Awareness of the outside world. It’s Airborne: How Can You Clean The Air? W.A.T.C.H. Hat tip to B.

An Ultimate Hoofpick, marked with blue tape for the kit I bring to Stepping Stone Farm. [What Makes You, You? A Blog Hop.]
I put off taking one of these to an outside barn for fear of it going walkabout. I finally decided to throw money to the winds and live on the edge. So now I have a new blue one for SSF and a backup. If I’m gonna groom horses, I want the right equipment.
The evolution of an obsession:

January 2020. “I thought I would try the fancy ones.” [New Equipment, Hoof: Care]
April 2021. “It’s a cumulative effect. The angle is a bit better. The digging surface is a bit sturdier. It takes fewer passes to clean the foot.” [New Equipment, Hoofpicks, Take II]
August 2022. “So, now we own six of the expensive little dears.”[New Equipment, Hoofpicks, Yet Again]
October 2023. Make that eight.
Onwards!
