A few from yesterday 🔨🐴

Focused on balance, support, and setting these horses up to move comfortably and stay sound. Each one a little different, but the goal stays the same—clean work that holds up and helps the horse do its job.

Grateful for the good horses and great clients trusting me with them.

❄️ Winter Hoof Care Reminder ❄️

This ice and snow has been hanging around for almost two weeks now… or at least it feels that way 😆🥶 And while we’re all over winter, our horses’ hooves still need some extra attention during these conditions.

🧊 Ice and snow can pack into hooves, creating painful ice balls that affect balance and increase the risk of slips or injuries.
🐴 Check hooves daily and clean them out regularly.
🛠️ Consider pads, snowball preventatives, or proper traction if your horse is shod.
🏠 Keep turnout areas and walkways as safe as possible, and watch for changes in movement or soreness.

Cold weather doesn’t mean hoof care takes a break—if anything, it’s more important than ever. Stay warm, stay safe, and give those hard-working hooves a little extra love this winter! ❤️🐎

If you have questions or need help keeping your horse comfortable through this icy stretch, feel free to reach out!

This year marks the 10th anniversary of the Thoroughbred Makeover, and it’s hard to believe I’ve been lucky enough to volunteer as the farrier for 8 of those years. It’s been such a fun and rewarding experience — from the amazing horses to the incredible people I’ve met from all over the country. Every year brings new faces, friendships, and stories, and I’m grateful to be part of such a special event. Here’s to many more years of the Makeover! 🐎🔥

Excited to be back for my seventh year volunteering at the Retired Racehorse Project Thoroughbred Makeover! It’s always such a enjoyable experience to watch these incredible athletes transition to new careers and thrive with their new skills. Every year I’m impressed by the dedication of the trainers and the resilience of these horses. Looking forward to another memorable event!
