Heller Rasps History
Winter conditions mostly give hard and slippery surfaces for the horse to walk on. Snow, ice and frozen ground are the factors that you have to participate on. The first step to prevent slipping is adding 2 widia pins to the heels of the front and hind shoes.
The Mustad LiBero, Equi-librium Air, DynaMic and LiBero Equi-Librium horseshoes are suggested options for 'All Weather' conditions.
Grip should be optimised on pavement/tarmac as a steel shoe can be very slippy on these types of surfaces. Also they can be very hard on the shoes wearing them out prematurely.
The German agricultural engineer Christoph Müller became a farrier for a special reason, he wanted to have more insight into this profession.
Jörgen Nordqvist is a farrier and teacher in Sweden. He started young, became an expert in shoeing trotters and made a remarkable switch in his career
The French farrier Thinet decided to work with racing horses at a young age. He now is a trotting specialist and works for renowned stables.
Former French farrier champion Stéphane Bréhin has a long and impressive record. This professional uses modern techniques in a consistent method.
Harness racing (Trotting) is a form of horse racing in which the horses race at a specific gait (a trot or a pace). They usually pull a two-wheeled cart called a sulky.
Feet are often very hard and contracted in a dry environment. Horses have often retained a lot of sole. This is a natural protection against the harsh environment that they are in. Take care not to remove too much of the protective element.
Loose surface and very uneven. Things to consider: bruising and puncture wounds are common, twisting of the limbs due to uneven ground.
