Hi, i'm new to stockyard, and i've just moved 55km south of Meekatharra to an Aboriginal Education Community where there are 6 horses which i've kind of taken the role of caring for (as well as planning on moving my 2 from NSW over) the community is well set up for feed, paddocks, and tack, but the horses need a little TLC, some underweight, some overweight and all needing farrier attention.
i'm Just wondering what are the vet and farrier options around here??
thanks in advance!

If you are seriously stuck you might see if any of the guys from Newman travel. We are bit further north than you but we have a fairly biggish horse scene and a few farriers around.

Thanks Feueriosa... would you be able to share some newman farriers names please???
I'm in desperate need for a farrier for a few horses here now, one 'farrier' had a go and with no training had no idea basically... and i think most people who call themselves 'farriers' around here are the same and all say the same thing 'i've seen it done enough times to know what to do!' arrgghhh.
If there are any good ones around here i can't seem to find them!
