Howdy,

If you have never seen a donkey hoof you may be surprised I know I was, the donkey hoof is indeed unique. The donkey hoof is more upright and can indent a bit before getting to the end of the hoof . It is imperative you have an outstanding trimmer to follow the guide lines of triming your donkey(s) hooves. Never try to make a donkey hoof look like a horse as this is a donkey not a horse.
In the wild the donkey is walking fifteen to twenty miles a day but in the modern-day farm he/she is not. Select Pete Ramey for more information on trimming a donkey hoof.
Training the donkey to stand for the farrier (hoof trimmer) is the job of the owner, most farriers will not touch a donkey that has not been trained.
GOD bless you and your family two and four-legged!

Proper care of ALL equine hooves is super important, for the hooves are such a critical part of their “support system”!
