Same here! I'm not a very big person...just a little over 100 lbs. All of the girls weigh more than I do so I have to make up for it in attitude (and to be honest some of them have me beat there too but I can't let them know that!). I put them on the milk stand and stand up beside them pulling the hoof up between my knees like horse farriers do. My problem is when I have to squat down behind them to work on the toes and see if I have it straight. If they kick I am GONE FISHIN'!!! I've got callouses on my buns from sliding backwards across the dirt! My heart goes out to you because I know your pain!!
