What to include with a Montgomery County request

For several horses, send the full horse list and current farrier cycle so the visit can be sized correctly before a route date is offered.

FAQ
Questions before requesting a farrier near Montgomery County
What should I include in an appointment request?
Include the barn town, horse count, each horse's barefoot or shod status, the work due, last farrier date, handling notes, and preferred timing.
How often should a horse see a farrier?
The interval varies with growth, season, hoof condition, workload, and whether the horse is barefoot or shod. Share the current schedule so the next interval can be discussed for the individual horse.
What should be ready at the barn?
A dry, reasonably level, well-lit work area with room around the horse is a useful starting point. Horses should be caught and ready, with a capable handler available when needed.
Can several horses be booked together?
Multi-horse requests can be considered. List every horse and the expected work so enough appointment time can be planned.
Do you provide emergency lost-shoe service?
Same-day and emergency availability are not guaranteed. Send the location, affected foot, timing, hoof photos, and current comfort so we can confirm the next possible step.
