Has anyone got the name of a good RELIABLE farrier that would travel to the Stourbridge area? (I hear you all laugh at the word in capitals). I am currently fuming having just had a ACL reconstruction on my knee and being unable to drive I have hobbled to the village, caught a bus, changed to another bus in the town that took me near the yard and hobbled all the way there for 9am for the farrier and has he turned up? Has he boat. My friends mum has got a lift as she is on crutches and we have even roped in another girl to come and help us as no good between us. Has of course just turned his phone off. I don't mind them changing day/ being late etc if they just tell you. We had to change before because the other one started being the same. The new one was great to start with but this is the second time this has happened and we just can't do it especially when one of us normally has to book the day off work to be there.

Oh and I know someone will say well maybe they're trying to tell you something but it definately isn't us. We have 3 very well mannered good to shoe horses/ponies - there is an inside area to shoe in out of the rain and cold - they get tea/coffee and usually something to eat and are always paid!!

Sorry slight rant but I'm in pain and short tempered.

Many Thanks!! x
 
Will PM you a number - he's based just north of Wolverhampton, may be outside his area, but always worth a call - and sooooooo reliable, and a blimmin' good farrier and nice guy. Couldn't ask for more. :)
 
Have sent you the number of my farrier too. He's just out od Wolves also so don't know if it's the same one as Crazydancer. He's lovely, always on time (usually early) and brilliant with horses. I wouldn't use anyone else now.
 
Hi All - well gave our farrier one more chance as he said he would turn up yesterday (also as it was very short notice to find someone new) and you've guessed it - he didn't turn up. Had a message saying he was having van trouble this time (!) and that he was embarrased so maybe we had better find someone else. Anyway we are desperately trying to find someone else - thanks to all who replied - have tried Marc Jerram and Steve Webb neither of which are taking on at the moment. Any further ideas? Thanks.
 
my old farrier - Sandpitt Forge - Kelvin Lymer - not cheap but always reliable - got several lads working for him. Based north of Worcester
