🐴 PLEASE WELCOME RACHEL 2.0 TO THE TEAM! 🐴

We are very excited to officially welcome Rachel 2.0 to the Christina Adamo Farrier Services team! ❤️

Some of you may already recognize her. Rachel has been riding Western and showing horses since she was a little girl, and for the past couple of years she has been doing the occasional ride-along with us. So there’s a good chance you’ve already seen her around!

But now it’s official — Rachel is officially part of the team! 🎉

You will be seeing a lot more of her, and she will be working on horses alongside Christina as she continues to learn and develop her skills.

Christina will be watching her very closely while she works. Christina will be there to teach, guide, correct, and make sure everything is being done properly and safely. Your horses are still under Christina’s supervision and care.

We want want to make something very clear:

Rachel is here to learn, and she is to be treated with respect.

Everyone starts somewhere. Learning this trade takes time, experience, patience, and hands-on work. There is absolutely no room for anyone to be disrespectful, rude, or make her uncomfortable while she is doing her job.

If you have a question or legitimate concern, you speak with Christina. Do not take it upon yourself to criticize or undermine a member of our team.

We are building a team, and we expect our clients to respect the people who work hard alongside us to keep this business moving.

So when you see Rachel around, say hello, introduce yourself, and give her a warm welcome! 🧡

We are very happy to have you officially on the team, Rachel! 🐴💪🏼

Welcome to the team! Now let’s get to work! 🔨🐎

A LITTLE REMINDER FROM US 🐴🧡

Please book your appointments in advance.

As crazy as it sounds, yes — Christina works every single day. No joke. Her days can start at 7:00 AM and sometimes don’t end until 10:00 PM, all in an effort to accommodate everyone and keep as many horses on schedule as possible.

But here’s the reality:

There is no such thing as “squeezing you in” anymore.

The schedule is full. Christina is already working incredibly long days, and there simply aren’t extra hours to keep adding appointments into an already packed schedule.

And with that being said, things are going to be changing.

We have reached the point where we need to make some changes to the way the business operates.

We will be doing less.

Christina is one person. She cannot continue trying to do 65 horses a day, drive all over the place, manage the business, and somehow still have a life outside of work.

Our client list is currently at maximum capacity. We are not looking to continue taking on more and more clients just to stretch Christina thinner.

The plan moving forward is to have someone working alongside Christina and also have someone helping with the driving/travel portion of the business.

This will allow us to make the schedule more realistic and, most importantly, sustainable.

And yes — our hours will be changing.

We will no longer be starting as early or working as late as we currently do.

And weekends?

Weekends will actually be weekends. BUT There will be a few Saturdays that Christina will work. So to the ones who have standing Saturday appointments you are good!
Christina deserves time off just like everyone else.

We know changes like this may take some getting used to, but they are necessary. Christina has worked incredibly hard to build this business and take care of everyone, but she cannot continue running herself into the ground trying to accommodate every single request.

So please help us make this work:

BOOK YOUR APPOINTMENTS AHEAD OF TIME.
STAY ON YOUR ROTATION.
PLAN AHEAD.

We will always do our best to take care of our clients and their horses, but moving forward, we are going to be doing things in a way that is healthier, more organized, and sustainable for everyone.

Thank you to all of our amazing clients who understand, respect the schedule, and continue to support Christina. 🧡🐴

🧡Understanding The Bigger Picture Behind Your Horse’s Feet! 🧡

One of the biggest things I want our clients to understand is that your horse’s feet do not exist in a bubble.

As a farrier, I can trim and balance the hoof to the best of my ability, but the health, strength, growth and overall condition of that hoof are influenced by so much more than what happens during a farrier appointment.

The environment your horse lives in matters.

Is your horse standing in mud?
Is it extremely dry?
Are they standing in wet bedding?
Are they living outside 24/7?
Are they spending hours standing in a stall?
Are they walking on soft ground, hard ground, gravel or a combination of surfaces?

All of these things can affect the hoof.

What your horse eats matters.

The type and quality of hay, pasture, grain, concentrates and treats your horse receives can all play a role in their overall nutrition and, ultimately, hoof growth and quality.

Supplements matter.

If you are feeding a hoof supplement, vitamins, minerals or other nutritional products, I need to know about them. Not because I want to tell you what to feed your horse, but because it gives me a better understanding of what may be contributing to changes we see in the hoof.

Medications matter too.

Medications and other products going into your horse’s system can have an impact on their overall body and sometimes their feet. If your horse starts a new medication, treatment or dietary program, please let us know.

And perhaps most importantly, changes matter.

If you suddenly change your horse’s feed, move them to a new property, change their turnout routine, introduce a new supplement, start or stop medication, or dramatically change their workload, those things can potentially show up in the feet.

Remember, the hoof wall you see today was not created yesterday. It is a record of what has been happening inside and around that horse over time.

That is why communication between the owner, farrier, veterinarian and other professionals involved in your horse’s care is so important.

When I ask questions about your horse’s feed, supplements, medications, living conditions, turnout, workload or recent changes, I am not being nosy. I am trying to understand the whole horse so I can make the best decisions possible for their feet.

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to hoof care.

Two horses can receive the exact same trim and live completely different lives — and their feet can respond completely differently.

So please remember:

Healthy feet start with understanding the whole horse.

The farrier is one piece of the puzzle. Nutrition, environment, management, exercise, genetics, veterinary care and the horse’s individual needs all come together to influence hoof health.

The more information you give us, the better equipped we are to recognize changes, understand what we are seeing and provide the best hoof care possible.

Your horse’s feet are telling us a story. Our job is to listen. 🐴🧡

Well folks… THE BOSS IS BACK! 👑🐴

Vacation is officially over, and we’re back at it!

We’re working hard this week to get everything back in order, catch up on messages, appointments, scheduling, and all the behind-the-scenes chaos that comes with being away.

So please hang with us this week while we get everything organized and back on track. We promise we’re working through it all and will have everything running smoothly again in no time!

Thank you for your patience, understanding, and continued support while the boss took some much-needed time to recharge. 🧡

Now… back to work! 💪🏼🐴

The boss is back, folks — and she’s ready to roll!

08/01/2026

Well, the boss is officially on vacation! ☀️😎

While Christina takes a well-deserved week to relax, recharge, and enjoy some time off, the rest of the team is still here to keep things running smoothly.

If you need to book an appointment or have an emergency, don’t hesitate to reach out—we’re still here and happy to help.

We hope the boss has an amazing, restful week away. She works incredibly hard all year long, and this time to recharge is more than deserved. Enjoy every minute—you’ve earned it! ❤️

Behind every successful day is an incredible group of women who show up, work hard, and give it their all.

To our girl gang—thank you. ❤️

Attention Clients,

Thank you for your patience as we transition to a new scheduling and management app.

As with any new system, there may be a few bumps along the way while we learn the program and get everything organized. We appreciate your understanding as we work through this process and make sure everything is running as smoothly and efficiently as possible.

If you notice any delays in responses, appointment confirmations, invoices, or reminders, please bear with us. We are doing our best to ensure every client receives the same great service while we adapt to this new system.

We truly appreciate your patience, kindness, and support during this transition. Thank you for sticking with Christina Adamo Farrier Services—we’re excited for the improvements this new app will bring!

Good Rainy morning!

A friendly reminder when sending an e-transfer: please include your invoice number in the message.

Many of our clients have payments sent by a spouse, family member, or friend. When the sender’s name doesn’t match the client’s name and there is no invoice number, we have no way of knowing which account the payment belongs to.

This creates unnecessary delays and extra work trying to track down who has paid what.

Please take the extra 10 seconds to include your invoice number with every e-transfer. It helps us keep our records accurate and ensures your payment is applied to the correct invoice.

Thank you for your cooperation.

We all know Christina has a soft spot for donkeys… so let us introduce you to her absolute favourite! 🫏💜

Donkeys have always been a huge part of Christina’s life. They aren’t just another animal she works on—they hold a special place in her heart.

One thing she’ll always stand behind is educating people that donkeys are not horses. They have different nutritional needs, different hoof care requirements, and they need accommodations that are designed specifically for them. Treating a donkey like a horse can lead to serious health issues, and Christina is passionate about helping owners understand those differences.

Every donkey deserves care that’s tailored to them, and Christina is committed to advocating for these incredible animals every chance she gets.

Because when it comes to donkeys, they’re not “just little horses”—they’re wonderfully unique, and they deserve to be cared for that way. 💜🫏

🚨📢 NOTICE – EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2027📢🚨

As of January 1, 2027, all service prices at Christina Adamo Farrier Services will be increasing.

The cost of running a business continues to rise. Fuel, insurance, equipment, supplies, maintenance, and everyday operating expenses have all increased, and it’s time our pricing reflects those realities.

We will also be implementing travel fees for appointments outside of our regular service areas. Spending hours on the road without charging appropriately for travel is no longer sustainable.

We understand these changes may not work for everyone, and we completely respect that. If you choose to find a farrier closer to home or one whose pricing better suits your budget, we genuinely wish you and your horses all the best. Christina has always valued every client and every horse she has had the privilege of working with.

These changes are necessary to ensure we can continue providing dependable, professional hoof care while operating a sustainable business for years to come.

If you have any questions or concerns about these changes, or if you’d simply like to discuss how they may affect your appointments, please reach out to Christina directly. She is always happy to have a respectful conversation and would much rather hear from you personally than through rumours or second-hand conversations.

Thank you to everyone who has supported Christina Adamo Farrier Services. Your trust, loyalty, and continued support mean more than you know, and we look forward to caring for your horses in 2027 and beyond.
