Bare Hoof Track Oasis

10/28/2024

So... track post. Long time coming.

Fencing. Is always in progress.

shelter. I still haven't chosen what size of shelter to build for permanent structures. Placement is also a massive hold back on where. I'm nervous to place them so I'm not regreting doing it differently. I have so many things I could build but where to place it... I hate doing something temporary just to redo it again.

New track open and in use. We have soft dirt for now with natural rock in it. Which the horses are choosing to come and go as they please nibbling on the netted hay. That we give out 3 times a day.

Hay. We fuss over getting hay keeping hay stored. And buying hay. Sourcing hay. Idk who obsesses over hay more. Owners of horses. The struggle out here is real but I see thriving horses with more movement becoming more healthy and fit. Fall cool weather has arrived.

I'll try to post more photos to the progress as I can.

Reminder of my price increase and policy changes back in July 2023.

Effective Jan 1 2024. for all current and new clients.

All New Clients, or each new horse is $75 first appointment.

Maintenance trims:
$60/each horse for established clients, this will be any trim scheduled before 12 weeks since previous trim. Did we go past Past 12 weeks?? It will be $75. No Exceptions.

Most farriers and hoof care providers have clients on a 5-8 week trim/shoe cycle. I run 6-12 weeks depending on your horses hoof growth.

Cancelation fee? I'm tempted as other providers charge.

Have we created metobolic issues within our horses from our ways of equine husbandry?

I say YES. Unfortunately.

I have seen and studied horses for 35 of my 42 on earth. and seeing horses with varied care all those times. I've seen it all. All types of hay. Feeds. Issues horses have. And when diving into hoofcare 20 yrs ago, having my own horse have Cushing, and rehabbing many from laminitis.

I do believe we as a whole equine community have created a lot of the issues our horses suffer from.
HAy farmers and agriculture industry growing hay for optimal high concentrated nutrient dense hay, down to the commercial feed using junk fillers in feeds like fermented by products soy, and many more.

Limited feedings, along with living in limited spaced for long periods of time. Some born in small spaces with limited turn out throughout life. Or turned away for winter pasture.
Over the yrs studies have been done that show their systems don't do well in those setting and become injured, metobolic, or have cushing(more on those topics to come).

Hence the track system was designed as more species appropriate living system. Creating movement, and healthy body movements. Shelter available enrichment.

Here we are creating an Oasis for the health of the horses and bring awareness to these problems I'm seeing so(to) often.

This is a new page. I hope it grows to connect with horse owners to help everyone's horses thrive.
