DOGS WHO DO NOT WEAR DOWN THEIR CLAWS CAN ALSO SUFFER TERRIBLY DUE TO TOE NAILS THAT ARE TOO LONG. HORSES REQUIRE EXCELLENT FARRIERS TO BALANCE AND MAINTAIN FOOT HEALTH. COWS, SHEEP, PIGS ETC, ETC ALL REQUIRE HEALTHY FEET FOR HEALTHY ANIMALS FREE OF PAIN. TAKE A LOOK AT YOUR ANIMALS. THEY MAY NEED YOUR HELP.
