Hoof Care

Specialising in creating & maintaining healthy hooves

We provide an equine* barefoot trimming service; fully certified & insured with over twelve years of experience. From trimming sound equines, transitions out of metal shoes to rehabilitation of damaged & poorly feet, we are happy to consult & work with you. We use various hoof protection methods where appropriate (boots, glue on shoes, casts etc) & your trimming schedule & support is bespoke for you.

Laminitis, abscesses, navicular problems, hoof injuries & more strike fear into horse owners. If you already have a problem, we can help. Prevention is always the best approach, so we can help with this too. If you think you have exhausted all options for your equine, please speak to us.

Our own horses have always been barefoot & we firmly believe this is in the best interests of the equine & their health. However, we never say never to any hoof support that will be beneficial in the long term.

Your first consultation with us will take as much as possible into consideration: past or current hoof concerns & health, dietary review, exercise regime, X-rays or other bodywork reports; basically, the whole health of your horse.

Training with Ida Hammer (Mackinaw Dells 2, Illinois), through her certification program, with early support from Pete Ramey and some other amazing hoof care professionals, means that the knowledge we have to assist you is the best. Continual knowledge development is also high on the agenda, with ongoing learning both in the USA and at home.

We look forward to working with you & your hooves!
