Oh yes, she is aware! She is enjoying her pampering, she always wins me over with her little face begging for alfalfa. "Please mum Im dying of hunger, even tho you fed me a halfhour ago"
Surgical is EASIER?? I must be missing something. WAY back when I was a pre-vet major (before switching to Business data processing) I took a class in sheep production. In the lab we castrated 3 ways: banding, crushing, slit and pull. I can't imagine surgery is easier than any of those methods. A lot easier on the animal perhaps but not easier. I suppose the slit and pull could be relatively equivalent to surgery but WAY CHEAPER!
That is pretty weird. Do they curve in AND down or only in? And would it be possible over time to straighten them out? I think with dogs when you cut their nails close to the quick, it backs up some. If they are really long you can slowly work them back to the proper length over time without cutting the quick.Did some trimming lessons with S'more, Bolero, and Sequoia. My brother helped with Bolero who has made it that if you try to hold his hoof he plops on the ground. He also helped with Seqouia but in the middle of him steadying an alpaca his gf called so that was annoying
Anyways thought I would share this interesting feature of Seqouia's hoof, his front righ hoof grows really strange. All his other hooves were fine and grew normal as can be. His owners told us he had some different hooves but this is not what I expected
