Natural Hoof Care: A Spanish Podiatrist Shows the Way

Barefoot Trimming Gains Ground: Equine Podiatrist Shows Natural Hoof Care Spain - A growing number of horse owners are exploring natural hoof care alternatives, and a recent video from CanalSur TV sheds light on this trend. The video features Ana Isabel Pajuelo, an equine podiatrist, who demonstrates her techniques for trimming horses' hooves without using traditional metal shoes. "Being an equine podiatrist is about knowing how to trim a horse correctly," explains Pajuelo in the video, emphasizing the importance of considering the horse's natural balance. Instead of metal shoes, she uses plastic horseshoes, which she carefully applies in the video. This approach, she suggests, promotes the horse's natural hoof health and reduces potential problems associated with traditional shoeing. Pajuelo's work highlights a shift towards more natural and holistic animal care practices. The video concludes with a close-up of the finished hoof, showcasing the careful and precise work involved in this specialized field.
