Frequently Asked Questions

What's the advantage of glue-on shoes for horses with weak hoof walls?
Glue-on shoes eliminate the need for nails, which means no additional stress on a hoof wall that's already fragile or damaged. Modern glue-on systems are durable enough for horses in regular work and give the hoof wall time to grow back stronger without the pressure of repeated nailing.
How often should a horse in regular training be shod?
A horse in consistent work typically needs shoeing every five to seven weeks to maintain proper hoof balance and prevent the shoe from becoming loose or uneven. Letting the schedule slip too long leads to overgrown hooves, imbalance, and added stress on the lower limb.
Is cold shoeing as effective as hot shoeing for most horses?
For the majority of horses, cold shoeing produces excellent results when the farrier has good skills and uses quality materials. Hot shoeing allows for more precise customization, but cold shoeing is a practical and well-proven method that's widely used for horses across all disciplines.
What should Morris County horse owners watch for between farrier visits?
Check your horse's feet a few times a week for loose nails, risen clinches, or shoes that have shifted out of position. Also watch for any changes in how the horse moves or stands, since subtle changes in gait can signal that a shoe has shifted or a hoof issue is developing.
Can a farrier help with a horse that's been stumbling during rides?
Stumbling can have several causes, but hoof balance and breakover angle are common contributing factors that a farrier can directly address. If stumbling persists after a shoeing adjustment, a veterinary evaluation to rule out neurological or musculoskeletal issues is worth pursuing.
Does Miller Horseshoeing work with horses at boarding facilities in Morristown?
Yes, working at boarding barns and equestrian facilities is a standard part of how most farriers in the region operate. It's worth letting your barn manager know you've scheduled an appointment, since they can confirm the horse is available and that a safe, quiet space is set up for the work.
