Testimonials
This page was going to have a list of owners giving a testimonial in their own words about their barefoot horses.
Usually this is what you would find and I certainly could write a list here of the great things people have said to me and/or about me, my trimming and their journey to barefoot or to soundness.
Things like:
My horse is now sound, thankyou so much
or my horse has never moved better......

But I have decided to be different !

I have decided to dedicate this page to my clients & friends & their wonderful horses to celebrate:
Their journey from shoes to barefoot
Their journey with navicular or founder
Their courage to go against what they were always taught and what some of their friends still try to tell them
Their courage to look others in the eye and say "I won't do that to MY horse" !


So, thankyou to all of you that take the journey and most of all for your trust in me!
I sincerely hope that your stories will help inspire others to follow in your hoof prints.
