Ridecamp: Re: [RC] [RC] barefoot endurance

Press Release:
The Strasser Method Trim Considered
by Henry Heymering, CJF, RMF
President, Guild of Professional Farriers

Considering Dr. Hiltrud Strasser's specialized barefoot-only hoof care method, all I can tell you with
   certainty is that (1) the Strasser method resembles a franchise; (2) reasonable proof has not been presented
   regarding her claims either that the Strasser trim is better than other trimming methods, or that horseshoes
   cause any significant damage; and (3) Dr. Strasser herself says her trim may cause the death of the horse.
   Until evidence of the safety and effectiveness of the Strasser trim is provided I cannot recommend the
   Strasser trim in place of more traditional farrier methods.
