Dallmer Orthopedic Foal Extensions

  • The Dallmer Extension Shoe is designed to correct axial limp malformation in foals.
  • The enlarged sole platform supports the foal‘s leg more than just on the propulsion surface of the hoof.
  • The weight-bearing region of the sole is displaced, and the hoof adjusts to a new centre of gravity.
  • One-sided extension of the heel support encourages the foal to align the toe.
  • The extension shoe is fitted by screwing the adjustable half of the shoe wall located on the extended side onto the sole in accordance with the size of the hoof.
  • The hoof itself is corrected by trimming down the bearing edge according to standard practice depending on flexion or rotation of the region.
  • Important! Due to the rapid horn growth on a foal, the hoofshoe should not remain glued onto the hoof for longer than 3 weeks.
