Rusty
Meet Rusty, the cherished mid-twenties retired Thoroughbred whose remarkable transformation unveils the power of simple dietary adjustments and dedicated care.
This horse is a mid twenties off the track thoroughbred who is for the most part a retired and very loved family member, he does the occasional lead around for the children. His owner noticed he was a little light on, getting a little bit of itch and his hooves were not growing much at all.
Jess trims his hooves and suggested adding in some minerals into his diet. This image here shows the changes in the hoof just from making this diet change. His hooves are now growing at what would be considered a more normal rate, his coat is glowing with no more itch signs and he is maintaining weight well.
He has gone from a 12 weekly trim schedule (his hooves seriously did NOT grow at all) to a 5 weekly schedule and you can now literally SEE the health coming through in the hoof wall. Â
