A very Happy Father's Day to all the Dads out there.

It makes my day when a client shows me things like this. Look at how much that heel is opening up!

A trip to middle TN today for Scoot Boot fittings. She was originally going to use the online fitting services but decided to contact me for an in person fitting. Online services are helpful but having a boot physically put on the horse's hoof really shows first hand if this brand will work for your horse and what size is best for your horse. I can also help with many fitting issues that may come up to improve your experience with Scoot Boots. I can fit minis, mules, and even draft horses!

Did my first pair of glue on Scoot Skins today. It is not the prettiest job but I am confident they will stay on the expected 4 weeks.

I just left from doing a fitting. Unfortunately I had to tell this client that scoot boots are not suited for her horse due to the shape of her feet. This is the first time I had to tell this to a potential client. I do NOT charge for these fitting services. I would rather a person be happy with a product and see a horse live a healthy and happy life than make money. I am glad I was able to help her and prevent her from buying something that ultimately would not work.

We gave this little girl her second trim ever. We are taking it slow with her and she is still getting used to the feeling of having her feet worked on. But she still did really well. Also had some scoot boot clients that sent me their pics from trail rides in their new boots. No slipping and no losing the boot. All the while their feet are protected from various challenging terrain.

Amber Green Lee you are doing an amazing job on this mare!

It was a full day between trims and Scoot Boot fittings. This guy is wearing our enduros. Spirit Hope Foster just loves that she can go through different terrain and canter while her horse feels secure in his footing. To top it all off, I got extra lovins from a soft muzzle. ❤️

Hey folks! My page has been quiet but my days have not. Lots of trimmings happening. Lots of fittings for new Scoot Boots. People are really loving these for their trail rides. Soon to come...Scoot Skins! These are a glue on option for those who don't want to mess with boots but still want a healthy alternative to shoes.

Had some trims and a fitting. This boy just got his shoes pulled by their trimmer and was very tender. He required a toe wedge for a better fit. He got pads for more comfort for his tender feet. And he got mud straps (right) which are recommended for the trail rides she is doing. Happy trails!

This is a wonderful picture of why the toe is important. Too much tow is not good. But you know what? They do need some toe. Toe and heels are there for a reason. That is why we trim to balance a hoof.

🩵Life Lessons of a Horse Person:

1. People who don't take care of their own horses will be the first ones to tell you how to care for yours.

2. You should never buy a cheap girth!

3. A handsome horse who's badly behaved will become a lot less attractive in about 15 minutes.

4. People who think they have nothing more to learn about riding, hit the ground the hardest.

5. Children and ponies are natural allies and often have identical dispositions.

6. The richest horse people often look the poorest.

7. The closeness of a horse is one of the sweetest smells in the world.

8. A solitary ride through the bush is more beneficial than six months with the best psychiatrist.

9. The worse a person rides, the more likely they are going to blame it on the horse!

10. The best thing about going to the barn first thing in the morning is that horses don't care how you look.

11. If a dealer insists a horse is worth twice what he's asking, he's usually worth half that much.

12. The best way to appreciate how another person rides is to get on
their horse.

13. I can recognize another horse person no matter what town, city, state, county or country I visit.

14. You can never have too many hoof picks.

15. It is not wise to argue with something that outweighs you buy 1,000 pounds.

16. I'd rather have a horse with a perfect mind than a perfect head.

17. Eight hours is too long to be in the saddle!

18. If you think you have left the water on in the barn - you have,
if you think you have closed the pasture gate - you haven't.

19. When someone asks you if you like their horse, always say yes.

20. The happiest people I know own horses, dogs, cats and at least one
deranged goat or donkey.

21. If you're looking for the perfect horse you will never own one.

22. Owning a horse can either make a marriage or break it.

23. I can't stand to have an empty stable.

24. You shouldn't talk about your first place ribbon to someone that
came in second.

25. If someone says that a horse has a little buck, it has a BIG buck.

26. If we need rain, schedule a show, if you want it to quit raining,
put down fertilizer or grass seed.

27. I've never warmed up to someone that didn't want to walk down to
the stables.

28. A clean stable and a sparkling horse are among life's great pleasures.

29. Even giving away horses can be too expensive, and free horses are never truly free.

30. No matter how badly behaved you are, your horse always gives you a
second chance.

31. A more expensive horse doesn't make a better one.

32. Losing a horse can break your heart, but it will have been worth it.
