I have been around horses my whole life. I have been riding since I was 4 years old.. My mothers love for horses has fortunately (or unfortunately- however you look at it!) been passed on to me- and to my 2 year old daughter as well.
I have studied under a gentleman who was teaching clinics on Natural Trimming, and worked as an apprentice for a bit- Then was well on my way to finding my own nich in the world of hoof care.
I have studied a lot of different Hoof care specialist's work- Including Pete Ramey, Jaime Jackson and Strasser. I don't agree with everybodys techniques, or go with everything I have studied- But I can say that I have agreed with just about everything that Pete Ramey has to say on Hoof Care- and he will continue to be the 1 person I tell people to look into when pursuing a career (or general knowledge!) of hoof care.
I have had 7+ Years of experience trimming, 12 years of ongoing training experience, and 18 years of horse experience in general.
