DARREN LACEY CJF
PROFESSIONAL FARRIER SERVICES
Hampshire, UK
ABOUT
Qualifying as a Certified Journeyman Farrier in 2013, I have over 8 years of experience, with all types of horses and ponies in all disciplines and levels of work. I trained under internationally renowned and award winning farrier Dusty Franklin AWCF at the Five Star Horseshoeing School in Oklahoma, benefitting from his vast array of knowledge and skills, which still informs my practice to this day.
​
In 2015 I moved back to Hampshire, UK, and have enjoyed continuing my business with a range of clients across the county. I am always happy to discuss taking on new customers, so do give me a call!
The horse's welfare is at the forefront of everything I do, and I take immense pride and care in balancing a foot in better condition than I found it. As the saying goes, no foot, no horse. It's very important to me that time is taken to work with an owner, and their vet if necessary, to find the best possible shoeing solution for the horse. Horses don't have a say in what happens to their feet and put their trust in us to do what's right for them, so I make it my goal to give them exactly what they need.

TESTIMONIALS
TESTIMONIALS
"Darren is a total professional. Always on time and an excellent communicator. Goes above and beyond to respond to emergencies. Takes as much care over trimming a retired Shetland as treating a hysterical warmblood with abscesses in three feet at the same time. Kind, patient and pragmatic. Can't recommend him highly enough."
