I just realized that I haven't updated my page in quite a while - I'm still going strong and thank everyone for their business.

I always take extra effort to provide comfort and safety for your horses while I'm shoeing/trimming them.

If it gets below (and stays below freezing) and your horse doesn't have a warm, dry area to live in, or a warm(er) dry area for me to work in - I will most likely suggest to postpone services until the day-time temperatures get slightly above freezing. This is mainly for the prevention of cold weather laminitis, and also for the comfort and safety of yourself and myself as well. Lastly, it's sometimes difficult for me to do a good job when it's VERY cold.

I'm not above working while it's cold, but I do care about your horses comfort above all. Please consult with me (as many of you have over the years) if your upcoming appointment falls during an exceptionally cold stretch.

When I'm not busy shoeing horses (and building bits) - I enjoy heading steers on my young horse.

While I've posted a few times that I'm slowing down my Farrier business, I'm still actively shoeing horses - and, I am still accepting a few, select new clients.

I'll accept new clients based on current client and veterinarian referrals, and from horse owners who's Farrier has been injured (helping them out until they return). My book will never be completely closed. Don't be afraid to contact me. If I'm not able to help you, I'll point you towards someone who can.

With another year in the business (28 and counting), I'll implement a few new suggestions/rules:

*Payment will be due upon completion of services, unless previously agreed upon.

*Electronic payments ("I'll pay you when I get back home") will need to be paid within 3 days (I prefer within 3 hours).

*I will no longer work on horses that are eating (no grain bucket, no hay bags, no wheelbarrow full of hay etc). If they can't stand reasonably quiet, while held/tied (regardless of age), I'll gladly come back when they can stand quietly on their own. It doesn't matter the age, issues, current or past trauma, "my horse is a rescue", etc... It's simply a safety issue for both your horse and myself.
