Laminitis :: Lami=laminae Itis=inflammation. There are 4 stages of “Laminitis” … Stage 1 is the Developmental stage and most horses go through this stage at one time or more during their lifetimes and present with no clinical symptoms. Owners have no idea that the hooves are in this state and most don’t realize until a month or two after the episode. This is when you’ll see a ring or two ‘appear’ about an inch or so down the hoofwall from the coronary band. This indicates the horse had an episode of laminitis (Developmental) but was able to itself without progressing into Stage 2 Lamintis – Acute Laminitis. Acute stage presents with the clinical symptoms we all dread to see. From there it will either resolve within 72 hours or then progress to Stage 3: Founder. Stage 4 is the Refractory stage. Most horses don’t ever reach this stage as most western/traditional practices will have deemed it necessary to euthanize the horse prior to this.
MOST Laminitis is caused by metabolic issues although there are cases of mechanical laminitis that occur as well.
What goes into the horse grows out through the hooves.
Yvonne Welz, Editor of “The Horses Hoof” has reviewed it and says,
Gwen’s passion for the horse shines through in this beautiful compilation of articles. There is a huge amount of info in here!! Whether you are a beginner to natural hoof care or a seasoned expert, you will appreciate the wealth of tips, advice, and things that make you go “hmmmm”! All articles are written from the “whole horse” perspective – that every single thing we do to the horse affects every other part of the horse. Gwen covers just about every topic related to horse care and hoof trimming you can imagine, with much food for thought, and excellent photos/illustrations. An enjoyable read for everyone on that eternal quest to create more natural lives for our beloved horses!
David Jones, Founder and Owner of HoofArmor LLC has also reviewed it and says,
When I switched from Engineering to Hoof Care 28 years ago, the cutting edge was aluminum horseshoes. The accepted procedure was to balance the hooves, perhaps symmetrically, 50 degrees in the front and 55 in the back, and nail on the proper size horseshoe. There were choices … you could get keg shoes, barrel shoes, rim shoes, gaited horseshoes, with or without pads and that was about it. Over the years I have learned a lot and out of necessity, by trial and error and observations, I found things that could actually help horses, barefoot hoof care being one of them. Now, with this book, you don’t have to go through that. I learned that there is more to hoof care than fixing the hooves, and that there are an enormous amount of factors that we are still learning about. Much of that is in this book and it will give you the head start that I wish I had. Don’t ever stop learning because your horse is depending on you.
And then Nick Hill, owner of V&T Hoof Specialists in Bulgeria …
I would urge anyone who is interested in horses to read Gwenyth’s book, You may or may not agree with everything (like most things written), but it is written over several years from personal experience by a very experienced professional who really cares about horse welfare and is always willing to share knowledge. So go get yourself a short cut to experience!!

Oh.my.GODFRY … I can’t even. I’m seeing more and more and more inquiries as to “why is my horse so sore!?” and it’s KILLING ME … my motto is now NO HEEL=NO HOOF=NO HORSE!!! It’s that simple. If your horse doesn’t have 1″ of depth of the collateral groove under the seat of corn and heel platform then your horse does not have enough heel! It’s THAT SIMPLE Folks … NO HEEL=NO HOOF=NO HORSE!!!!! Here’s what your horses’ hooves should be lookin’ like from the side: Do y’all see HEELS? From the back of the hoof? You want to be seeing about 2″ between the hairline (straight and NOT “V” shaped!) and the ground! … Take a look and I’ll challenge ya — post a pic of your horses’ hoof here in comments or send to me and I’ll do a quick commentary
(I’ll be positive!
