Hoof
Stands
Stephen E. O'Grady, DVM,

| Through all my years of practice as a farrier and a
veterinarian, I never paid much attention to hoof stands
until I was converted by Kevin Keeler and his Hoofjack. This
unique hoof stand is durable, lightweight and has two
interchangeable inserts which can be adjusted to various
heights. One insert is a straight post with a rubber
cap for working on the outer hoof wall and the other
insert is designed in the form of a cradle or a sling.
Here the dorsal hoof wall rests in the sling allowing
work to be performed on the bottom of the foot. This
sling has been a great asset to our therapeutic work
as it allows the horse to remain in a quiet, relaxed
position with its hoof off the ground for extended periods
of time not to mention the ease at which the clinician
is able to work. The wide base on the stand makes this
stand extremely stable. For further information, please
