Sooo many hooves today. Hadn’t been done in a while so it was a challenge (thanks, Brionna for amazing help). The thing people don’t realize is that no matter how many times you wash (and even soak) your hands, they will still smell like sheep feet. #sheephooves #hooftrimming #hooftrim #feetsmell #shearinglife #shearinglifeissues

Awassi sheep - indigenous to the Middle East, they are bred to produce milk, and their wool is used largely for carpet weaving. Not a large sheep but very squiggly!!! I had to really use my knees to keep her from flying away from me. Note the fat tail - very interesting sheep. #awassisheep #awassi #sheepshearing #fattailsheep #shearingsheep #dairysheep #wigglysheep

HB is 16 years old and does not get especially excited when I arrive to trim his hooves and dew claws. But he does walk better afterwards. Just love his Fabio swoosh of bristles on his shoulders. His doggie friend came out to celebrate with milkbones. #interspeciesfriendship #pighooftrimming #pighoof #potbelliedpig #potbelliedpigsofinstagram #seniorpig #elderlypig
