Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between hot shoeing and cold shoeing?
Hot shoeing involves heating the shoe in a forge until it's pliable, then shaping it to the hoof and checking the fit by briefly setting it against the hoof wall before nailing. Cold shoeing uses pre-made shoes fitted without heat, which works well in many cases but doesn't allow for the same level of custom fit that hot shoeing provides.
How much does horseshoeing cost in the Omaha area?
Pricing varies depending on the type of service, with basic barefoot trims generally running less than a full hot shoe reset. Draft horse shoeing often costs more due to the larger materials and additional time involved. Contact Adams Horseshoeing directly for current pricing specific to your horse's needs.
Is barefoot trimming a good option for horses in Nebraska?
It can be, depending on the horse's hoof quality, diet, and the surfaces it works on regularly. Nebraska's varied ground conditions, from soft pasture in wet seasons to hard-packed summer soil, mean some horses transition well to barefoot while others do better with shoes. A proper hoof assessment helps determine what's realistic.
How do I find a reliable farrier schedule in the Omaha metro?
Most horse owners set up recurring appointments every six to eight weeks so the farrier can plan their route and you don't have to chase down availability each time. Calling ahead and getting on a regular rotation is the easiest way to avoid letting your horse go too long between visits.
Do draft horses in Nebraska need shoeing year-round?
That depends on what the horse does and the conditions it lives in. Working drafts pulling equipment or moving on hard surfaces benefit from shoes year-round, while a pasture horse might do fine with periodic barefoot trims. Adams Horseshoeing can help you evaluate what makes sense for your specific animal and workload.
What should I do if my horse throws a shoe between farrier visits?
Call your farrier to let them know, especially if the horse is in work or showing any soreness. In the meantime, limit the horse to softer footing if possible to protect the unshod hoof from chipping or bruising. Don't try to nail the shoe back on yourself, since an improperly set nail can cause serious injury.
