Thank you for taking your time to work with him during the video! So many people edit those moments out and it sets learners up for failure in my opinion, because then you are backtracking to troubleshoot.
We will love you if you help them learn. I’m a farrier. I have a lot of patience and I’m happy to be apart of the process… but if someone else doesn’t want to handle their horse’s feet, I don’t really want to either. We are a team. Let’s work on it together.
I have never interacted with horses, but I consider trying it soon. I think it could fit me as a new hobby. Reading books and watching some YT's videos, so I'm better prepared before I step into the horse world
Great advice and techniques to know. I have a belding that snathces his front hooves from me way too often. Watching your training , I now know that he needs more training. Thank you. It is appalling to me how many horse owners go from trim to trim and never pick up the hooves to clean them between trims. Education like yours is key.
Thanks for sharing your experience and expertise with everyone, there really needs to be more of these done.. and the way that you kindly set his hoof down when you’re ready, well that’s just so much more calming for them too it’s the way I’ve always done it. They remember all , and the little rhythm with you’re hammer is such a cool idea and this is also something that should be practiced every single time , we give it back to them. but back to them remembering they know you as soon as you get out of your truck, so if it was a bad thing well then you just made it another tense day, but if you have the chance to always make it a better time each time thing’s will be easier for all. So again thanks for helping horse owners learn the importance of this working with your own horses hooves is a responsibility that every single horse owner needs to Do and if you don’t know how ask someone who you know to show you because. If you don’t and the farrier gets there man they have a lot of other animals besides yours , so sometimes we get in a hurry and do things faster than we would normally do and it’s a wreck waiting to happen. So at that point we are basically done something wrong is about to happen or already did and it’s finished in the time the horse rares up and comes back down like in my case.. Not the horses falt mine… So I thank you for your help with this problem, this is your first video I have seen so now I have subscribed to your channel and I have to see what other great info you are sharing. Sorry for the long wind but it is really important. Thanks again….🙏
Thanks so much for the kind words! They mean a lot. 🙏 Feel free to check out our website in our bio for more information. We’ve got a newsletter you may want to sign up for!
Thanks for your video. My horse is still young 4 years.. and I am trying to practice this. But he pulls back his leg and gives a kick. He tries to pull the leg out of my hand. Any advice for this. And he always gives a kick when I let the hoof go.
Thank you!!! I just rescued a horse who had foundering/laminitis issues. And shes been awful for trims.... Not sure if she still has pain as she heals. But boy-howdy is my ferrier not a fan of her. Im going to try these things, i appreciate all the thought you put in your videos, i have subscribed for more! 😊
🤣🤣 Wow Man , great advice. I'm learning and today 😂I was wrestling with the front leg of a horse and and didn't let go 😮 picked me up 😅 Almost got stepped on 😂 . Again Great Advice 👍
I had a very bad farrier quick my horse, she is terrified of farriers now. I fired him that day. When a horse is afraid it is so much different than it misbehaving. Trying to get her over her fear, is hard! She can no longer wear shoes, all because of that one horrible farrier. The farrier I have now is patient and kind. He wants to sedate her though and I do not want that.
OMG I have had a few farriers but the problems not with the horse it’s with the farrier honestly!! If my horse even moves an inch the farrier is jerking on his lease line hard or punches in guts not roughly but enough to upset my horse if he wasn’t the best farrier he wouldn’t be my farrier so we as horses owners knows what’s what!!🙀🙀🙀🥲🇦🇺🇦🇺
"torque his joint". AHA 😯🤔. Hoof stand - black thingy on top ?? What ?? Where get one ?? Handy for us to put hoof dressing on, yes ?? WE not bend over soo far. 😊

Omg your the best thank you
Thanks Jonathan! I know all this but I’ve gotten lazy. I needed the reminder of letting the horse have some responsibility too
I have 3 a rescue with a sticky stifle, I work with them everyday. Patience is what they need. They are worth every moment ❤️
Great video. My farrier will love you.
Glad to hear it!

You got this!
Brilliant!
Thanks so much for watching!
Lovely horse, just nice and seems having pleasure to lift his feet 😅
Excellent suggestions. It's not the farriers job to train the horse to stand and pick the feet up.

What do I do with my 2 year old when he hops on 3 legs
My Farrier is very rough with my horses . My husband and me can do all this . They give our Farrier a hard time .

This helps but your horse may not trust the farrier!
