Frequently Asked Questions

What are glue-on shoes and when are they used?
Glue-on shoes are horseshoes attached using an adhesive rather than nails, which makes them a good option for horses with thin hoof walls, post-surgery sensitivity, or hooves too damaged to hold a nail properly. They require careful prep and application but can be a real solution when traditional shoeing isn't possible.
What's the difference between cold shoeing and hot shoeing?
Cold shoeing means fitting and nailing a pre-made shoe without heating it, which works well for horses with standard hoof shapes. Hot shoeing involves heating the metal and shaping it at the forge for a custom fit, which is more precise and often preferred for horses with unusual conformation or performance demands.
How does mobile farrier service work in practice?
A mobile farrier brings all tools and equipment directly to your property, so you don't have to trailer your horse anywhere. You'll need a reasonably flat, dry area to work in, and ideally a spot with decent footing so the horse stands comfortably during the session.
How do I know if my horse needs performance shoeing versus standard shoeing?
Standard shoeing is fine for most pleasure horses, but if your horse competes, works on varied terrain, or has movement-related issues, performance shoeing addresses specific things like breakover point, traction, and balance that affect how the horse moves under load. Your farrier can assess whether your horse would benefit from the upgrade.
Can Monmouth County's sandy soil affect my horse's hooves?
Yes, soil conditions do influence hoof health over time. Sandy, dry ground can contribute to brittle walls, while wet or muddy conditions soften the hoof and increase the risk of thrush and white line disease. Your farrier can recommend maintenance strategies and shoeing approaches that account for your specific footing conditions.
What should I have ready before the farrier arrives?
Have your horse caught and haltered, with hooves reasonably clean if possible. It's also helpful to let your farrier know in advance about any behavioral quirks, past injuries, or vet instructions relevant to the feet. A safe, dry place to work makes the appointment go much smoother for everyone.
