With decades in the saddle helping produce world champions, Ross has an eye for balance vast experience working with Speed Event and performance horses to carefully and effectively shoe every horse for ultimate performance. Ross includes owner, trainer and veterinary advice when evaluating movement, and developing a shoeing protocol for each particular horse to perform to its best ability. He truly cares for horses and treats each animal with utmost respect and has tremendous patience, having worked with hundreds of Miniature Horses and foals. To promote early hoof care, your weanling's first trim is free.
If your preference is "Natural Hoof Care", Ross will gladly work with you to maintain your horse's natural foot. Most of our barrel horses are barefoot, including LRM Lightning Watch- 2008 WPRA World Champion Barrel Futurity horse, and LRM Rockstar George- 2011 WPRA World Champion 2D Barrel Futurity horse and 3rd overall WPRA 1D Barrel Futurity standings. |
