Basic Goat Hoof Care Mobile Trimming Set

This is our 2nd Hoof Boss. We purchased one many years ago that has been sent back for repair once, worked a couple years, and needs another repair. We weren't sure if we should purchase a cheap cordless grinder on amazon or go with another Hoof boss. In the end, we have several hoof boss grinding blades and we also use Dewalt cordless tools extensively, so we went with the mobile hoof boss. VERY glad we did. Since we purchased the first one there are now many videos out and some cool You tube channels on hoof care. I needed to adjust my technique. That has made all the difference, and the cordless model is much better: it is faster to grab and do a quick job rather than finding extension cords so I do a quick trim when it needs doing rather than thinking maybe later. It is also more efficient when doing a bunch of goats. I don't have to find a good place to set it down and move the cords so the next goat on the stand doesn't hit it and drag it around. Hubby gave me one of his old tool harnesses which I thought was too dorky but actually is better than hanging the battery and hoof boss on my jeans. My jeans will hold them but the harness makes frequent on/off between goats easier because the hoof boss clip is tight and may take two hands to put or take off. a metal clamp on the belt makes this easy if you do a bunch of goats. Anyway changing my hoof trimming technique made all the difference. I did not need to use hand cutters at all even though some of the hooves were severely overgrown, and doing it properly made it go very fast which was much easier on my back.

Its Authentic bosstool

I used it once and it wasn’t easy to use. I used it again and it really upset the goats and was hard to use. I cannot return it because it’s past 30 days but with goats you wouldn’t use it more than once in 30 days. Really disappointed in the product and the policy.

This works great! I use a DeWalt battery for power and it clips onto my belt. I ended up getting a finer grit disc ( gold/tan) because I trim them every other month and don't need such a course disc every time. This has cut my trim time down to less than half. The goats don't seem to mind this as much as cutting their hooves, maybe because its faster. I would definitely recommend!

So far she has used it on a flock of sheep, a small herd of goats, and a couple of her cows. Much easier for her to use than nippers and file and gives better results.
