I do my best to answer questions people have about goats, but Ellen is much more experienced and offering her goats 101 class again this month and its a great opportunity to learn and ask all of those burning questions! I just trimmed her herd of cuties today.

If you're able to get to Arlington, WA i highly recommend signing up. You'll meet other goat people too!

Class is held and run by Ellen at New Moon Farm Sanctuary

Award for best dead-goat-flop goes to Atlas. To his disappointment, the performance was not convincing enough to get him out of his hoof trim appointment.

Please note that I will be taking time off mid July. I have some openings for Snohomish and King County next week, but i will not be available the following week. I will be back the week of the 20th. Please reach out to me before then if you would like to be trimmed in July! 🙂

That has goat to be so much more comfortable!

Another goat who lived with long hooves despite his owners paying for a hoof trimming service from an unnamed farrier less than 2 prior. These things happen, especially when a farrier is not experienced with goats.

I am still constantly learning things myself, there is not a lot of reliable information online or in literature. There are goat books with pages dedicated to hoof trimming, but goat hoof care deserves an entire book for itself. You simply can't fit every situation and method onto one page. Most of what I've learned has been through trial and error and the privilege of trimming many goats throughout the course of their entire lives.

Goats, goats, goats, that all that goes on in my brain! They are my specialty and I certainly don't feel this confident about other animals.

The black spots in the white line are full of a foul smelling pasty substance. I see this a lot in goats living in wet environments (everywhere in WA!). The actual cause of hoof wall separation, or "shelly hoof", is heavily debated, but it believe it is certainly related to moisture. I have seen mineral deficiency, stony wet pastures, and genetics are all mentioned online. It responds well to frequent trimming and in many cases can be eradicated that way. If your pasture is wet many months in a row or your goat often visits a wet portion of the pasture, it may never go away. Trimming frequently still helps manage it, but if you want perfect hooves you must keep your goats in a dry environment, there's really no way around it.

Sweet relief!

I was excited when i saw this goat because I knew I would be able to help him immediately. Apparently another trimmer had come out less than 2 months ago, but i am assuming they were not comfortable taking enough off.

When goats hooves are this long you can take them all the way down, so long as there is no active bleeding. I say "active" because sometimes, when a goats hoof has been under stress, pockets of blood can form. So long as the blood is dry or jelly like, you can continue to trim off more.
