Premium Local Service:
We live in the east side of Cincinnati, Ohio in Batavia. Local service is mostly limited to Warren, Clermont, and Hamilton counties in Ohio, and Kenton and Boone counties in Kentucky. We may service other areas, but a premium and expenses will be applied.
World Class Competition Service:
Our flagship horse show service is top-of-the-line, standard-setting service. Our many years of experience supporting the best show horses and people nationally and worldwide adds comfort to your event. Competitors and organizers are people who can not afford to settle for anything less than the best. We rely on our relationships established through the years as a farrier and an event organizer with other farriers, show officials, trainers, and riders to provide a uniquely valuable service.
Clinical and Lameness Service:
This service is based on referrals from clients and equine veterinarians. We work continuously to be as well educated and skilled in helping your horse be sound and you to understand the situation. Remember: we can supply the specialized custom shoes, materials, and information needed (but are often difficult or impossible to make or keep in stock) for your team to be successful.
Consulting:
I always represent the owner for the benefit of the horse(s). Issues concerning performance and lameness require a lot of experience and skill with working with various "independent" professionals who often have their own agendas. Focusing on two things: I can arm you with an understanding of your options so you can make decisions which are in-line with your budget and abilities. I can supply you, your farrier, and/or your veterinarian with the materials (i.e. specialized custom shoes, boots, etc.) and information which may be difficult or impossible for your team to supply.
Success Through Soundness Clinic Series:
Our clinic series provides owners, farriers, and veterinarians with demonstrations, information and discussions of modern and time tested hoof-care. Varied formats fit your needs from local 4-H to national events.
