Free Donkey Foot Care DVD for Farriers

The Donkey Sanctuary recently launched a free DVD for distribution to qualified farriers and industry apprentices. The 15 minute documentary provides visual and technical support regarding donkey foot care. It identifies key differences between horses' and donkeys' hooves. The main chapters include:

• - The normal donkey foot
• - How to correctly trim a normal donkey foot
• - How to deal with seedy toe
• - How to deal with trimming long feet

The demonstrations within the film are performed by one of the Sanctuary's most experienced farriers, Colin Goldsworthy, who states  “If you are just starting out as a farrier or even if you’ve been in the trade for years, please do get in touch for a free copy of this DVD. The film has been produced for you and the advice within it has been derived from The Donkey Sanctuary’s vast experience, having cared for almost 14,500 donkeys over the past 40 years.”

The DVD is available FREE on request to qualified farriers and industry apprentices ONLY.
