Are you tired of farriers not calling you back? Tired of them not listening to your concerns about your horse? Then you are looking in the right place now!
I am a farrier located in Lexington KY but I travel throughout Ky. I am regularly in Louisville and the bowling green area and many places in between. I served a four year apprenticeship shoeing race horses. I have a lot of experience with lame horses because of that.
I have been under thousands of horses. I have experience with cold shoeing as well as glueing and patching.
I have experience in many breeds of horses, from minis to draft. From performance to pasture pets.
I charge very competitive rates and I understand that in today's economy what that means. I try not to charge trip fees as many do. I usually don't unless it is only 1 horse and I am making a special trip just for you and even then I usually just charge for gas and not my time driving

I promise that I'll always return phone calls.
I'll always keeps my appointments
I'll always try to do the best for your horse and the best for your pocket book

2 shoes and trim $60
4 shoes $85
Borium and drill tek are $10 extra because of the cost of the shoes
