White Line Disease (WLD) is a fungal infection of the white line (anatomical part that is the binding tissue between the hoof wall and sole). When this infection spreads, it eats away at the white line, which causes separation. The infected tissue must be resected and opened up, so that healthy hoof can grow. Above are photos of the shoeing after we resected the WLD.

Why use a toe clip? Primarily used on front feet, a toe clip on a strong upright foot, helps stabilize the hoof capsule, and take away the sheering pressure from the nails. And it looks realllll nice 😮‍💨✅•

PSA:
I flew home to my family in SC for a short trip, but it was extended when the hurricane caused a lot of damage. Please understand any rescheduling that is needed to accommodate for the time spent here. I’ll be back in AZ tomorrow to get back shoeing! Thank you to everyone who is understanding and praying.

Love what you do, and you’ll never work a day in your life.••••

Gotta love when our horses make the paper. Ole’ Gray is a Navicular horse that we keep sound, so he can keep roping! Very happy with this tough old joker.

With a bit of practice and studying, we are now a Certified practice. The CF (Certified Farrier) accreditation is no simple task. It’s a 3 part test, that focuses on the importance of safe, sound, and educated horse-shoeing. It upholds a standard of farriery, that the AFA (American Farrier Association) deems necessary, to perform hoof-care on a professional basis. Thank you to all of our clientele who have supported the business so far, and we are excited for what’s coming next.

A horse won’t self-trim if he’s not being ridden, staying in the run/stall isn’t enough. Keep em’ scheduled, and see their feet improve.
