David Farmilo Hoof Care Course Attendance
I have now returned from a course with David Farmilo an Australian Accredited Master Farrier with over 50 years of farriery experience. This course and the practical work I did using his methods have now encouraged me to shoe with a David Familo hoof line, a tool David designed and invented. This tool is something I will now be using to make sure every horse I shoe will have their hooves consistently trimmed so each hoof is correctly balanced regardless of the size of the horse, before I put on a shoe or leave it barefoot.
For more information on this new technique and photos click here
As most of you know I am pretty proactive in educating hoof care and especially with winter coming up we need to look out for problems in our horses hooves. To many times i see my clients hang up there bridle for the winter and spell there horse with very little thought in what state there feet will be in once the weather comes right and the show scene is back on .Seedy toe is my enemy and with a little help from WORLDS BEST HOOF OIL & regular hoof trimming we will stop the water getting in that causes so many hoof problems.
By just painting WBHO on 2-3 times a week we help this.

Big bids for harness great's shoes
Last year's New Zealand Trotting Cup winner Monkey King has helped line the pockets of many punters this year with an outstanding season on the race track, but now the speedster pacer is giving a little bit back.
A framed set of the harness racing great's shoes have been framed and are up for auction on Trade Me with proceeds going to Cure Kids, which supports research into life-threatening childhood illnesses.
The idea came from Monkey King's farrier Adam White. He and his sister, Abbe, have seen what was originally going to be a good deed for a friend, grow into something much larger. read more…..
Many questions about hoof problems are often asked of Adam so some of the more common problems he deals with are covered in the Frequently Asked Question page.
