A lateral heel modification on a Century Support shoe from Royal Kerckhaert Horseshoe Factory with a ground out toe. Like a human sprinter in the starting blocks, enables the toe to get into the surface and create traction.

A winning solution for Jemima P.

Suspensory ligament injury to the medial branch in this sports horse, treated in this case with a wide toe and wide medial branch. The wider side of the shoe must correspond with the injured branch of the ligament

A hind suspensory shoe modification, wider in the toe and narrower at the heel. This prevents the toe from sinking and allows the heel to descend into a soft ground surface. The idea is to increase the load on the deep digital flexor tendon, thereby providing better support to the fetlock joint and suspensory.

How not to deal with a quarter crack.
Figure 1 shows someone’s attempt to ‘groove’ out underneath the crack to try and alleviate upward force and further pressure to the damaged cracked area.
Figure 2 is the same hoof 3 weeks later after I removed the first crack patch that I had fitted for replacement and resection of the heel, as the ‘grooving’ had created sheering and a further crack through the bar and buttress. You can also see in figure 2 that there is healthy hoof growth above the crack and no further tearing.
Figure 3 shows the rebuilt heel and new crack patch with correctly fitted shoe for this foot. Figure 4 shows the frog support pad fitted with antibacterial copper sulfate mix underneath, to cushion the hoof capsule and help with the weight bearing load, therefore dispersing the concussions and stresses more evenly throughout the whole hoof capsule.

An old injury that had been growing down well started to crack up. Filled with antibacterial copper sulphate wax and patched over the top to stop any more cracking
