Use this handy worksheet for unmounted lessons that teach students how to recognize visible changes in the equine hoof over time.
Students can record data about the horse, the hoof conformation, and the condition of the hoof at a particular point in the trim cycle – then repeat at intervals and compare the hoof assessments.
Can also be used for more advanced hoof care lessons that evaluate the effects of shoeing or trimming practices, equine conditioning, equine health care, nutrition, stable managment, etc.
PRO TIP: Students could also print the page, fill in the information, and keep a photo of their completed pages on mobile devices as part of an ongoing hoof care history.
