Jaci Update AKA Hailstorm Jaci
Left Front Before First Trim In August 09
- Left Front
The left front was Jaci’s low underslung side, on the before pic you can see by the black marks where the back of her heels are. I brought the heels back almost and inch on that first trim, keeping the heels back and the toe to the white line brought the foot back under the horse in just over 3 months. Notice in the last pic how wide the heels are, how fat and healthy the frog is, and the obvious caluose this horse has in the toe. The landing zone on this foot is fanominal.
Right Front Before First Trim
In this pic you can see the back of the heels marked in black, this was Jaci’s high clubby side.
Right Front Before Last Trim
Notice how much these heels have decontracted and how far back they are compared to where we started. Also note the calouse in the toe on this foot as well.
Jaci's knees, they have been holding level.
Jaci’s knees are holding level now between trims, and both front feet are starting to look the same on the bottom, balance and time are the key.
Kerry, Julie, and Jason have all done a great job on this horse, and with out everyone working together the way they have ,Jaci would have never made it back to competitive shape. She is back and she is strong, and i am looking forward to attending her next competition. This rehab took just under a year after she was brought to me in Ca. She spent 3 months here and then returned to Kerry and Julie, where they continued her daily work out regiment. There were many ups and downs but the crew hung in there, and now Jaci and her family are back together and looking forward, not only to many years of competition, but many years of competition Bare Foot. This is what can be done when you BELIEVE and never give up on the animal you love. This is everyone’s success story and we all share in the happiness and pride in our hard work, but I have to say that there is a silent partner here, one that doesn’t always get credit, with out the boot products from Easycare none of this would have been possible, so THANK YOU EASYCARE INC for producing such a great product line, from all of us involved in the Jaci rehab story.
