As a horse owner you probably get asked the same generic question from your farrier -

🐴 How are they going?

🐴 What sort of work you doing with them at the moment?

🐴 How often are you riding?

These general questions aren’t just conversation starters, or someting to fill the silence, this is our way of getting information from you to help us understand what’s going on and what plan of action we need to take.

Knowing how often you're riding, where you are riding and what discipline you are asking of your horse will determine how we trim/shoe to suit these demands, so your 4 leg friend can keep performing at their best 🏇🦄

How it starts, then how it ends.

Had an influx of new horses recently that needed an improvement in their shoeing quality.

Hopefully we're on the right path.

And people say it always rains in England?

The best thing about the rain and the humidity?

All that dry, compacted sole and frog just melts off 🙂

Nice to see the big horses used for what they were bred for.

And probably the biggest horse I have to shoe 🥵💪

Wonkey Donkey 🫏🤣

Today was farrier day for the donkeys and ponies.
Wonk still has a way to go to get back to his old trusting self, but we got one foot further than the last visit.
Mavi was a legend, lifting his feet for the farrier himself, the ponies were much better again this visit too.
Dixie isn’t at a point where we can do her feet yet, but we will get her there.
Huge thanks to Dolmans Forge and Farriery for his patience with Wonk, he is worth it.
