Our Services

Special Emphasis on Body Lameness

With years of experience in sports medicine, Dr. Ashman of Hoofbeats Equine Service came to the realization that leg lameness is often secondary to a problem higher up. After researching body lameness with very little luck, Dr. Ashman finally discovered Dr. Audrey and Kate. Since finding them, Dr. Ashman has dedicated her professional life to studying under her colleagues and learning what they have discovered in relation to body lameness. As a result, Dr. Ashman, using a whole horse approach, has successfully treated sleep deprivation, head shakers, chronic suspensory horses, chronic back pain, shoulder dysfunction with wither pain, and many behavioral horses.

Hoofbeats Equine Service Success Stories

Dr. Ashman and Hoofbeat’s goes above and beyond. She has also been diligent about continuing education and staying on top of treatments and research especially regarding lameness. I have a mare that was on pasture rest for a year because no one could figure out what was going on. After seeing Dr. Ashman we are back in business- she found and treated the issue that specialists at vet schools couldn’t figure out!

Joni B.

Dr. Brandy & Melissa are a great partner of vets. I like that this practice offers wellness plans for their customers to keep quality routine veterinary care affordable for their clients. Highly recommend since you can tell they take pride in their work!

Hunter T.

Hoofbeats has been quick and responsive as a mobile vet service. Very happy that they continue to serve rural communities when we have lost our equine vets.
