Susanella Noble, CNBBT
Hoof Care Practitioner
Apprenticeship Program
My relationship with my apprentices is a two-way street because we learn together and from each other. We are practicing holistic horse care from the ground up studying anatomy, diet, environment and exercise. My students gain the knowledge and techniques to earn their Natural Balance Barefoot Trimmer Certification.
Mitchell Ruggles
Mitch is a graduate of Ka`u High with deep roots in the Big Island. He grew up with his family's five horses - actually learning to shoe them. After riding with me for a couple of weeks, Mitch saw the consequences of metal shoes and has taken all his horses barefoot. I appreciate his strength of character and body! He is an avid surfer and plays guitar in a rock band around the island.
Kate Deffebach
Kate has a bouquet of beautiful paints! Two of her horses had cracks in their hooves to the coronary band and she called me to work on them. I pulled their shoes and started trimming them with such good results that Kate knew this was the right path. She took over the care of her own four horses within a couple of months and has been doing an outstanding job. She and her husband have a beautiful farm where they raise cattle, chickens and their own produce using IMO gardening. Kate breeds Blue Heelers!

Sovana is the junior apprentice but only in age. She and I have been working on one of her severly laminitic horses with great success. She has five sisters, four horses and two minis. She and her sister, Tapia, recently rode in a parade on the only horses who were shoeless and bitless.
