We have been working with farrier Jake Cowden to help Cameo’s club foot by adding shoes. We’ve been making very slow and subtle changes to her hooves, but already we are seeing signs of improvement. She is striding better in the front with lots more toe flip instead of jamming her right front into the dirt. She continues to become more calm and relaxed. As Cameo becomes more balanced and feels more secure in her own foundation, her overall attitude has been changing, which is a welcome improvement! Helping her balance through corrective shoeing is giving her one more way to feel safe when we ask her to do work for us and to carry a rider.
