Frequently Asked Questions

Do you shoe gaited horses like Tennessee Walkers or Missouri Fox Trotters?
Yes, gaited horse shoeing is one of the listed specialties. Shoeing a gaited horse correctly requires understanding how shoe weight and placement affect stride, so it's not the same process as standard performance shoeing.
What are glue-on shoes and when would my horse need them?
Glue-on shoes attach using a special adhesive rather than nails, which makes them ideal for horses with compromised hoof walls, thin walls, or those recovering from an injury or surgery. They're also sometimes used for foals or horses in rehab situations where nailing isn't advisable.
My horse was diagnosed with laminitis. Can a farrier help?
Yes, therapeutic farriery plays a significant role in laminitis management. Corrective shoeing can help redistribute weight and reduce pressure on the sensitive laminae, and it's typically done in coordination with your veterinarian's treatment plan.
How early should foals have their first trim?
Most farriers recommend evaluating foals within the first few weeks of life, especially if you notice any deviation in leg alignment. Early trimming can help correct minor conformational issues before they become harder to address.
What's the difference between hot shoeing and cold shoeing?
Cold shoeing means shaping and fitting the shoe at room temperature, while hot shoeing involves heating the metal so it can be shaped more precisely and then seated directly against the hoof for a custom fit. Hot shoeing generally produces a tighter fit and is preferred for horses with irregular hoof shapes.
How often do draft horses need to be shod compared to lighter breeds?
Draft horses typically need farrier attention every six to eight weeks, similar to light breeds, but the work itself is more physically demanding due to their hoof size and weight. Not all farriers are equipped to handle drafts, so it's worth confirming that upfront.
