Cause no harm. Respect the healing powers of nature

"Where in this wide world can man find nobility without pride, friendship without envy, or beauty without vanity? Here, where grace is laced with muscle, and strength by gentleness confined. He serves without servility, he has fought without enmity. There is nothing so powerful, nothing less violent, there is nothing so quick, nothing more patient... we are his heirs, he is our inheritance." THE HORSE by Ronald Duncan

My name is Marian Figley, and I am a natural hoofcare advocate and trimmer. This is the home of The Naked Hoof, and is always under construction.

This site is dedicated to promoting the natural hoof and natural horse care to the best of our (sometimes limited) abilities. I have posted some links which may include information regarding other styles of trim because there is a huge wealth of information to be gleaned from many of these sites. My background includes studies with Cindy Sullivan (Tribe Equus), Jaime Jackson (AANHCP), Pete Ramey (Hoof Rehab), Todd Jaynes (Natural Hoof Care) and several other wonderful farriers and trimmers willing to take the time to educate and enlighten.

I try to centralize my service area in Georgia to the following Counties: Carroll, Douglas, Paulding, Cobb, North Fulton, Cherokee and Bartow, but it can extend farther than that depending on the situation. Currently I am taking on new clients, and I always keep some room open for emergencies and rehabs. If you are in a situation with your horse and don't know what else to do, please give me a call or shoot me an e-mail. If I can't help, I might know someone who can.

I trim on Sundays, Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. At this point, I do not accept checks. Due to my relatively full schedule, if you need to reschedule there is no guarantee I will be able to get to your horse(s) any time before the next scheduled trim. I charge $40 for a regular trim with a well behaved horse. Minis/ponies can be less, depending on the amount of work involved. Drafts are $70, and I simply cannot work with Drafts if they have issues with standing for a trim anymore. My body just can't handle it. If you are not in my immediate service area, but you have more than 5 horses that will always be on the same schedule, I might be able to help, depending on how far away you are.
