The natural alternative
Happy Hoofwear
There is nothing 'natural' about a horseshoe. Metal shoes have been around for hundreds of years and the design has not changed- until now. We now proudly offer Happy Hoofwear- The metal shoe alternative.
This flexible, lightweight shoe allows for proper three dimensional distortion of the hoof capsule, promoting growth, circulation, and overall hoof health. These shoe outlast traditonal horseshoes 3 to 1 and cost about the same to apply!
Available in 3 sizes and 8 colors: Clear, Black, Purple, Hot Pink, Hot Orange, Red, Black, Turquoise, and Hot Lime. Visit the Happy Hoofwear Page for more information.
Founder and Navicular Recovery
Wilbur Before Wilbur After
Did you know: Founder is the second leading cause of death among horses in the United States?
Don't loose your horse to this deadly disease! I offer many new, cutting edge treatments that help your horse feel better now, and in many cases return to complete soundness, all without the use of a traditional metal shoe!
Helping You Navigate Navicular
Navicular Disease or Navicular Syndrome is the most misdiagnosed and confusing lameness your horse can be labeled with. Many times when a horse has an unidentifiable lameness in the caudal (rear) aspect of the hoof, the horse is diagnosed 'navicular' or having 'navicular changes'.
Navicular does not have to be a career ending diagnosis for your horse. Please see my ARTICLES tab to learn more about Navicular and the latest treatments available.
