Shulah Greatwater
Farrier

We are thrilled to welcome Shulah Greatwater as our on-site farrier at IHR Southwest in Owensville, IN and IHR Central in Frankfort, IN.  Shulah has over 25 years experience as a farrier/blacksmith, rehabilitating feet from various severe lameness problems including but not limited to:  Laminitis (founder), Navicular disease, under-slung heels, contracted Heels, cracked toes, and White line disease.

Shulah is a natural barefoot advocate and has had numerous success with horses that veterinarians had given up on.  As a barefoot advocate she will be happy to discuss the pros and cons of booting your horse while transitioning from shoes to barefoot.  "Horses were not born with shoes."

Shulah recently won a competitive trail ride with veterinarians in attendance judging, on a horse that had been so severely foundered that the coffin bones were exposed through the bottom of the feet.  After two years of rehabilitation, trail riding and conditioning, the mare was ridden entirely barefoot in a 16 mile race.

For more information about your horse's hoof care and soundness issues, or to make an appointment, you can contact Shulah directly at (859) 466-6896 (cell)

• $30.00 for the first trim
   
• $25.00 for the next trims if scheduled at regular 6-8 week intervals.
