Frequently Asked Questions

Do you offer same-day emergency farrier service in Columbia, MO?
Yes, Williams Farrier Co. provides emergency farrier services for situations like lost shoes, hoof cracks, or acute lameness. Availability depends on the day, so call (652) 555-2489 as early as possible to get on the schedule.
What's involved in laminitis treatment from a farrier?
Farrier-based laminitis care typically includes corrective trimming to restore proper hoof angles and therapeutic shoes that shift weight away from the toe. The farrier often works alongside your veterinarian to coordinate the treatment plan, especially during acute episodes.
Can you shoe draft horses, or only light breeds?
Williams Farrier Co. handles draft horse shoeing, which involves heavier steel stock and wider shoes than those used for lighter breeds. It's more physically demanding work, and not every farrier in the area takes it on.
What is natural hoof care, and is it right for my horse?
Natural hoof care refers to a barefoot or minimal-intervention approach, using trimming techniques designed to mimic how wild horses' hooves naturally wear. It works well for many pleasure horses and some trail horses, but horses in hard work or with specific hoof issues may still need shoes.
How often should my horse be seen by a farrier?
Most horses need a farrier visit every 6 to 8 weeks, though horses in heavy work or with corrective needs may be on a shorter cycle. Your farrier will recommend a schedule after evaluating your horse's hoof growth rate and overall condition.
What should I do to prepare my horse before the farrier arrives?
Have your horse caught, haltered, and in a clean, dry, well-lit area before the appointment. If hooves are caked with mud or manure, a quick rinse and dry makes the farrier's job easier and leads to better results.
