The effects of social environment on standing behavior and the development of claw horn lesions
Journal of Dairy Science, 2021 The primary aim of this prospective experimental study was to evaluate how the social environment after calving influenced standing behavior in primiparous cows. At calving, primiparous cows were mixed with familiar peers in a low-stocked pen (≤33% stocking density; n = 22) or mixed with unknown older cows at 100% stocking density (n = 20).

Gradual Growth of Several Claw Traits and Claw Lesions in Dairy Cows after Hoof Trimming
Open Access Journal of Veterinary Science & Research, 2022 Several claw measurements, horn growth and wear were recorded monthly in a research farm to investigate the effect of solid concrete floor and gradual growth of these traits over 3 month after trimming. Two methods of hoof trimming were used: Standard Dutch (STD) and hollow (HOL).
