Pro tip: I was trimming a quarter horse's hoof in Bend last week and the owner pointed out a subtle lameness I'd missed. Realized I'd been focusing so hard on the foot I wasn't watching the whole animal move.

Read a vet saying that exact thing once.

Stepping back to watch the whole horse really helps.

Stepping back" works for some things. But I've found you miss the small stuff that way. Gotta get in close sometimes.
