Whether your horse needs a routine trim or specialized care for founder and laminitis, Ralph’s reputation for excellence makes all the difference.
A Legacy Forged in Hoof Care
Ralph’s journey as a farrier began decades ago in Hemphill, TX. Driven by a passion for horses and a deep commitment to their well-being, he has worked with hundreds of horses, from backyard companions to top-performing athletes. Ralph’s hands-on approach, understanding of hoof mechanics, and dedication to ongoing learning set him apart from other farriers in the region.
“Every horse is unique. My goal is to keep each one moving comfortably, whether they’re a backyard companion or a top-performing athlete.” — Ralph Hampton
