Farrier - Mitch Fox

I will be opening up a few more Farriery spaces for horses to be brought to Fox Equestrian for hoof care.

After cutting back travel last year, there’s been support for horses being floated to be shod.
I’ve decided to publicly offer this service a couple of days a week.
Shoe/Trim from pleasure through to high performance horses as well as remedial.

Horses can be stabled for the day or done while you wait.

🤕2023….The Year of The Hospital🤒
Broken Foot - Mitch
Baby - Brooke
Burns - Mitch
I guess all in all that makes it even (Brooke might not agree 😅)

This year has brought us highs and lows, we lost a friend, mentor and father in Phil Sweeney and gained a beautiful happy smiling baby in Emily Jane (Emily’s expressions and mannerisms let us know that poppy Phil is never far away).

Thank you to our family and friends who shared the highs, lows and achievements with us this year, we couldn’t ask for better people to be in our lives ❤️

🎄Merry Christmas & Happy New Year🎄
Wishing everyone a safe and happy holidays and here’s to an awesome 2024 🥂
