I think I have spoken about Sworls before but it came up again in conversation the other day when I saw a horse that had so many sworls and some info spots I havent seen before.

Show me your horses sworls!

I thought this was a pretty cool video.

I have been asked if I trot horses on my treadmill. My answer is no I do not. I can create a very good workout for your horse while they're walking, by adjusting their walking speed, water height and the time they're on the Water treadmill.

There are other benefits to a walk including but not limited to ribcage and diaphragm movement, warming up the joints and fluid within the joints and their mental health.

Pistol has been coming for haul-in treadmill sessions post kissing spine surgery and stayed for a week while his owner was out of town. He has come a long way and I am so thankful to be part of his recovery and strengthening 💪

3-D printed Shoes! Yup, they're glued on, super light and you can choose colors. This was something I saw when down conference!

Being 3-D printed you can customize for each horse in ways that you cant necessarily with steel shoes which was neat.

We have no idea how they'd hold up in Canada and the different terrain and disciplines (and more) are factors but it was a cool thing to learn about.

This sweetheart of a horse has nerve damage on her back resulting in significant muscle loss, starting in her lumbar on her left side.

The bottom video shows how she was walking on Sept 30th, she was stiff, choppy and you can see a lot of weakness.

The top video was taken on Oct 1st I patched her prior to her workout and theres still weakness as to be expected with muscle loss and nerve damage but she is walking more fluently and more even.

The picture shows where the patches were placed on that particular day
