my name is Everett Hutchinson little summary on how I have become a Barefoot Trimmer.
I grew up with a rodeo family in British Columbia. Riding bulls was my passion for many years that kind of passion that you could spend 16 hours in a truck for a few seconds of work and hopefully it was at least eight seconds wink, only to turn the pick up truck around and continue more endless miles and sunsets while doing this lifestyle never seemed like a job and the hours in the truck never questioned because it was what you were meant to do.
Fast-forward to three spirited children and one that loves jumping horses and now Dad‘s underneath them making sure they are balanced and sound so Evvy can jump the moon.
I started my practice out at Olds College through their trimming class that they offered. It got me fired up to learn more about this trimming journey, so I enrolled into The Okanogan school of natural hoof care in Kelowna British Columbia. I was grateful to be able to get a certificate of completion of this course.
Coming back to Alberta and trimming our own horses and friend’s horses, I was I was online looking for some more clinics to keep up the motivation in learning this hoof care passion that seemed to have creeped into my life lol. I came across Success with Horses website and contacted Birgitta and Connie and registered for a three-day clinic. I could tell and feel right away I was in the program I needed to be in. Their values and beliefs aligned perfectly with my own and this was the best place for me to get my education and mentorship support while to continue being successful and moving forward in my hoof care career.
I have advanced my knowledge and skill set immensely, so instead of looking out the windshield for hours to get on Toro’s, I now look through that windshield with the same amount of passion to get underneath your ponies, to ensure that they are barefoot and balanced from the ground up.
Thanks for taking the time to read this hope to see you down the road, I will be taking care of the Medicine Hat and surrounding areas.
Respectfully,
