Dedicated to helping horse and rider combinations of all levels, Progressive Equine Services offers a range of services and utilises the latest technologies available in the industry worldwide. With a strong focus on accuracy, reliability, and usability of data, Progressive Equine Services plays a vital role in determining the trimming and shoeing needs of your horse through pre and post shoeing evaluations.
While sports science is a well-established part of human sport, the equine industry has been slow to adopt similar practises. Many traditional methods in the horse world rely heavily on visual assessment, which lacks the necessary level of accuracy, reliability, and consistency required for the modern-day sport horse. As the demands on performance horses continue to increase, riders are seeking alternate methods and techniques to enhance performance, maintain soundness, and stay ahead of the competition. Progressive Equine Services recognises this need and is at the forefront of utilising technology and sports science to appraise equine locomotion, detect lameness, evaluate equine movement, and quantify the effect of hoof care on performance.
At Progressive Equine Services, the team understands that a horse's feet are its foundation and that good hoof care is paramount to its overall welfare. The balance and alignment of a horse's feet can have a significant impact on every aspect of the horse's well-being, including its health, comfort, behaviour, soundness, and performance. To meet the needs of the modern performance horse, Progressive Equine Services has taken a different approach, incorporating modern technologies, assessments, and evaluations into their business model.
With a focus on collecting valuable data, utilising modern materials, and understanding the individual needs of each horse, Progressive Equine Services sets itself apart from other hoof care providers. Their commitment to quality over quantity and the use of technologies and assessments ensure they achieve the best outcomes for their clients. Whether it's everyday work, corrective work, or dealing with lameness issues, Progressive Equine Services credits their modern approach to farriery for much of their success.
While every horse is evaluated individually, Progressive Equine Services places a strong emphasis on creating comfort for the horses they work on. They achieve this by maintaining structural integrity in the hoof capsule, ensuring good bony column alignment, correcting distortions, and providing hoof proportions that last the entire shoe cycle. Additionally, they possess the ability to make and modify shoes to suit the specific needs of each horse, whether it be for pathology and lameness, rehabilitation, hoof correction, or optimal performance.
