Hi,

Well, today I used my Cummins grinder on 2 of my horses.
I have to say I'm in love. Wow sure made my job easy.
The first horse I did was my stallion. He pulled his foot a few times but
settled right down. I never practiced on wood. I did not use a handle
on the grinder at all. I just figured it would get in my way.
Have been doing my own trimmings now for over a year so using
the grinder was extremely easy. I will being doing my other 2 in a
few weeks when they are due for their next trim. They are all
on a 4 week schedule. One thing I really like about this is
that with on the hind feet I can do the toes from the bottom
to get the toe length right. My other horse never even flinched
when I turned on the grinder and proceeded.
Thank you, Phil, for sharing this method. And I used my hoofjack.
Can't do the feet between my legs due to an ankle that has
12 pins and a plate. Too much stress placed on it..

"Hi Phil,

Thanks for the quick reply! I am an SHP student and wanted you
to know that of all the hooves pictured in The Horses Hoof issue,
YOURS was BY FAR THE BEST!!!!!! You are doing a great trim
and I love that you are promoting the abrasive trim. I have carpel
tunnel and doing the whole hoof with knives is very painful for me.
I am using a rotozip and angle grinder and will be taking these
to my next practicum this month. The SHP instructors are not very
open to this technique, so I will be "bucking" the system with my noisy tools.
Looking forward to your DVD!!"

"A huge thanks to Phil Morarre for Saturday's Clinic. It was
a wonderful day in a beautiful place with the nicest people you'll
ever find and an exciting group of equines.
As for Phil, you will not meet a kinder, more-patient, helpful
person. He took on each equine from "Xena" (the wonderful Percheron
mare) with dinner-plate sized hooves, to lovely Arabs and QH, and the
vivacious "Lucy" the Arab/mule, to Jet (foundered pony with the
prettiest eyes). With Phil's help, each owner was able to do a nice
trim on their equine in a relatively short time.
I'll try to write more later, but check out some of the photos!"

Thanks so much,
Kathy
