We decided to publish some questions we answer frequently here on our website.

What kind of hoof trimming method does your team use?

All members of our team are educated in the Dutch hoof trimming method (Toussaint-Raven). Experts have called this method one of the best hoof trimming methods in the world.

That’s the reason why we advice farmers to also buy their own hoof trimming crush and get a introduction training in hooftrimming. Cows that are crippled need to be cured immediately, otherwise it will cost you a lot of money. See also our ClawHealth Calculator.

If you cut your nails, do you also do that till you fingers bleed? No, so it is definitely time to find another hoof trimmer.

At least 3 weeks. If after 6 weeks the cows are still walking with the blocks we would advise to take them off and if necessary replace them. Also for getting hoof blocks off, a crush is helpful, another reason why every farm needs a crush.

It is most important to take away the main causes that make it possible that your herd contracts this illness. For every farm there is a different way how to tackle this problem. Therefore we need a few more details. Please send us an email (info@cowcare.eu) or call 00371 2917 2713 and we will give you a consultation.

That depends on a lot of factors like; amount of cows, amount of trimming, your hoof trimming method, future plans, management, cow traffic etc. We can give you a custom made offer which fits with your farm. It doesn’t matter if your farm has 30 or 30.000 cows. For every farm we have a hoof trimming crush, but if you as farmer or manager want to make the right decision, you will need to inform us about your specific situation. Call us (00371 2917 2713) or send an email (info@cowcare.eu) and we will be happy to assist you.
