Hoof care can feel overwhelming for many of us—how do we choose the right farrier for our horses needed, support them during the appointment (especially when they struggle), and work together as a team to ensure we are working towards more cooperative care?

In this episode of the Horse Medicine Leadership Podcast, host Brittany Ashworth sits down with Brianna Ferguson of Evergreen Equine Wellness to explore the world of consent-based hoof care.

Brianna is a wealth of knowledge! We discuss common hoof issues, key qualities to look for in a practitioner, and practical ways to support your horse’s hooves between visits.
