Farrier

The health of the hoof is crucial for the well-being and performance of your horse. As a veterinary clinic with a holistic approach, it is natural for us to integrate farriery into our treatment concept. Because: “No hoof, no horse” – this old saying remains just as valid today.

At our clinic, experienced farriers work hand in hand with our veterinary team. Once a week, Alex Würsch is on site to ensure the best possible hoof care for every horse – from leisure horses to high-performance athletes. Especially in orthopedic cases, close collaboration between veterinary diagnosis and professional shoeing is crucial for successful treatment.

Our goal is not only to treat existing problems but also to ensure long-term stability, health, and functionality of the musculoskeletal system.

•    Orthopedic shoeing for conditions such as laminitis, tendon and ligament injuries, arthritis such as spavin, and more.
•    Therapeutic special solutions based on veterinary diagnosis and X-ray control.
•    Corrective shoeing for malpositions, especially in young horses.
•    Individually tailored shoeing for leisure, sport, and rehabilitation horses.
•    Barefoot care to maintain healthy hooves.
•    Regular check-up appointments for prevention and early detection of changes.
•    Advice on husbandry and feeding aspects that may influence hoof health.
•    Modern Facilities – Attention to Detail

Our clinic has a modern farriery station, ensuring safe working conditions for both humans and horses. Supported by digital imaging (e.g., X-rays for shoeing adjustments), we can plan and execute each procedure with precision.
 

Whether dealing with acute lameness, chronic hoof problems, or regular maintenance – our team of veterinarians, farriers, and therapists is here to support you. Through interdisciplinary collaboration, we develop customized concepts for each horse, aiming for sustainable recovery and health maintenance.
