When 32yo George decides to take a rest just before his turn to have his hooves done, you don’t ask the old man to get up 💜

Watch out!

It’s bad this year for lami and abscesses are still popping up too…

As relieved as we all are to finally see the end of a very long winter, please monitor closely for signs of discomfort in your horses…

The warm dry weather brings its own set of issues..

Occasionally I am asked if I charge the same for minis as for horses. I remember once being asked if I charge less because I wasn’t able to trim all four feet (because the horse was so scared and tried to take my head off). Once I was even asked if the first trim for a foal would be free as per “tradition”. And I did trim it for free as it happens, but I still put diesel in my car to get there. It climbed all over me because the owner had never lifted a foot before the appointment, and broke my finger in the process. But if your horse is super nervous, and i come out to give him a scratch, pick up the hooves and give you some pointers on how to help him be more comfortable with hoofcare, you’re paying for my time, not by the hoof and it frustrates me that the question would ever come up. Don’t get me wrong, I’ll gladly help people out - but that’s at my discretion. When it’s expected, because the horse is tiny or he was terrified/needed seds/doesn’t have much growth, please don’t assume that the appointment will be cheaper. My education/insurance/tools/fuel/time/risk/car maintenance etc are covered by a flat rate.

Wishing all of you & your horses a very Happy New Year 🥳 🦄 😘
