After over 15 years as a qualified Veterinary Nurse, I decided I needed something new to sink my teeth into. The result was Equine Dentistry. Having owned and competed my own horses for 20 years, plus my Equine Management and Husbandry qualifications, this was the logical next step! I thoroughly enjoy my career as an Equine Dentist, every horse I see is unique and I take pride in being able to mak
e them happy and comfortable. I have taken many horses from unridable, dangerous beasts to trophy winning eventers and dressage mounts. No teeth, no horse!!

We are looking for some generous sponsors for our One Day Event at Waterford Equestrian and Pony Club.
Don’t have a business?! You can sponsor a class as yourself or a family ☺️
If you are interested, please contact me for more info!
This sandy looking stuff is tooth filings!
From all the excess enamel points I file off and malocclusions I fix. The amount will depend on how long it’s been since the last dental.
Guess how many horses this is from?
None of them had been seen in the last 4 years.
Hi all!
Please ignore the ‘book now’ option until I figure out how to turn it off 😫
Facebook doesn’t have access to my schedule so it’s ok with booking an appointment on the Gold Coast and one on the sunny coast on the same date 🤯
As usual, its busy busy!
Here are my availabilities for the next 2 months.
Please PM me if you'd like a spot, the comments get a bit lost.
Cheers

His cross country confidence is growing, he did a fab dressage test and got a rail in the showjumping coz he momentarily forgot he has legs.

2-3 days out
3-5 days out
5-7 days out
I can’t do them much earlier as I need to have the day sufficiently booked so I can work out my timing.
And any less than 2 days leaves me a bit open to not be able to fill the spot should I get a cancellation.
What do you guys think?
June and July dates!
Get in touch soon. PM if you’d like a booking.
$125 for 1 horse
$125 for new clients or overdue horses

Let me know if you’d like a spot 🐴🩵🐴
I’ve never been accused of being subtle, so why start now?
I’m mad….real mad.
In 2 hours of my morning today, BOTH my clients were a no show, despite having confirmed their times. I left home at 6.30 this morning, I won’t make any income until 9.30am. That’s 3 hours I’ve been driving and waiting around for clients to not turn up. Im working until 7.30 tonight. 13 hours (3 of those hours a waste of my time)
I am busy. I am booked out 2-3 months ahead. I have 50 spots a week, that’s it.
No more.
That’s how I pay my mortgage, that’s how I pay for my car, horses etc.
Last week, those horses went down to 35. That’s 30% of my bookings. 30% of my income. How would you be affected if 30% if your income just vanished?
That’s 15 horses I’m not doing, with not enough notice to fill those slots. And 15 horses that I now need to fit in somewhere else in my already booked out schedule, putting my good clients even further down the queue.
This is how it works- the day books out, I put everyone in order (almost daily I’m driving 200km+, so this part is important). Unless you tell me ahead of time what time you need, I cannot read minds. If you need after 2pm, please tell me at the time of booking and I’ll accommodate as best as I can. I can’t move my entire days bookings last minute to accommodate the time you may need.
So here’s what I need to do.
🚫If the appointment is cancelled (less than 24 hrs) twice- please find another dentist (obviously emergencies happen and that doesn’t count!).
🚫If the appointment is cancelled late notice (less than 24 hours) I will ask for pre payment for the next one, and unfortunately you will have to wait, or get someone else.
🚫If you don’t turn up to the appointment despite confirming, you will be charged IN FULL PLUS TRAVEL for the appointment. There won’t be an opportunity to rebook, you’ll have to find someone else.
🚫If you don’t pay for the appointment in a timely manner (within a couple of days) you can…… you guessed it! Find someone else.
I have too many good, reliable, promptly paying clients to be inclined to take on any who aren’t.
I am trialling some different booking systems but really, I don’t want to have to do that. I don’t want to ruin it for the good ones in order to safeguard myself.
And I can’t take deposits from every single booking, I don’t have time for that.
I already send reminder emails, confirmation messages…..what more can I do!!!!
That was a lot of words to essentially say- you respect my time, I’ll respect yours.
You waste my time- I’m gonna charge you for it.
Here’s a photo of Wizard, he keeps me sane.
Thankyou to my wonderful clients (99% of you) who keep me dentisting and not giving up and going to the pub instead. I value you 💕
If anyone is after an AWESOME bodyworker, she’s your gal!

1 week Montana update. Happy to report she’s doing great. Has gone through nearly half a round bale, and the eye is looking better. I wormed her today (I wanted to make sure her system was a little settled first). The rain scald scabs are coming off slowly but surely. Al in all she’s very bright and happy. Neighs and runs over to me in the paddock now, a week ago I couldn’t catch her. And that’s with all the horrible medications I have to give her. She’s a trooper!
Little Monty update from this morning 💕 Thankyou all for being so interested, it’s great she has such a huge fan club! I’ll do lots of updates 🥕 Don’t worry- The white cream in the eye is ointment prescribed by the vet!
Congrats to all my clients and friends who competed at Tamborine Equestrian Group - TEG this weekend! It was a tough course! Here’s my Gerry bear finding the 80 a little too easy. But I’m old and so is he, so small jumps are fine with me 😂
Volume down!!!!! Or you’ll hear my annoying voice. This little guy was very unhandled and quite feral 12 months ago. This is his first ever dental. This is usually how first timers go. I give them time to think and wait until they are fairly relaxed before I proceed to the next step. By the end of the treatment he was following me around 😂 So if you have a first timer, don’t worry. I will never put a scared horse in a position that will make the dental a bad experience. 💚 They may prefer to be eating grass, but I try and make it as gentle and fuss free as possible.
🌸🌸 THIS is why I love my job🌸🌸 This mare came to these owners as a rescue, I didn’t think she’d survive the month. She was emaciated and had ‘the look’ on her face. She smelt like death. She wasn’t far away. They’ve done an amazing job with her and I’m so glad to have been a very small part in this Beautiful girls recovery 💚 Hi Anna Just wanted to share with you a short video of miss sista, who is now 30 years young. Thankyou for talking such good care of her teeth she is just blossoming, since you have been doing them.
