As a Farrier, my main goal is to maintain long term soundness for your horse, in order to ensure a happy, and healthy life. I have four years experiance shoeing horses in my home state, Alaska, and another 2 in northern California. I was trained at Mission Farrier School by Mark Plumlee, who taught the principles of Natural Balance. The idea is the trim or shoe each foot individually, and in a way
that allows the proper motion and breakover for that foots mechanics. After Mission, I worked under one of Alaska's top farriers, Debbie Avritt, where I got even more practical working knowledge, and experiance. In addition, my parents are both Veterinarians, and i have worked with and attended AAEP, and Bluegrass Laminitis Symposiums, with my Mother, Dr. Julie Grohs, who specialises in Equine Podiatry. I Have also worked with Dr. Rick Redden of kentucky, and have attended two of his seminars on evaluating and utilizing radiographs of the Equine foot. I look forward to providing your horse with the care that it deserves.
