I have been teaching owners to trim their own horses and trimming for others for around 8 years.
In the early days I was frustrated by the lack of advice and assistance out there and the fact that one of my horses was lamed by a barefoot trimmer! Following lots of very helpful advice from various trimmers in the USA, including Marjorie Smith (of www.barefoothorse.com) and also the various resources produced by Jaime jackson and Pete Ramey, I commenced trimming my horses myself and have never looked back. I am always learning from the hooves of the horses I trim and the more feedback I get from my clients the more I can refine my trim and obtain the result of the optimum performance for the particular horse.
I have studied various trim methods advocated by a variety of barefoot trimmers including....Strasser, KC La Pierre, Jaime Jackson, Pete Ramey and others. I have also trained with various hoof care professionals from the US and UK, including farriers. I know from dissections of hooves and legs of humanely destroyed horses of the damage that metal shoes do, but how lamenesses can be healed by a natural trim and careful management. This is why I decided to purchase a badly laminitic horse, abscessing on two feet, to find out for myself exactly what a natural trim and natural boarding could do. The following year this same horse took part in her first ever ride with Sport Endurance and I also cantered round training rides - barefoot - on a 'flat-footed' horse that had been declared by the vet to never be sound barefoot.
Barefoot or booted is the way to go. I am also a believer in the bitless approach and gentle horsemanship from the ground. Contact me for hooves and the bitless training approach including Clicker Training and horsemanship for non-horse people. My Hoofcare Practice covers much of the West Midlands including Worcestershire, Warwickshire and the Birmingham conurbation in approximately a 40 mile radius of the M42/M5 junction. Please enquire if you require my assistance outside this radius.
