As the competition season is about to start, Horse Hero's
Fiona Price provides a timely demonstration of how to trim a horse's heels using the time-honoured method of a comb and scissors! The desired effect is a 'contouring' of the fetlock joint rather than a close-crop, as this horse has unclipped legs. It takes no time at all to create a professional looking finish which is easy to maintain. (Another video showing how to do the job using clippers, is in the 'Competition, Turnout & Travel' section of the Video Library.)
