Custom trim for your horse(s), hoof photos for analysis, boot measurement and sizing advice, and suggestions and information on any hoof related topic including thrush treatment, hoof rehabilitation, transitioning from steel shoes to barefoot, alternative hoof protection, nutrition, and more. Will collaborate with the other professionals in your horse’s life (vet, massage therapist, chiro, etc) – love being a part of the team. Recommended trim cycle is usually 4-6 weeks, but there are exceptions.

Our time together can include hoof photos, analysis of current hoof health, review of medical history and radiographs if available, slow motion video to check movement and hoof landings, my recommendations for your horse based on their history and your hoofcare goals, answering all your questions, and anything else you need. Included is a follow up text/email with resources for you.

Teaching Sessions

If you’re interested in learning to trim your own horse, I would love to help! Contact me for details and a recommended tool list. This is customized to what you need – some people have already been trimming on their own and want a refresher, some clients want to learn how to do touch ups in between professional trims, and some clients want to learn how to do all their own hoofcare. I can also offer your resources for doing your own glue on shoes, there are several great options on the market now. 

Western Washington clients in my service range, only. Email for hourly rate, timeline, and tool list.

Most common topics include my approach to trimming, PNW hoofcare recommendations for the PNW, the hoof rehab process, your horse’s current hoof health, your hoofcare goals, and alternative hoof protection options. This session also includes a follow up email with links to any resources mentioned.

$60/hr

Farrier Support Session

This is a non-judgmental space for hoofcare providers to discuss your current business obstacles and frustrations. Sometimes it’s a surprise to find out what working for yourself really is like! There is a high rate of burnout in our industry. We can talk about whatever is on your mind for this session to ensure that you are running your business, rather than it running you. 

Common topics can include: business advice, problem solving for difficult cases, avoiding burnout and compassion fatigue, taking care of your body, and practicing good boundaries at work.

This is also open to anyone working in the equine industry! Vets, trainers, grooms, stable hands, bodyworkers, etc. You are not alone.
