Hello everyone! I have some bad news regarding my availability for the coming week. Unfortunately my truck needed to be towed to the dealership and my little volkswagen also is not currently running. I am trying to get a rental i can work out of but unfortunately the summer time there are not many places that offer trucks.

There’s something extra special about a custom piece… especially when it’s made just for a very important *little* client 💛

This one was designed and 3D printed with a very specific purpose in mind — and I can promise you, it’s going to make a big difference for someone small but mighty.

Alright, I’m curious…
What do you think it’s for?
And who do you think it’s for? 👀

Drop your guesses below — I’ll share the full story soon!

I’ve been quiet because I’ve been working on something big.

Introducing…

🐴 EQUINE CROCS 🐴

• Breathable
• Easy on/off
• Available in 6 colours (yes, including camo)
• “Sport mode” for turnout

Perfect for horses that “just lost a shoe again” 🙃

Barn trials have been… mixed.



Happy April Fools 😄

But if your horse *is* losing shoes, we should probably talk.

Hello everyone! Work will be slower for me, for the time being unfortunately. I have had recent and random bouts of dangerously low blood sugar (so ive heard) and as of now being tested for various things and my appointments will get in the way of my work.

It seems to happen mostly when I exert myself hard dispite eating fairly healthy. Fasting tends to extend my time before it happens, we are not sure yet though.

Please be patient my friends! If it takes me two-three days to respond dont be afraid to bug me if I missed you!

I try my best to be transparent with you guys! I will be slower with bookings and more diligent of my health while working. I am normally patient with some of your ponies but working with some more difficult horses exhausts me quite quickly right now as ive been quite tired.

Like most farriers I am definitely work first body second, I am in it for the long haul for you folks so I have to unfortunately slow down abit. The pace of my work may or may not be affected depending on how it goes at the docs office.

The very last thing I want is to be someone else's problem if and when somthing happens again! I do hope you all understand that i am NOT stopping my work right now. I will continue as normal albeit just slower pace. 🤠

Spring is coming… and your barn aisle knows it.

If you’ve walked into the barn lately and come out looking like you wrestled a yak, congratulations — shedding season has officially arrived.

But shedding isn’t just about hair flying everywhere. It’s your first real look at what’s been hiding under that winter coat.

Here’s what smart horse owners are paying attention to right now:

• Topline changes
• Dandruff or dry skin
• Rain rot starting under thick hair
• Weight loss you couldn’t see before
• Hoof condition after a long winter cycle
• Old rub marks from blankets

Spring grooming is basically your horse’s annual inspection.

This is the time to:
✔ Book your farrier before everyone panics at once
✔ Check saddle fit (winter fluff lies)
✔ Start gradual conditioning — don’t go from pasture puff to weekend warrior
✔ Review nutrition as workload changes
✔ Deep clean tack and blankets

And let’s talk hooves for a second. Spring moisture + thaw cycles can soften feet fast. Chipping, flare, and stretched white line love this time of year. Staying on schedule matters more than ever right now.

Your horse is transitioning from survival mode to performance mode so let's help them do it right.

What’s your horse shedding like this year? Normal? Patchy? Coming out in handfuls?

Drop a photo below — let’s see who’s winning (or losing) shedding season.
