Actually, under the Apron or Chaps the legs are bent more than the back, we try to keep the back from taking the downward pressure during parts of the process. Hands, forearm's, lumbar muscles calves all develop really tone. Also, if the horse is friendly doesn't really care you can take your time, it's when the horse is being bitten by deer or horse fly's that's when the horse won't stand still, so spray your horse before the Farrier arrives please.

Since she brought it up I have to say that the Bible doesn’t teach a works based Salvation…It teaches that Jesus’ sacrifice alone was enough to pay for the sins of the world and each of us must accept that gift in order to receive it. Repentance is necessary too but that is part of belief…when you truly see your sin and how it stands between you and a Holy God then you make a decision to turn from it. You will screw up and at times go back to sin but you do not stay in that state…when you truly trust in Jesus then the Holy Spirit resides within you from then on. Any good works we do are an effect of knowing God more and learning to be more like Him. We will never be perfect on this earth and that’s why we need Jesus’ sacrifice. I hope that clarified something for anyone reading and I’m sorry there are so many out there misrepresenting Jesus. Just remember that we are only people. If we harm or offend you, please don’t blame that on Jesus. And please go read His own Words and call out to Him for His wisdom and understanding and trust that you will receive that from Him.

And shoeing is for preventing unnecessary damage to the hoove, from cracks to infections to make their job easier (like this time) by adding more traction. Also, they don't feel pain, it's like working on our hair, you can cut, dye, curl them and you don't feel anything because there are no nervous terminations.

We are more than just the sum of our experiences or the endurance of our pain. Those are things that happen to us, and as difficult and painful as they can be, it is not who we are. It is not who You are. You are not your pain or your limitations. The world can try and trap your spirit in many creative and challenging ways, but just try and keep the heart of a metalsmith from lighting up at the sight of a piece of glowing hot metal, or keep at a canter the horse that is determined to run. When you remember who you really are, what you are, you take back every piece of power your pain ever stole ❤️ Wishing you from my heart, the freedom of knowing you're already free.

The part of the hoof that gets touched by the hot metal is the same material as your fingernails. As long as the heat doesn't touch the quick, it doesn't hurt at all.

@FlorenceSlugcatРік тому
Its the same stuff as your nails or hairs. It doesnt hurt to cut your nails/hairs. Nor does it to burn it. Obviously, if you put an iron on your finguernail itll hurt since your finguernails are very tin and the heat will transfer on the skin below, but the horse hooves are very thick, so the heat doesnt make it. Its the same way as wheb you iron your hairs to straighten them if you have long hairs. The temperature is well able to completely burn your flesh, but you dont feel it since your hairs are far from your head skin If the process was in any way painful or even just too inconvenient for the horse, the horse would have reacted by pulling back its leg, moving or something, which it did not do
