Real craftsmanship I've always liked farriery, but as someone wrote, my back can't take it.... Still so nice to see when you give the horse a real treatment
I was a farrier for over 60 years . I’m 82,over weigh , with no back problems, or pain. I was told early on to watch a farrier about my size and build, too learn how not to ruin my back . I did and it worked for me . Oh, 6’3” tall
So you know what I was thinking through this whole video? How your back must get sore. I have lower back problems and just watching the angle that you have to bend at to look after that horses hooves makes me hope that you are taking good care of your back. I love watching your videos ☺️
I hurt my lower back when I was 12 years old. I’ve been hurting ever since. That was in the 60’s had to compensate strong upper back. I’ve been in constant pain since 1985. You make do. 5’tall and a long back. Bad combo 😂 = stubby legs. Iz a girl. 4 brothers and I was doing the heavy work with my dad. I’ll shut up now.

I know that is one healthy and very happy horse. One thing I noticed is that the horse was calm and very trusting of you. That is the sign of an excellent farrier.
It seems like the animals when they are having their hoofs trimmed, are so patient. I wonder if you sometimes get a horse that does not like being shod.
@@blindandwatching- Right. Owner as obviously trained horse to tolerate being handled and farrier does so with skill. I am understand that this is rudimentary training every owner should do - yet we are such poor horsemen that I struggle to even clean a single front foot and would expect to get kicked if I tried to pick up a rear foot. Our farrier charges a touch extra, but manages to keep horse calm and docile - though it takes (and costs) a bit extra. After multiple rounds, feet are in good enough shape he no longer needs shoes.
I’ve watched a few videos and noticed that you didn’t make a groove under the nail ends before you clenched them over and so they were proud of the hoof. Was that for any particular reason?
What are you feeling for when trimming the hood? Is the outer part crumbly and you feel for firmness? Do you have to worry about trimming to much? Like a dog mail, just right and too much are a hair away. 😢.
Haii i have a question.. When i'm old enough i want to be a farrier too but how can you see how much you need to take off of the hoofhorn. I'm still a little confused about it haha
What does this horse do when ridden or driven? I would think these shoes would be awfully slippery on most any surface with the smooth toe and just a recess for the nail heads, no swedge.
Sorry, aber immer noch zu lange Zehe und die Streben gehören zum Strahl hin weg! Dazu hätte ich das Eisen mit einer Kappe gewählt um den Druck vom Zwanghuf zu nehmen. Dazu hätte ich die Schenkel hinten vom Eisen breiter gelassen um besser zu unterstützen....
Why did you put clips on this horse? His foot looked extremely healthy and he had his old shoe. It's been on there for a long time so he doesn't throw them.
Since the OP hasn’t responded, I will weigh in…. Maybe the old shoe didn’t fit his trim…. Maybe the old shoe was worn too much to reset… Maybe he wanted clips to take unwanted stress off of the nails….the horse could be going into some rough environments which required clips…owner requested them….maybe the horse is being sold and going else were… I can keep on going…
Hooves constantly grow. They’re made out of keratin, the same thing our nails and hair are made of. Wild horses travel over 20 miles a day over various terrain, naturally wearing them down and keeping them at an appropriate length. Domesticated horses don’t get to roam such a large area, hence why they need a trim every 6-8 weeks to keep them at an appropriate length.
They did remove a lot. About 2-3 times as much as a normal trim. Trust me - I’m an expert. I’ve been laying in bed watching asmr hoof trimming videos for the last 6 months. What I don’t know about hoof trimming isn’t worth knowing.
This craft needs to be passed on next generations. We need people like you to take care of horses!
that is the way to trim hoofs and shoe a horse good job young man
Very well done. Much improved. Thank you for sharing. 🐴

All that growth but the horses foot looked extremely healthy, especially its frog. and look at how clean the sole looks... i'm mesmerized.
Dá trabalho sim. Mas o alívio desses nobres animais 😂é gratificante. Parabéns ferreiros, vocês são heróicos!
What a beautiful job👏🏼👏🏼
It seems like the animals when they are having their hoofs trimmed, are so patient. I wonder if you sometimes get a horse that does not like being shod.
Yes, it definitely happens. It's not as fun to film because the horse moves around too much
Horse is amazingly calm throughout process. Great job by owners/trainers and by farrier managing the process.
Just another day at the office for the horse.
Get your nails trimmed and polished. Then a new quad of horse Nikes.

just wow..the skills required to do this
Knowing nothing about horses, the thumbnail pic actually helped me understand how hooves grow, and what you guys mean by “heel”.
It's like a tube. Lol
@@Munichismybaby Yes. This is what I mean: what is the direction of growth, and how the frog grows in a different manner.
Very talented!!👍👍
beautiful work!!!
Has anyone noticed that the chaps look like they have hooves at the bottom.
The end product was a pretty hoof! =)
I’ve watched a few videos and noticed that you didn’t make a groove under the nail ends before you clenched them over and so they were proud of the hoof. Was that for any particular reason?
Respect the art, I was always scared to trim my dogs nails afraid I would hurt him !
Haha it definitely takes experience
Very nice job 👍👍👍
Красиво, чисто, аккуратно. Мне очень понравилось 👍
How do you know how much sole to remove?
Nice work!
Thanks!
Do the horses get a spring in their step I mean, can you tell that they’re happier😊
Why don’t people keep the horse hooves clean? That is part of caring for your animals.
How long do you have to work with the hot shoe? Can you "reheat" it
What are you feeling for when trimming the hood? Is the outer part crumbly and you feel for firmness? Do you have to worry about trimming to much? Like a dog mail, just right and too much are a hair away. 😢.
Actually yes to all of that. Except I have never trimmed a dogs nails.
nicely done.
Can anyone tell me why the hot shoe is placed on the hoof first?
Nice job closing over the back of the frog too help hold gravel and debris, hoof can’t clean naturally as well ??
Such an amazing job
Do you ever come to the UK ??!!😉
What did you rub on the hoof at the very end?
It's my secret recipe... 😜 it's just an oil based hoof protector
This is so cool!!!
Where are you from Sir tell me please ❤❤❤❤
belt sander on the door of your car very cool
Is that bruising on the front??
Haii i have a question..
When i'm old enough i want to be a farrier too but how can you see how much you need to take off of the hoofhorn. I'm still a little confused about it haha
In order to be a farrier you have to go to farrier school. They’ll teach you about it there:)
What does this horse do when ridden or driven? I would think these shoes would be awfully slippery on most any surface with the smooth toe and just a recess for the nail heads, no swedge.
They are not really slippery unless you are trying to ride only on concrete or asphalt. If that were the case you would use different shoes.
What is the purpose of the frog?? Is it like a cuticle?
Heart and gravity move blood down the leg, frog helps push ot back up. More to it but that’s the short version.
In terms of what it feels like to us yeah its like a cuticle
Good job
very good
Well done.
Отлично сделал!
They not even picking out the dirt daily
Walking horse farriers don’t know , that not all horses have these long hooves !!!
Does that hot not hurt them? 🤔
Beautifol werc
Thank you
I wonder what was the reason you didn't trim the frog? 😊
The horse didn't really have much of a frog so I wanted to leave as much as I could
How do you not gouge yourselt??
Horse now has to change the height description on her/his passport 😊
Already short
Who did you learn from?
Sorry, aber immer noch zu lange Zehe und die Streben gehören zum Strahl hin weg! Dazu hätte ich das Eisen mit einer Kappe gewählt um den Druck vom Zwanghuf zu nehmen. Dazu hätte ich die Schenkel hinten vom Eisen breiter gelassen um besser zu unterstützen....

@@SouthFLFarrierShorts I was thinking the frog
Anyone else hungry for parmesan?
😂😂😂 love that hoof parmesan
You need to fit the toe also!
Nail salon for horses.
Previous farrier must have been paid for nothing.
Poor boy. All bruised up
Please explain why you are doing what you are doing.
Cleaning debis. Removing horse shoe. Analyze foot. Trim excess....
Everyone cuts their nails once a month. Horses are no different.
To keep the horse's feet healthy and comfortable.
Are you dumb ?
I don’t understand. If it was a wild horse h ok a woukd it upkeep the way humans are caring for horses that are not wild
Wild horses live shorter lives, due to their feet not being groomed
@@Christyseriouslyfit that’s not why they live shorter lives, not even close💀

you didn’t removed that much , but I guess you had to exaggerate so people would want to watch your video
