Using the standard recognised Dutch 5-step method, BK Foot Trimming works together with farmers to both prevent and cure lameness in cows. Regular foot trimming ensures that the ideal hoof shape is maintained, improving balance, mobility and correct weight-distribution across the two claws. Incorrect weight-bearing can result in overloading, bruising, ulcers and poor posture as the cow tries to compensate. Foot trimming together with regular inspections, foot baths and hygienic housing helps to control and reduce diseases of the foot such as dermatitis.
