Barefoot Hoof Care Case Studies

Keeping up on case studies is a full time job in and of itself. None of these pages have been updated recently, and for that I apologize.

I am constantly learning, and my trim evolves steadily. What you see here I now feel I've improved upon tremendously! For more up to date information, please visit my On the Hoof blog for EasyCare here:

http://blog.easycareinc.com/blog/on-the-hoof

I've also recently released the first in a series of educational DVDs. Check out the "Videos" page here:
