Horseshoes have been used for centuries, originally made of iron and now often made of other materials like steel, plastic, rubber or aluminum. They are made through hot or cold shaping processes and fitted to the horse's hoof either hot or cold. Farriers, who are specially trained professionals, shoe horses typically every 4-6 weeks by trimming the hoof and nailing on shoes. Different shoes exist for various needs like traction, support, or correcting gaits. Factors like a horse's use, hoof health, and terrain are considered to determine if a horse requires shoes.

Shoeing and Hoof Care
The document discusses equine hoof anatomy, care, trimming, shoeing, and common diseases and injuries. It describes the external structures of the hoof including the hoof wall, sole, frog, and coronet. Internally it mentions the coffin bone, plantar cushion, navicular bone, and laminae. It provides information on routine hoof cleaning and trimming, goals of trimming including retaining shape and angles, and considerations for minor corrections. Shoeing can involve pre-made or handmade shoes with cold or hot fitting methods. Common diseases and injuries addressed include thrush, dry/cracking feet, lost shoes, hot nails, street nails, and abscesses.
Anatomy of foot , shoeing tools, types of shoes and nails and their uses
This document summarizes the anatomy of the horse's hoof and leg and describes various tools used in horse shoeing. It discusses the bones and structures of the hoof, as well as common shoeing tools like hoof picks, knives, rasps, hoof stands, testers, nail pullers, hammers, forges, and tongs. It also explains different types of horseshoes like egg bar shoes, heart bar shoes, rim shoes, and comfort fit shoes which provide support for various hoof issues. References are provided for additional information.
lameness (equine hoof affections) Dr. Alaa Ghazy
Laminitis is a painful condition that affects the sensitive laminae that attach the hoof wall to the pedal bone. It occurs in three phases - acute, sub-acute, and chronic. The primary causes are excessive carbohydrate/grain intake, retained placenta, pituitary tumors, and more. Treatment focuses on eliminating the cause, relieving pain, improving circulation, and providing support. This involves medication, corrective trimming and shoeing, and sometimes surgery. Nail bind occurs when a nail is driven too close to the laminae, while nail prick means the nail penetrated the laminae. Both can cause lameness. Penetrating wounds to the foot are serious as infection can be introduced near important
Neurectomy of limbs in equine
1. A neurectomy involves severing or removing a nerve, and is sometimes used as a last resort treatment for severe chronic heel pain or navicular disease in horses.
2. The procedure involves making an incision to access the palmar digital nerve and removing about an inch of the nerve to block sensation in the foot.
3. Potential complications include formation of a painful neuroma, sloughing of the foot, or rupture of the deep digital flexor tendon. Close observation is needed after surgery as the horse will lose sensation in the heels.
SHOEING PROCEDURE IN HORSES
The document discusses the reasons why horses need to be shod and the shoeing process. It states that while shoeing has benefits like protecting the hoof from wear and providing traction, it is ultimately a necessary evil since it increases shock and weight. The document outlines how domestication led to foot problems in horses by changing their environment and diet. It then discusses how farriers should properly shoe horses, including fitting the shoe to the foot and reshoeing every 4-6 weeks. Common hoof issues like splayfoot and contracted heels are also described.
Laminitis IN EQUINES
Laminitis is a painful condition that affects the hoof and can be life-threatening. It causes inflammation in the sensitive laminae that attach the hoof wall to the pedal bone. Laminitis progresses through three phases - acute, sub-acute, and chronic. It is commonly caused by excessive weight bearing, lush grass consumption, or endocrine diseases. Clinical signs include reluctance to move and an abnormal gait. Treatment focuses on relieving pain, improving circulation, supporting the foot, and correcting hoof growth and alignment through trimming, shoeing, and sometimes surgery. Complete stable rest is needed to prevent further damage during acute laminitis.
Ascites in domestic animals
Ascites refers to an accumulation of non-inflammatory fluid in the peritoneal cavity, characterized by a distended lower abdomen. It can be caused by decreased plasma protein levels, increased hydrostatic pressure, or liver or kidney damage. Clinically, affected animals have an enlarged, barrel-shaped abdomen with fluid waves visible on palpation. Diagnosis involves abdominal ultrasound or paracentesis to analyze fluid characteristics. Treatment focuses on resolving underlying causes, increasing plasma proteins, diuretics to promote fluid excretion, and draining excess fluid in severe cases.

Azoturia- Paralytic myoglobinuria-
Azoturia, also known as Monday morning disease or tying-up syndrome, is a metabolic muscular disorder in horses characterized by stiffness, lameness, and muscle swelling. It occurs after a period of at least 2 days rest when horses return to exercise on a full ration. The major cause is carbohydrate overloading from excessive glycogen buildup in muscles during rest, leading to lactic acid accumulation during subsequent exercise and muscle damage. Clinical signs range from poor performance to an inability to rise. Diagnosis involves detecting myoglobin in the urine and elevated muscle enzyme levels in blood. Treatment focuses on rest, pain relief, intravenous fluids, and thiamine supplementation.
Estrus cycle of bitch
The reproductive cycle of female dogs (bitches) consists of four stages: proestrus, estrus, diestrus, and anestrus. Proestrus lasts around 9 days as estrogen levels rise, followed by estrus which lasts 9 days when the bitch will accept mating. Ovulation occurs 2-3 days after the LH surge, with fertilization possible 4-7 days later. Diestrus then lasts around 2 months as progesterone levels rise. Finally, anestrus is when the bitch is not receptive to mating until hormone levels change to start the cycle again.
Andrology lecture 15 Breeding soundness evaluation of bulls
In this lecture, the approaches for breeding soundness evaluation of bulls are explained for veterinary students, practitioners, and aspirants of IAS, RAS, and other examinations.
Downer cow syndrome
Downer cow syndrome is defined as a cow that has been recumbent for over 24 hours, usually following parturient paresis or milk fever. It can be caused by metabolic disorders like hypocalcemia, traumatic injuries, or severe toxemia around the time of calving. Affected cows remain recumbent even after calcium treatment and are at risk for muscle and nerve damage from prolonged pressure. Treatment aims to correct biochemical imbalances and get the cow standing, while prevention focuses on promptly and adequately treating milk fever and calving complications.
Physical examination of the dogs
For vets especially importance of physical examination in any animal diagnosis can be well understand. No short cuts! to any treatment as we always say.
Keratoma, canker, quittor, corn
This document discusses three uncommon causes of foot lameness: canker, keratoma, and quittor.
[1] Canker is a chronic infectious disease of the epidermal tissues of the foot, usually originating in the frog and spreading. It presents as a fetid odor and granulation tissue in the frog. Treatment involves debridement, topical antibiotics, and keeping the foot clean and dry.
[2] Keratoma is excessive keratin production between the hoof wall and distal phalanx, causing a hard mass. Diagnosis is via radiographs showing a radiolucent lesion. Surgical removal is required for resolution.
[3] Quittor is chronic
Fluid therapy_Animals
This document discusses fluid and electrolyte therapy in veterinary medicine. It describes the normal distribution of body water and outlines causes of abnormal fluid balance like decreased intake, increased output, and third spacing of fluids. The key aspects of fluid therapy are estimating fluid deficits, calculating fluid requirements, selecting appropriate replacement or maintenance fluids, and administering fluids via various routes. Common intravenous fluids used include lactated Ringer's, normal saline, plasmalyte, and colloids like hetastarch. Guidelines are provided for administering fluids and supplementing electrolytes like potassium and bicarbonate as needed. Signs of overhydration are also reviewed.
Urolithiasis in domestic animals
This document discusses urinary calculi (stones) in animals. It defines urinary calculi as mineral or salt crystals that form in the urinary tract. Common types include struvite, calcium oxalate, urate and cystine crystals. Risk factors include diet, genetics, pH, and infections. Clinical signs depend on location but can include pain, hematuria, dysuria, and obstruction. Diagnosis involves urinalysis, radiography, ultrasound and possibly cystoscopy. Treatment focuses on relieving obstruction, altering urine pH, managing infections, and dissolving or removing stones through various surgical techniques.

Affection of horn
The document discusses horn anatomy and affections in cattle. It notes that horns are formed by the frontal bones and become hollow. The base is thin and the horn thickens towards the apex. Blood and nerve supply are described. Major horn affections include avulsion, fracture, and horn cancer. Treatment for fractures may include amputation. Dehorning involves removing the horn at the base through elliptical incision and sawing. Disbudding young calves removes small horn buds using a caustic compound or hot iron. Procedures are done with local anesthesia and analgesia.
ketosis In Cows
Ketosis is a metabolic disease that occurs in cattle and sheep during periods of negative energy balance, such as early lactation in cattle and late pregnancy in ewes. It is characterized by hypoglycemia and the accumulation of ketone bodies in the blood, urine, and milk. There are several forms of ketosis, including a wasting form with decreased appetite and weight loss, and a nervous form with neurological symptoms like aimless wandering. Treatment involves replacing lost glucose through oral administration of propylene glycol or intravenous dextrose, as well as supporting liver function. Preventive measures focus on proper nutrition and avoiding negative energy balance around calving or lambing.
Post parturient-hemoglobinuria
Post-parturient hemoglobinuria, also known as hypophosphatemia, is a metabolic disease that affects high-lactating cows 2-6 weeks after giving birth. It is characterized by the hemolysis of red blood cells, hemoglobinuria, and anemia. The cause is not fully understood but may be due to a severe drop in serum phosphorus levels from its secretion in milk during intensive milk production. Affected cows show signs of inappetance, decreased milk yield, hemoglobin in the urine, fever, and diarrhea. The disease is diagnosed based on clinical signs and low serum phosphorus and red blood cell levels in laboratory tests. Treatment involves intravenous sodium hypophosphate
Mammary glands power point by Dr. Rekha Pathak senior scientist IVRI
The document summarizes anatomy and common surgical procedures related to the mammary glands. It describes the structure of the mammary glands including teat anatomy. Common conditions addressed by surgery are discussed such as teat lacerations, fistulas, papillomas/warts, lactoliths, and teat spiders. Surgical techniques including anesthesia, wound closure, and treatment are outlined for various conditions affecting the mammary glands and teats.
Reproduction in camel
This document discusses reproduction in camels. It covers the breeding season, signs of estrus, gestation period, parturition, and pregnancy diagnosis methods for camels. Key points include:
- Camels are seasonal breeders, with males and females coming into heat from November to March. Gestation lasts 390 days.
- Males emit a black pigment from pole glands during rutting season to attract females. Signs of estrus in females include excitement and swollen vulva.
- Pregnancy can be diagnosed using physical exams, chemical tests on urine or mucus, or ultrasound scanning of the abdomen. Parturition typically lasts 5-10 hours, with the calf standing within 6-8
Downer's cow syndrome
A Downer's cow is a cow that lies down for more than 24 hours and cannot get up due to hypocalcemia, or low calcium levels. Hypocalcemia is commonly caused by metabolic, traumatic, or toxic factors and results in prolonged recumbency and muscle damage. Treatment involves calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, and glucose supplementation to correct electrolyte imbalances and metabolic acidosis. Prevention focuses on proper nutrition, calving facilities, and herd management to reduce the risk of hypocalcemia in dairy cattle.

Ear affections
This document discusses ear conditions in pets. It covers otitis externa (inflammation of the outer ear), including common signs like head shaking and discharge. Otoscopic examination of the ear canal is described. Treatment for otitis externa involves cleaning and applying medications to the ear canal. Other conditions covered include auricular hematoma, otitis media (middle ear inflammation), and otitis interna (inner ear). Surgical techniques like lateral ear canal resection are discussed. Diagnosis and treatment of otitis media and interna involve cytology, antibiotics, and anti-fungals based on culture results from the infected areas.
Lactation tetany in mare
Lactation tetany of mares is a metabolic disease characterized by hypocalcemia that typically affects lactating mares around 10 days after foaling or 1-2 days after weaning. Clinical signs include muscle tremors, stiffness, and potentially tetanic spasms as calcium levels drop below 8 mg%. Diagnosis is based on history, clinical signs, and low serum calcium levels below normal ranges. Treatment involves intravenous calcium injections to rapidly resolve symptoms, while prevention focuses on vitamin D supplementation after foaling and weaning.

Interesting Facts About Horses by Lariot Europe
Horses have excellent memories, large eyes, and teeth that take up more space than their brain. They communicate dominance through fighting over females but not territory. When measuring a horse's height, the top of the withers is used as a consistent point. James Watt developed the term "horsepower" to describe the power of steam engines in a way people could understand. Lariot produces over 16,000 saddle trees per year in 14 countries, with over 280 styles and sizes ranging from 3 to 22 inches wide to accommodate different horse profiles.
Presentation Tools

Horses School Project
Horses have evolved over time from small forest-dwelling animals to the domesticated animals we know today. The earliest evidence of horses dates back 32,000-24,000 BC in France. Around 4000 BC in Central Asia, people began taming and domesticating horses for transportation, warfare, and agriculture. Horses were a key part of human civilization until the advent of automobiles in modern times. Today, horses are used for various sports like racing, dressage, show jumping, and polo, as well as leisure activities like trail riding.
Horse powerpoint
Horses have existed for millions of years, evolving from small multi-toed creatures to the large single-toed animals of today. There are over 300 horse breeds worldwide that fall into hot blood, cold blood, and warm blood categories. While horses are prey animals with a fight-or-flight response, they will stand their ground to defend themselves or offspring. Popular horse breeds include the American Quarter Horse, Arabian, Tennessee Walking Horse, Morgan, and Thoroughbred, each with distinct characteristics and uses such as racing, riding, or farming. Horses live in herds led by a dominant mare and stallion, and can live up to 30 years.

Farriers And Hoofcare
The document discusses various facts about farrier work including:
- The goal of shoeing is to shape the shoe to the hoof, not the hoof to the shoe. The horse's sole should not bear weight.
- Factors that determine the type of shoe needed include the horse's conformation, hoof shape, intended work, and surface it will work on.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
