Equine Veterinary Podiatry
We provide the horse industry with veterinary podiatry consultation and therapeutic farriery application for horses with foot related lameness. We provide our service throughout Australia and internationally, both in person and through an online consultation portal (watch this space!). We have affiliated veterinary practices that we work with on a regular basis and also travel for fly-in fly-out cases both nationally and internationally
Depending on the case, facilities available and if your farrier/vet are available at the time of the service, Luke can provide the following services
Establish a therapeutic farriery plan with your farrier and assist with shoeing if required. We recommend pre and post shoeing radiographs to help monitor the change in foot conformation immediately after shoeing. We understand that everyone is busy and sometimes it is hard for your farrier to attend, however we strongly encourage this if possible
Report to be taken home and discussed with veterinarian and farrier. Follow up phone calls and any questions will be answered either via phone or email
Luke has had 10+ years of shoeing horses of different breeds and disciplines with a variety of hoof conditions. Typically Luke encourages the horse to come back for a re-evaluation at 4-6 weeks post shoeing to monitor how the horse has responded to the change in shoeing. From there, further recommendations can be made. The majority of foot problems improve significantly after 3-5 shoeings and typically the horses will go back into a more regular shoeing style. More complicated cases such as severe laminitis can take 6-12 months of specialised shoeing before the horse can be transitioned into more traditional shoes.
