Before her rescue, Annabelle had not had proper hoof care for some time. Her hooves were terribly overgrown and split, making movement quite uncomfortable for her. Dr Hannah gave her a preliminary trim while she was at NWESC, but today she got a full and proper trim from farrier Eric Nelson. Annabelle found the whole “standing still” thing to be a bit of a challenge but she was a good girl for the most part. Best of all, her hooves now look much more like they’re supposed to. It’s going to take several more trim cycles before she’s fully recovered from the neglect of years without farrier care, but she’s taken the first steps.
