Does your horse need its hooves trimmed or balanced? How about a new set of shoes? The team at Sunshine Coast Farrier Services are specialists in equine hoof care across the Sunshine Coast, Gympie, Woodford and surrounding areas.
We have to combine a blacksmith’s skills of fabricating, adapting and adjusting metal shoes with some of a veterinarian’s knowledge of horse anatomy, particularly the physiology of their legs. If we see your horse requires more care, we will happily recommend treatment by a vet. We also have emergency stabling for therapeutic cases.
Sunshine Coast Farrier Services owner, Adam Tighe, and his staff are committed to developing their skills through training and many hours in their Landsborough forge.
Our family-run business provides:
Enjoy the peace of mind knowing your horse is in professional hands with Sunshine Coast Farrier Services. Great care and consideration are high priorities in any service we deliver. When it comes to shoeing, our farriers will ensure they have a level surface for the shoe to be nailed to and keep the wall of the hoof fairly even.
Our farrier will make or select a shoe to suit your horse and the job you want your animal to do. Shoes can be fitted hot or cold, but shoeing hot seals up tubules that have a membrane in them, keeping the moisture in the hoof. It will also cauterise any infections.
No aspect of maintenance should be put off. Contact our experts to schedule regular check-ups to suit you and your horse.
Sunshine Coast Farrier Services owner Adam Tighe has more than 20 years’ experience in the industry. Now with fully qualified farrier, Jason Roberts, and apprentice, Tyler Ray May, he provides a professional and reliable service across the Sunshine Coast, Gympie, Woodford and surrounding areas.
