We worked on an interesting case today, hopefully got this guy a lot closer to his Tevis dream! It's always fun to collaborate with Doc about special cases he sees and then make the changes needed to help a horse move better.

Chilli got her first trim today! Good hoof care habits start early, and she is already learning to allow her hooves to be worked on. She is just delightful, and we are happy to help shape her hoofcare experience.

Some of the perks of this job are baby snuggles!!😍 We needed to check mama Millie's hooves, so I lingered and loved on baby Chilli! She is quite the lovebug!

We got an early start today with these cuties! Taffy wanted to be first, because, first dibs on cookies! Next up was Ellie getting her special fancy shoes, then we trimmed the big, beautiful Lady, and finished up with the elegant Willow. Now everybody's ready for summer rides!

Boxer's mama called this week, and said he was super sore and not wanting to put weight on his front feet. Well, Boxer, who normally wears shoes, had pulled them last week, cavorting in the pasture with a new mare who was added to his herd. His feet were too broken to hold a shoe properly, unless a little magic was applied. Bob fit an aluminum shoe to him, then drilled four sizeable holes along the nail line. Then attached the shoe using four carefully placed nails. Then, after wrapping the foot with cellophane, he injected a hoof glue product into the holes, which then filled all the broken spots along the hoofwall. After drying and removing the wrap, a bit of rasping, and boom! Boxer trotted happily off.

It was Odie and Polly's turn to get their feet trimmed. Today was our second time with them, and they did so much better! Especially Odie. He has decided we are okay. Like I told their mama, having a good farrier experience is important. The time you spend to earn their trust is an investment in their future.

We got to meet two new clients today, say hi to Amy and Doodle!!

We finished up this very windy day with these two beauties, Hope and Ben. Hope is five now, and we've been doing her feet since she was born. It's neat to watch her grow. And Ben, he is the sweetest. He really wanted to nibble Bob's pony tail today, so I had to intervene, but other than that they both stood nicely for Bob, even with the gusty wind.

It's always a good day when you get to hang out with Juli!

Rosie got radiographs today, so we worked with a vet team from Loomis to get her a new shoe prescription. She has some lameness issues that we have been addressing since her diagnosis a few years ago, and sometimes slight changes need to be made to keep her comfortable.

We are getting Sierra ready to work! His little owner is ready to ride!

Happy Saturday, folks! We started off with a dose of cuteness from Velcro and Mimi, then worked with several more of our awesome clients, Tumbleweed, W***y, Shotzy, Willow, Ellie, Huck and PJ..

We are starting with our old friends Jack and Pistol today, working down by their stalls because construction is being done at the shoeing area. Looking forward to seeing what it looks like when they finish!
**added some more pics, because the fun part is the little pasture facing this area. It's got an assortment of critters- a bull, donkey, horse, goats, sheep, etc. Made for some interesting moments!

We are doing some rain catchup today, starting with these three old friends. Say hi to Dakota, Zaeda and Lexi😁
