MSU Bozeman & OHS Purcell This transferred over into his passion working as a farrier.

Cleve Hamilton APF was born and raised in our Big Sky Country of Montana. He benefited from the lessons learned from his parents and grandparents by participating on their ranch, in the back country, and from serving the public as guide and horse handler. From an early age he realized that a gentle, but firm touch and a soft word produced the desired results with horses. He was always fascinated b

y how a horse worked, both physically and mentally. He developed a keen eye for the best qualities in a horse and for the things that would lead to issues. For many years he honed his skills by studying the old timers techniques in his area. In 2008 he decided to pursue his life long dream of becoming a farrier. He attended the prestigious Montana State University Farrier School in Bozeman, MT. In 2015 he furthered his formal education by attending the highly acclaimed Oklahoma Horseshoeing School in Purcell, OK. Today he resides in Great Falls, MT where he services a wide area of Montana full time with his skills and experience.

Thank you to Gateway Products for making the best hoof dressing on the market!

We've been using their Su-per Hoof Dressing for several years now. In the hot, extremely dry summers here in Central Montana their hoof dressing is a must for our clients! Helping to keep the chipping and cracking under control, while keeping their feet looking much better overall. We already recommend applying every 2-3 days during the worst of the summer heat!

Just be sure to skip application when your farrier is scheduled! They'll cuss you for plugging their rasps with this fine product ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

Today was an exceptionally beautiful day to be out working on exceptional horses! We would like to welcome Dresden and the gang from 406 Vaulting Club to the Hamilton Farrier Service, LLC family. This big guy was such a quiet gentleman, who stood politely through his whole hoof care appointment ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿด

If you're not familiar with the sport of vaulting or their club, please go over to their page! You'll find tons of great information, get to know more about their equine partners, and check out all their incredible sponsors!

It was a fantastic opportunity for folks to get familiarized with the skills that this group of talented people are working hard to learn.

Maybe some of you would be interested in joining us as sponsors for this wonderful club!?! Or in volunteering to help out at their local shows? There's always something to do to help keep this opportunity going for our community ๐Ÿด๐Ÿ‘โœจ

Fly season in Montana means that your horses are constantly battling swarms of nasty pests! The incessant stomping is not only hard on the poor horses joints but it can be hard on their feet and/or shoes too ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿด๐Ÿฅบ๐Ÿชฐ

That steady concussion while trying to shoo the flies off of their legs causes all kinds of issues from chipping their bare hooves to broken nails and twisted shoes.

Farriers everywhere swear by fly boots for helping not only your horses, but you as well, and especially their time invested in keeping your horses feet going in the right direction!

We all know fly spray just adds flavor for the flies. ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿคข๐Ÿคช Plus you can soak your horses in those nasty chemicals and it still won't stop the bugs. So many farriers (us included) develop allergies and health issues from breathing in the fumes. Handling spray drenched legs causes those chemicals to also soak into your farrier's body and cause damage. Not to mention the insane cost of fly spray that just is not effective ๐Ÿ˜‘

Do yourself a huge favor.....head on over to visit our friend at Buzz Off Better Boots LLC and order your horses the best fly boots, from the best small business ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜‰ ๐Ÿ˜Ž for the best prices and the BEST SERVICE. You all know we love our fellow small business owners and we appreciate you all shopping with them too!
