Horse Hoof Trimming Guide: Overgrown vs Properly Trimmed Hooves #137332 (License: Personal Use)

The left illustration shows an overgrown hoof with excessive wall length, distorted frog alignment, and potential sole pressure-common causes of laminitis or navicular issues. The right image depicts a properly trimmed hoof with balanced heels, appropriate toe length, and a healthy frog-to-ground contact, supporting optimal biomechanics and weight distribution.

Used in veterinary, farrier, and equestrian educational content to teach proper hoof care, diagnose trimming issues, or illustrate consequences of neglect; matches user intent seeking preventative equine health guidance.
