Elam Fontenot (Kinder, La.)

We couldn’t be more thankful for Elam and his wisdom! My reining mare has some serious front foot issues and Elam always takes the time to ensure she is shod properly, no matter how much time it takes. He keeps her sound and ready to show!!

Elam is one of the most talented and thorough farriers that I’ve seen. He always puts the horse first and if ever there is an issue , he will work with you until a solution is found. He takes pride in his work and loves what he does. When he says he will be there , you can count on him to be there, be on time and most times even early. As far as a person goes, you could not ask for a more trustworthy, straight shooting kind of guy. I trusted this guy since day one of meeting him. There is people in your life that you just know you can trust , talk to and would always help you. Elam is one of them. Elam is always continuing his knowledge and is always open to learn more and listen to others. That’s a very important thing because so many folks will not hear what you have to say. Elam is great about listening and working with his clients. He started off as our farrier , but we are happy to call him our friend. I don’t know where we would be with our horses without him. He makes it all POSSIBLE. Thank you Elam!
