FAQ
*Due to a steadily increasing customer base, appointments are required.
* Glen does not shoe horses. Due to costs, Glen requires a minimum of 3 horses to travel 100 km or more or travelling will apply. Horses do not have to be on the same property but within reasonable distance of each other.
* Regularly scheduled horses take priority over intermittent horses.
* Julia does not practice during the working week unless the horse is brought to our facility at Temora.
* We recommend monthly hoof trims as this, in all our education, is what is recommended to us. Barefoot is reknowned for trims every 4 weeks as to trim at longer intervals required the trimmer to change the hoof capsule every time he trims. This then places additional strain on the horse's body as it adjusts with every trim. David Farmilo, also, recommends shoes are reset every 4 weeks. In order to apply this philosophy to our client horses and give them the best possible care, Glen schedules to be in the same area to trim on a monthly rotation.
* Glen and Julia reserve the right to refuse to trim/treat dangerous horses.
"In a dark place we find ourselves… and a little more knowledge might light our way." Yoda
Are we huge Yoda fans? Not really, but it sums up the beginnings and the continuing philosophy of Nashama Equine. Why do we call ourselves Nashama Equine? It was Nashama (Nashama Ben Tahl) that drove us to become equine clinicians.
In 2005 he was sent away for training. 5 weeks later he arrived home and had a nervous breakdown. We found ourselves in the darkest of places, alone and not knowing what to do to help our beloved colt. He was in mental and physical agony and so very ill.
Sitting in the yard with him, in tears, was not going to help him. Only more knowledge could light our way.
Nashama means, in Arabic, humans which show drive and initiative and horses which respond quickly to commands. Nashama, well named, responded with immense heart and detirmination to our stumbling efforts under the guidance of his vets and Australia's best body work clinician. As we rose to meet the challenge of his needs, we needed to show drive and initiative and now find ourselves asked to respond to the needs of other horses.
