A RIVER Of ROCKS Flow From This Hoof — Transcript

Full transcript

1. 0:00when I began working on this hoof it was
2. 0:02obvious I was dealing with rocks but I
3. 0:04couldn't imagine just how many rocks
4. 0:06were below the surface welcome back to
5. 0:10Nate the hoof
6. 0:21guy once one rock makes its way into the
7. 0:24white line it's easy for others to
8. 0:26follow and they continue to work their
9. 0:28way underneath that that sole until they
10. 0:31have underrun it that's what's happened
11. 0:33here I'm going to use my grinder here to
12. 0:35give us a bigger access point to get all
13. 0:37of these rocks out of
14. 0:58there
15. 1:11well there's two but there's many more
16. 1:14to
17. 1:28come every time I think I've got it
18. 1:30flushed out more rocks will reveal
19. 1:40themselves as I continue to trim I can
20. 1:42feel more coming in contact with my
21. 1:44knife
22. 1:53blade and once again it's another
23. 1:56sizable
24. 1:58Rock
25. 2:14maybe this rinse will finally do it but
26. 2:17I think we all know that is not the
27. 2:28case
28. 3:13at this point I was starting to feel
29. 3:14like I was never going to get to the end
30. 3:16of
31. 3:28them
32. 3:39now I'll bet you're thinking to yourself
33. 3:40those rocks have got to be doing a
34. 3:42number on those hoof knives and they do
35. 3:45but there's really no way around that
36. 3:47and that's why I carry multiple knives
37. 3:49with me each day dealing with rocks and
38. 3:51sand and things like that they're going
39. 3:53to get dull just switch those knives up
40. 3:55and move
41. 3:58on
42. 4:12now even though this hoof was absolutely
43. 4:14packed full of rocks they really weren't
44. 4:17the problem here likely what had
45. 4:18happened is there was a white line issue
46. 4:20back sometime and these rocks were able
47. 4:22to find that defect and work their way
48. 4:24all the way in there really for the most
49. 4:27part this hoof is sound there is a new
50. 4:29layer of hoof horn there there was just
51. 4:31one small area of openness so we did put
52. 4:34a block on that other claw and then we
53. 4:36clean this area out really well and
54. 4:38treated that one small little area with
55. 4:41some salicylic acid and gave her a wrap
56. 4:43and that was going to be it just a
57. 4:45little few touch-up trims here is all we
58. 4:47have left to do and this girl is going
59. 4:49to feel a whole lot more comfortable as
60. 4:52always guys thanks for watching and we
61. 4:55will see you all on the next
