About Me

I have been involved in horses all my life. From pony club as a child to 25 years of professional involvement in the equine industry my enthusiasm and love of horses has always remained.

During this period I have ridden and competed in many disciplines including eventing, show-jumping, and race riding. Having broken-in many horses (of all breeds), and owned and trained gallopers, I feel I have an understanding of the joys, disappointments and problems of horse ownership.

I take my motto "prompt, professional, reliable" seriously and make a point of being on time for appointments. I appreciate your time is valuable!!

Being dedicated to providing a high standard of farriery work I regularly attend clinics and seminars in order to keep up to date with the latest advances in veterinary science and technology.

   I am a proud member of the Victorian Master Farriers Association and subscribe to their farrier code of conduct.

Quality Products

I pride myself on using only the highest quality of products for the horses I work on. From the very best nails and shoes right through to the tools of the trade I only use the best and refuse to compromise on quality. My philosophy is that any job is only as good as its weakest link.  Wherever possible I use Australian made products to help support local industry.

Going Green

We all like to try and do our bit to help the environment.  Wherever possible I try to keep my bookings in a localised area on any particular day in order to cut down on fuel usage. Further, I always take used shoes home and once a week I take the used shoes along with worn out rasps and tools to the local steel recyclers.

PROMPT, PROFESSIONAL, RELIABLE
