🖨️ The Coronary Band
Also known as: The Coronet —
the hoof’s growth engine.

📍 Located just below the hairline, the coronary band is the soft tissue ridge that wraps around the top of the hoof. It’s small but mighty.

🖨️ Think of it like a printer.

🗓️ It produces and grows the outer hoof wall, layer by layer, from the top down—24/7, 365 days a year.

The coronary band is the hoof’s printhead—constantly “printing” new hoof wall from the top down.
If the printer malfunctions, the hoof can’t grow correctly.
👉 Cracks, ripples, growth rings, and weak walls often trace back to issues right here.

💡 Why it matters:
• It produces all hoof wall tissue
• Injuries, extreme moisture or
pressure here =
long-term damage below
• It’s a sensitive indicator of health,
circulation, and trauma
• Damage here doesn’t just heal—
it grows out, slow and visible

💥 Protecting the coronary band means protecting the entire hoof.

🧬 From coronet to ground, what you see at the bottom started at the top.

💡 Fun Fact: The term “coronary” comes from corona, Latin for crown—a fitting name for the structure that quite literally crowns the hoof

We recently worked on a mildly laminitic horse who wasn’t responding well to a center of rotation leverage reduction shoe. He was still uncomfortable, and something wasn’t quite right.

So, we stepped back—literally—and let him show us what he needed.

We stood him on an EVA pad and watched his posture change. His body told us he needed more mechanics—not less.

That’s when we transitioned to a modified Steward 2.0 Clog, a wooden therapeutic base that allows the horse to settle into its own mechanical comfort. Within minutes, his stance improved, his eyes softened, and he was finally able to relax.

Sometimes, the best tool is the one that lets the horse do the talking. The same application won’t work on every horse, just like we all have different preferences for tennis shoes!

🇺🇸Freedom, 🔥Farriery & ❤️Family

On this Independence Day, we pause to remember what freedom really means:

The ability to chase a dream, serve our communities, raise our families, and work on good horses.

Here’s to sound horses, peaceful barns, and a little extra time with the people who remind you why you do what you do.
❤️🤍💙

💥 The Power of Relationships in the Farrier Industry 💪

This has always been a bit of a controversial topic in the farrier world…but this photo is a perfect example of why strong industry relationships matter.

Over the past 10 days, we had to “phone a friend” twice. One call was for a horse headed to Nationals who mangled a shoe in Alabama. We reached out to a former employee, Zach, who went out of his way to meet our client in a parking lot before heading to his full-time job. Ironically, he had the exact shoe needed—even though he doesn’t usually stock them.

The other call was to Clay, another past employee, for a horse further south who decided to run laps in the pasture and lost a shoe. He didnt have the necessary shoe, so we mailed him the replacement, and he took care of it without hesitation.

Both Zach and Clay are talented farriers, and neither blinked when asked to help. We appreciate them! That’s what this industry should be about—community, support, and keeping horses going, no matter what.

In the farrier world, strong professional relationships aren’t just good for us—they’re great for the horses and clients we serve. When farriers support and collaborate with one another, it creates a powerful network of shared knowledge, experience, and resources.

Whether it’s a unique case that requires a second opinion, a referral to a trusted farrier in another region, or a last-minute hand on a busy day, having those connections means we’re never working alone—and neither are our clients.

This network allows us to:
🔹 Collaborate on complex cases
🔹 Learn from each other’s experiences
🔹 Refer clients to trusted professionals when they move or travel
🔹 Stay current with best practices and innovations
🔹 Provide better service with broader expertise

When your farrier has strong relationships in the industry, you benefit from a community, not just one set of hands. We may work independently, but we’re never isolated—and that’s a win for every horse.
