This tape is designed to give individuals interested in Natural Balance the most recent information regarding Natural Balance hoof preparation, application of Natural Balance front shoes, Elite hind shoes, Natural Balance pads, and Sole Support impression material. The video also offers some instruction for horses with mismatched feet, underrun and contracted heels, as well as horses that are base narrow or pigeon toed. The intentions of the authors are to offer some guidelines for recognizing hoof distortions and explain how they related to performance and lameness issues. On that same note, discussions on possible causes for hoof distortions are included, as are guidelines on how to correct the distortions and prevent them from a simple, common-sense perspective.
The authors of this video fully respect the work of other educators, authors and practitioners, and the evolution of natural farrier, as most of it fits well with the new science and common sense approach of Natural Balance. At the same time, some of the new information in this video will include load sharing, the sole callus, the importance of dirt in the foot, and why it is important for the horse to land heel first. Part of this information was inspired by studies and observations of self-maintained feet of feral and domestic horses, with collaborating research and contributions by many equally concerned individuals.
