Our Story
I have my best days when I can help you, help your horse! I am dedicated to helping horses be the best they can be by cultivating healthy, functional hooves. This applies to donkeys and mules as well! Healthy hooves are the result of more than just hoof care, and I'd like to encourage you to learn more about the different ways you can promote your horse's health and performance. I understand that keeping horses can be expensive, and I consider the financial aspects of all my recommendations. Having a happy, healthy horse doesn't have to break the bank! I am a student practitioner with Pacific Hoof Care Practitioners, and when I'm not caring for your equines, I am riding my own or spending time with my family. Ride safe and thank you for visiting! Education: I am constantly learning new things about horses and I consider that one of the best parts of my job. However, formal education, coursework and mentorships are also a big part of my continuing education. 1996: A.S. degree in Pack Station and Stable Operations from Feather River College, Quincy, CA 2001: B.S. degree in Environmental and Natural Resource Science from University of Nevada, Reno 2014- ongoing: clinics and mentorships with Pete Ramey and members of PHCP 2016: membership with Pacific Hoof Care Practitioners Dr. Kellon's online courses: Cushing's and Insulin Resistance- 2015 Basic Reading of Radiographs- 2015 Arthritis and Other Lameness- 2015 NRC Plus- 2015 Vaccinations short-course- 2016 Worming short-course- 2016 Nutrition for the Performance Horse- 2017 Neurological and Muscular Disorders- 2017 2016: The Smart Way to Feed Horses- webinar with Carol Layton 2017: Equine Dental- webinar with Wendy Bryant, EqDT
