called into help every little girls favourite pony at this farm. He was having a little laminitis flare up.
We wanted to keep the application simple so the existing Farrier could carry this out after a couple rotations.
I chose a glue u shoe mini size 9.5. I installed this in a reverse application with rocker toe mechanics. Being that this is a reverse shoe application the rocker toe is actually the heels of the shoe. I removed some heel and a lot of dorsal toe to allow for better alignment and ease of break over. There were no blocks or sedation used in this process.
You can see in the before and after videos how quickly he became comfortable.
Please follow me on Facebook and feel free to PM me with any questions or more pictures of the process.”
