I am a therapeutic farrier and educator at a top veterinary school teaching hospital. I try and take an evidence based approach to making hoof care decisions. I am not tied to any one trimming or shoeing method, technique, or line of thought. My work evolves as industry knowledge base advances with better empirical evidence. I do what I believe to be best for the HORSE first and foremost and will

not compromise the overall health of the horse for performance. I value continued learning and evolution of my skill and knowledge through practice and study. I attend regular continuing education events and clinics, as well as review research and literature to attain a better understanding of the biomechanics of the the equine system.

Two products in one!

Farrier’s Finish® disinfects and conditions the hoof, protecting from the bacterial and fungal invasions associated with Thrush and White Line Disease while supporting hoof capsule moisture balance in excessively wet conditions. Farrier’s Finish® contains phospholipids to allow the hoof to repel water in wet and muddy pastures during spring storms and conserves water in the dryer heat during Summer.

Farrier’s Finish® fights current infections but is non-caustic, with ingredients tame enough to use daily to prevent future problems and support hoof health. Farrier’s Finish® does not block oxygen to the hoof, does not kill healthy hoof tissue, and has the pleasant smell of tea tree oil.

The standard dose of bute is two grams per 1,000 pounds a day; Ronald Erkert, DVM says that not only does four grams per day not deliver any additional pain relief, but that it is a "huge amount, bordering on toxic levels": https://bit.ly/3CYqX3D

This image creatively compares different medical imaging techniques—X-ray, MRI, and CT scan—by applying them to a banana, showcasing how each technology visualizes internal structures differently. The X-ray provides a basic density-based outline, the MRI reveals detailed soft tissue structure, and the CT scan offers a cross-sectional view, emphasizing the differences in scanning technology. This unique representation highlights the advancements in medical imaging, radiology, and diagnostic tools used in healthcare.

Farrier’s Formula® does more than promote hoof growth. Farrier’s Formula® builds a healthier, stronger, and better-quality hoof while providing additional benefits to the horse, such as a glossier hair coat and support to the connective tissues of the joints and ligaments. You will see positive results within three months of feeding Farrier’s Formula®.

For best results, maintain a regular farrier schedule, provide daily hoof management, and protect the hoof from bacterial and fungal invasions with Farrier’s Finish® and Life Data® Hoof Clay®.
