ANSWER to our horseshoe trivia question from yesterday! This shoe was made for a horse that over-reaches diagonally and pulls front shoes. So it would be worn on a hind foot... do you think it’s a left or a right hind shoe?

**ANSWER in next post!** How about a fun trivia question! What is the name of this shoe and what is it used for? Bonus question: Which foot would it be used for?

IT'S THAT EXCITING TIME OF YEAR.. ...when the mares begin checking in to the clinic for foaling! The first 2 mares checked in this week, and we can’t wait to meet their little ones.

We are now in the final week to take part in our half-price December Dental Program! Did you know that your horse’s teeth continue to erupt (from below where they are visible at the gum line) throughout their life? This is one of the reasons why it is so important to get a dental exam and float yearly to maintain your horse’s dental health. This picture shows a tooth extracted from a 9 year old horse vs a 27 year old horse. See how long the tooth of the 9 year old horse is v...s the 27 year old? Throughout his life the 9 year old horse’s teeth will continue to erupt and eventually, when he is old, his teeth will no longer have anything left to grow out. By floating your horse’s teeth regularly we help keep an even grinding (chewing) surface and keep their teeth functioning well for many years. Uneven wear can cause early loss of tooth function and even tooth loss! Call or email for more info and to book your appointment by December 31st and receive 50% off your horse’s exam and float when you book 2 or more horses at 1 appointment time!
