Our Services

What we do:

At Jim McKnight Farrier Services, every horse receives professional, reliable and tailored hoof care to support soundness, comfort and performance. Based in Shropshire and working across the surrounding counties, Jim provides a complete range of farriery services for horses and ponies of all types — from happy hackers and family ponies to hunters, eventers and competition horses. His calm, patient approach ensures every horse is treated with care and attention, whether it’s a first-time trim or a complex remedial case.

Jim offers a full range of farriery services, including:

Routine trimming for unshod horses and ponies, maintaining balance, shape and comfort.
Hot and cold shoeing, using a wide variety of shoes — from simple concave to bar shoes — to suit every hoof type and workload.
Remedial shoeing, designed to support horses with specific conditions, injuries or conformational challenges, helping to restore balance and movement.
Extension fittings, impression materials and pads, used where additional support, cushioning or limb alignment is required.
Bespoke shoeing plans for individual horses, tailored to their discipline, lifestyle and environment.

Every horse is assessed on an individual basis, with shoeing and trimming carried out to suit its particular needs and purpose. Jim combines traditional craftsmanship with modern farriery techniques to deliver practical, long-lasting results.

As each case is unique, prices may vary and will be discussed during consultation to ensure the most suitable and cost-effective solution for your horse.
