Handling all Breeds & Specializing in Drafts!!

Genesis Farriers

At Genesis Farriers,

we believe that

a balanced hoof

is the foundation for

proper hoof health

and equine performance.

 

Whether the horse is to be

shod or left barefoot,

Dave strives toward achieving a

naturally balanced hoof

for every horse he trims.
