Basso Ed Farrier Service

It’s been 9 months and Ed is consistently reliable, prompt and easy to work with. I recommend him without any hesitation. Our horse is a tender foot and Ed keeps her hooves healthy. They look great and she feels great under his care. Again, I can not stress enough how great Ed is to work with, he makes taking care of our horse that much easier.

Ed is a great farrier. I’ve been a loyal customer of his for a few years now. First off, when I moved my horse to the Bay Area, I didn’t know any horse people and when I had to find a farrier when she was due, Ed called me back on the SAME DAY (this is rare…) and actually went out to meet me and get my mare’s feet done on that same day (this is even more rare). I must have called 8 different farriers that day because she had an issue I needed handled urgently, and Ed was the only one who seemed to realize that I needed someone fast.
Otherwise, he now regularly comes out and does a great job. He’s always been really helpful and friendly and is honest with what is best for my horse. I.e., when the weather gets nicer he suggests she can go barefoot which loses him some $$$ since 4 shoes is much more expensive than a trim, but he knows it’s good for the horse. Pretty nice. And any time I call him to schedule he either gets back to me right away or he simply shows up and takes care of my horse and bills me. Great guy, would definitely recommend him!
