hoof care
Shoeing and trimming
Hoof care is the maintenance of an animal's hooves—typically horses, cattle, or goats.
This includes trimming, cleaning, and treating problems like cracks or infections.
Regular hoof care prevents lameness and ensures the animal can walk comfortably: The farrier comes every six weeks for hoof care.
