Many times when I suggest a 4-week schedule to a new client, I get the strangest looks. If it's a client coming from a $25 farrier trim every 6-8 weeks, that look gets worse. We are not out to take your money! We are wanting to keep your horse's feet maintained so they remain sound and happy 😃🐴

Some horses, such as this guy, grow a ton of toe in just 4 weeks! Being on an 8-week schedule before with a farrier, this seemed far-fetched, but the client gave it a shot. After a few trims at 4 weeks, we no longer had a negative palmar angle and he was completely sound! I've been trimming this guy for well over a year now and he has never missed an appointment. I don't want to find out what would happen if he went past 4 weeks, but I'm sure he wouldn't be comfortable.

Take your horse's changing angles and growth into consideration when picking a trim cycle with your trimmer. Just because we are only clipping or rasping off a tiny bit, that tiny bit goes a long way 😊

That’s me on holiday with my pony 😊! I’ll be back to work Friday 10th June. I’d like to down tools during this time, but obviously I am always here if you need me. Especially those tricky laminitic’s, you know who you are 😉

I am really looking forward to our passionate about the foundation’s clinic with Kate Sandel and Shuna Shaw.

Making oily herb (Rosemary, Oregano & Thyme) tea for the horses, to increase the plant polyphenols in their diet. I then use the tea to soak their feed.
