To encourage a horse to lift its hoof, you can gently pinch the area just above the fetlock joint, on the back of the leg. This area is sensitive and can prompt the horse to respond by lifting its hoof. Always approach the horse calmly and ensure it is comfortable with handling to avoid startling it.
