Hi All,
My latest farrier seems to be unwilling to come and do my two horses (one trim, one fully shod) ... so I would love some recommendations. One horse is staying in shoes until to undo damage done by a previous farrier ... and we hope to go barefoot next year with both beasties.
We are on the Derbyshire/Staffordshire/Leicestershire borders (postcode area DE12, near to Ashby de la Zouch). Unfortunately farriers in the Melton Mowbray area are a bit too far away from us (I've had 2 recommended to me previously, so you appear to be quite lucky to have a surplus of good farriers in this area!)
Both horses are very well behaved with the farrier, but I do not want an 'aggressive' type farrier as this just makes them nervous. If you could recommend a farrier who actually answers their phone that would be absolutely wonderful!!!
Thank you all in advance for any help you can give me.
