The Geriatric Hoofjack Hoof Stand is intended for the horse with severely limited range of motion.
The Geriatric model includes a Mini Base, a Geriatric Cradle and a Geriatric Post. The Geriatric Cradle and Post have been designed to provide a lower settings by incorporating the use of the Mini base. The Geriatric cradle will accommodate ponies up to small drafts.
The mini base is made of linear polyethylene and is 7" in height with a base diameter of 13". Overall height adjustment is approximately 8" - 13". There are two strong 90 lb. pull magnets included on the base to hold your rasp, nippers, hoof knife etc., so all your tools will be close at hand. The base material comes with a three year warranty against horse breakage and as an authorized dealer your full warranty rights will be honored by the manufacturer.
Please note: because of the smaller diameter of the mini base you will not have the full stability under the horse that the Standard or Medium base provides, however, in these severe geriatric/lame conditions the horse is generally not going to want to move around and usually welcomes the opportunity to rest on something solid. Using the Geriatric model under a full size healthy horse will require more attention to proper placement under the horse to achieve stability.
The Geriatric Hoofjack comes with
one
base and
one post
and
one cradle
. They're easily
interchangeable
- swap from cradle to post within seconds
