Honoring where the journey began. 🔨🔥
A key part of my career as a farrier traces back to the Isle of Wight, where I spent valuable time refining my trade under Simon. Working alongside him laid a solid foundation for the standard of shoeing and forge work I deliver to my clients today.
When Simon and his bride, Amy, celebrated their wedding recently back on the island, I wanted to mark the occasion with a fitting gesture of respect. I hand-forged this 370-layer Damascus steel knife specifically for them to cut their wedding cake. 🎂⚔️
It was a fantastic weekend catching up and celebrating with great friends. Warmest congratulations to Amy & Simon—wishing you both many years of happiness ahead! 🥂✨

🪵 Rock-Hard, Chipped Hooves? Read This! 🪵
Lately on my rounds, I’ve been coming across so many horses dealing with extremely hard, dry, and chipped feet. When the ground gets tough, hoof walls take a serious beating—especially for barefoot horses!
If you’re looking to get healthy moisture, strength, and elasticity back into your horse’s hooves, here’s a peek at what I do personally.

These photos and video are my own horses’ feet. I apply Anicura Hoof Oil once every single day, and honestly, the pictures speak for themselves!
Why it’s become my go-to:
Prevents Chipping & Cracking: Keeps the hoof wall flexible so it can absorb impact without flaking.
Deeply Nourishing: Supports healthy hoof growth and leaves a gorgeous, natural shine ✨
Everyday Essential: Easy to work into your daily routine—farrier tested and approved!
🎁 Exclusive Discount

Give their feet a little extra TLC—their hooves (and your farrier!) will thank you. 🐴💚

✨ I’m excited to finally share this… ✨

I’m incredibly proud to announce that I’m now an official Brand Ambassador for Anicura Natural Pet Solutions!

As many of you know, as a Farrier my reputation is built on recommending what I truly believe works. I would never put my name to a product that I hadn’t personally tested and trusted, which is why I spent a considerable amount of time using the Anicura range on my own horses before agreeing to this partnership.

We have a real variety of horses at home, from 16.3hh warmbloods to my children’s much-loved ponies, all with completely different workloads, management routines and individual needs. Finding products that genuinely benefit every horse isn’t easy, but the Anicura range has done exactly that. Every one of our horses has shown improvements, and it’s been fantastic to see such consistent results across the board.

There’s another reason this partnership means so much to us too. My wife is a complete natural-products geek! Whether it’s products for our children or our four-legged family members, she’s incredibly passionate about using natural, high-quality ingredients wherever possible. She’s the first to research everything and would only ever use what she believes is the very best on our animals. She’s been just as impressed with the Anicura range as I have. Not only have our horses thrived on the hoof and skincare products, but she’s also been using Anicura’s dog range, and the results have been fantastic.

These pictures speak for themselves on a new horse I went to visit this week. Healthier hoof walls, stronger horn quality and much-improved frog condition are exactly the sort of results I look for as a farrier. Good hoof care isn’t just about what happens every 5-6 weeks during a farrier visit - it’s about the daily care in between, and these products have become an important part of that routine.

What has impressed me just as much is that Anicura Natural Pet Solutions is about far more than hoof care. Their extensive natural skincare range has been an absolute game-changer for us.

Our children’s pony has often struggled with itchy, sensitive skin, particularly throughout the warmer months when flies become a real problem. We’ve been using the wound gels, sprays and shampoos, and the difference has been incredible. Her skin is calmer, healthier and far more comfortable, making summer much more manageable for both her and us.

For me, that’s what makes Anicura stand out. It’s true top-to-tail care. Since using their products, our horses’ hooves, skin and coats have genuinely never looked better, and knowing they’re made with natural ingredients gives me even more confidence in recommending them.

Because I genuinely believe in these products, I’m delighted to be able to offer something back to my clients and followers.

As part of my ambassador partnership, you can now receive 15% OFF your order.
Simply use my code: ‘COTSWOLDHOOF15’ at checkout!

Whether you’re looking to improve hoof condition, support healthy skin, manage minor cuts and abrasions, or simply want a more natural approach to your horse’s everyday care, I honestly think you’ll be as impressed as we have been.

Thank you to everyone who continues to support my farriery business. It means a great deal to me, and I’m really looking forward to sharing more product reviews, hoof care advice, tips and genuine results over the coming months.

I’d love to hear what you think if you decide to give the range a try! 🐴

PS - sorry for the radio silence on here!

🫏 BAILEY 🫏

✨ Before & After – What Love and Care Can Do ✨

These before and after photos say it all.
This lovely donkey, Bailey, was rescued by Emily, and the transformation since then has been nothing short of amazing.

Thanks to Emily’s dedication, patience, and nourishing care, Bailey now has the safety of a proper home, consistent love, and the chance to truly heal. The clear improvement you can see, especially in his feet - is a true reflection of what happens when an animal is given time, kindness, and the right support.

Since being in my care for trimming, Bailey’s feet have come a long way, and it’s been incredibly rewarding to see his progress step by step. Changes like this don’t happen overnight - they happen because someone truly cares.

Huge credit to Emily J Baker for rescuing Bailey and giving him the life he deserves. 🐴❤️
Proof that compassion, commitment, and teamwork make all the difference.
