Horse Farrier Schedule

Manage barefoot and shod horses on a rolling farrier schedule with configurable intervals and clear overdue warnings so no horse slips past 8 weeks.

Shod horses: typically 6 weeks. Barefoot: 6-8. Faster-growing hooves (spring/summer) shorten cycle.

Farrier rotation

Add horses to build the schedule.

A stretched cycle causes long-toe / low-heel imbalance, which drives navicular pain and hoof cracks. Book the next appointment before the farrier leaves.

Examples

  • Shod hunter, work horseEvery 6 weeks
  • Barefoot pasture palEvery 6-8 weeks
  • Fast growth in springShorten to 5 weeks
