Professional Farrier Services. So much more than just horse shoeing.

AFA Certified Farrier with 12+ years experience.

I shoe and trim horses which do many kinds of work and perform in many disciplines. My goal is to support and enhance the natural function of the horse and the horse's hoof to enhance his agility and his ability to play and work. I do barefoot trimming and I take many horses out of shoes when that is best, as well as work with owners who use equine boots. My horseshoeing is aimed at protecting and supporting the horse with the natural function of the hoof and leg in mind. My goal is to develop and maintain a robust and healthy foot which resists disease and injury and allows the highest level of optimal function.... See More

The most important decision that all horse owners make is who their farrier is. Horse shoeing and understanding lameness are a classic engineering problems to solve. Prior to becoming a certified farrier I was a structural engineer. Using my knowledge in engineering and design, coupled with my experience as a horsemen and professional farrier, I'll help you make a more informed decision regarding your horse's hoof care needs.

I'm certified by the Equine Lameness Prevention Organization (ELPO). Understanding what is healthy/normal to what is distorted and unhealthy are some of the things that I focus on as a farrier. I will spend time with you discussing the mechanics of the hoof and the movement and placement of the hoof as it strikes the ground. I will review the parts of the hoof; external and internal that are required to function properly to promote a healthier, sounder, and more efficient horse. We'll discuss balance and why it matters.

If you have a horse that seems clumsy, trips, stumbles, forges; these are all classic signs that you may have a hoof related issue to solve. I can help you understand what's going on.

I look forward to hearing from you and discussing your horse's hoof care needs.... See More
