Hoof trimming services are tailored to each individual horse's needs. I use a scientific approach to optimise biomechanics based upon their individual conformation, age, level of work, previous or current injuries, and any future goals. A fitting service and advice on the use of hoof boots is available if required. You never just get 'A TRIM', my service includes recommendations on management, nutrition and exercise, all of which will contribute the overall health and usability of your barefoot horse I consider this a regular MOT for your horse! Horses with laminitis, navicular and other hoof pathologies are trimmed using a remedial approach, and it is my goal to improve the comfort and aid relief and healing in these cases. I have been around horses of all ages my entire life (they were inflicted on me from a young age!) and have recently trained with Ben Hart, for advanced handing skills. I can provide training for horses and owners including youngstock and nervous horses, to gain acceptance of having their feet handled without getting stressed, using sympathetic non-aggressive techniques. I have experience in most disciplines and have trained many horses for leisure and competition ... including 2 miniature shetlands into harness! If you are considering going barefoot, or would like any more information, please call me for a chat.
