- Today I will be shoeing a nervous horse called Chief.
Chief and I have been working together for a decade now and whilst he has improved he still doesn't look forward to me visiting.

I had to sit and think about why the world was so obsessed with these videos. Then it came to me. We are a technological based word now, and everything is manufactured. The art of a tradesmen who has mastered their craft is not something seen very often anymore. It looks and feels so different from the way most people live their lives.
Plus its somethings most people would never get to see otherwise. Really cool!

True
True, this kind of skill is rare now, I appreciate people who still choose the traditional way of living, kodus to this guy.
When I was a little boy in the early 70s my Grand father had six Clydesdales that used to get re shod every three months, I used to look forward to the the Farrier arriving with excitement he always arrived on an old converted army truck, I remember sitting watching the Farrier for hours fascinated with it all I loved the smell of the burning hooves the hot coals and the noises with the anvil and the sound of metal clanking, my Grandfather's dogs used to sit patiently with me watching too because they knew the Farrier would eventually throw them bits of hoof that had been cut away and the dogs chewed them they loved horse hoof it was like a drug to them after the dogs would go crazy and start running around in circles, it was a magic spectacle to watch and the horses loved it too as they got a handful of sugar cubes at the end of it sometimes Granddad gave them a bucket of Beer each which they really loved then they farted it off in the pasture resting. Happy times.
What a precious and lovely comment of yours, thanks a lot ... !!! 👋☺️👍🌲🇩🇪
@trulla212 Reminiscing good/lovely times. 😊
Thank you for drawing us this scene. Interesting how the dogs loved the hoof bits-protein! From Canada
I enjoyed reading your comment. I have fond memories of the horses and my grandfather as well. I've been around horses since before I could walk and I walked at 7 months. Riding at 5. Nothing is as pleasurable as being around them, in my opinion. They're calming and beautiful creatures. They do enjoy a peppermint lozenge, sugar cube, apple, carrot, beer or even a little tobacco on occasion. Thanks for sharing your memories.
I owned a Welsh Mountain Pony when I was young and he was quite a cheeky chappie. He hated Blacksmiths and happily run away with the Blacksmith after him. He also did not like horseboxes and I had to ride to all my local shows. His nose fitted into a pint glass and he would have a drink of lager outside in the pub car park at the end of a ride, much to the amusement of everyone. Lots of slurps and tongue licking going on. He loved his pint LOL.
My horse loves Farriers. He kisses their backs and tucks his head under their arms to cuddle them, then falls asleep while they're working on him.
Awww. He must be a sweetie!
A lot of horses are fine to pick up their feet for their owners but it’s quite different to a farrier doing it, can take a while to get them used to the grip and the length of time they need to keep their feet up. All credit to this guy he is sooo patient and kind with this horse, fantastic to see a farrier with such a great attitude
This farrier has excellent advice when dealing with difficult horses...never lose your temper....lots of scratches and short breaks, say hello first etc., just keep progressing with patience and don't make a big deal out of things.
Good channel.
Yep! Same thing with dogs n well any animal for that matter
@@myronschabe thank you 🙏🏽
@@myronschabe thanks for watching too! Have a great day ☺️
Fascinating, you must have alot of backache after your work.
Yeh you gota relax. Make the horses comfortable. It's quite a skill.
I once hath a pony that hath the same problem when i was nailing his shoes on. After 1.5 year while nailing his shoes on it went wrong and a nail went trou my nail and finger and i was bleeding like crazy. My custumer pute a lot of ductape on my finger to stop the bleeding so i good finish my work on here pony. After 6 weeks coming back to do my work, the lovely pony hath out of the blue no more trouble when i pute the nails in! I shoe this pony for years and no trouble while nailing his shoe on. I think the pony saw in how match pain i was and did not want to hurt me again. Greetings from a farrier from the Netherlands
You are so passionate with your job and especially handling the beautiful horse.Thank you for doing the video.God Bless
Awww
That's a beautiful story
This is a dangerous job. You make it look easy at times, especially when the horse cooperates and gives you kisses and nibbles through the entire process. Please know I appreciate your hardwork and love for these beautiful and powerful animals.
Thank you Mary ❤ thanks for watching x
He’s a beautiful brat… you handle him very well! Bravo!
😂😂 thank you and thanks for watching!
@@Swfarriers How long between new shoes ?
Magic: he responds to the horse’s frustration, irritation, insecurity or slight aversion with genuine(!) respect, affection & appreciation & allowance/pace, while also maintaining his boundaries in a non domineering stable way.
Which seems counter-intuitive, but actually elegantly allows to validate the horse’s mood, and what do we do when we feel heard & seen? less resistance, more allowance. Very beautiful to witness. ❤
Also crucial: it’s all backed up with profound skill, understanding & refined mastery of the craft. Can’t get any better than that. 🎉
I could watch him all day.
He’s amazing with these horses. He’s right about the energy. ❤
Thank you❤ thanks for watching
My god man . I hope your parents populated this earth with as many good looking kids like you.
He's good looking, strong, intelligent and hard working. He's got it all.
Mary, your just infatuated with him.
That’s the most out there compliment iv ever had 😂 thank you
This work is so important. Absolutely critical to maintaining a sound and healthy horse. So satisfying to watch. Thank you!
I love how you move with him when he pulls away. Its like a dance, and your calm demeanor and total confidence... ALONG with your utmost respect for these BIG animals ....just loved this video. Keep em coming!!
You are absolutely the best! So patient, sweet, kind, lovely and brave! The scratches are appreciated and your smile is adorable! Thank you for sharing your work with us 💞🩷❤️🥰
That's impressive. It takes a special person to dedicate themselves to this kind of work and seemingly love it.
Real artist in his job
It’s so true horses can read what mood you’re in & you’re obviously very privileged Chief lets you shoe him ❤❤❤
So handsome - chief isn’t bad either 🐴
🤣🤣🤣
Bahaha you're not wrong 😂
🤣
I agree with that one. Makes me wanna be a horse...lol
Not just a pretty face, this farrier. It's great to see content on this craft, passed down over centuries. These guys have to have a lot of knowledge about horse gait / anatomy as well as the manual skills, plus being a horse whisperer. A lot of $ at stake too when it comes to racehorses or show horses. I spent childhood years around stallions. This chap is very kind and good at his job. And the incredible neck on that horse!
This man has a rapport with the horses he shoes. He is a master of his craft.
I respect your job. You take a lot of effort and patience for it.
For all the feminists out😅 there who say we don't need men...Pay attention. 🙂Here is a skilled hard working Man. Simple.
I have seen women doing this trade with just as much expertise.
Amen! Feminists are delusional. Back in the 90's, when we were in our 20's, my husband and I both went to farrier school and did this as a full time job for 7 years. SUCH hard strenuous work but a fun time in our lives. At first, customers were very surprised to see a young pretty girl doing this hard work. Sometimes I would kid my husband and say, please tell me this was just a test to prove my love and that your really rich and we can stop this hard dirty stinky job. The truth was I was the one that convinced him to let us quit our big city jail jobs and learn to do what our farrier does. We wouldn't trade a day of it ...well maybe some of the crazy dangerous horse days. Poor things were probably horribly mistreated.
Jokes on you. There are several channels with female farriers. And they are quite popular.
Are you married young man.😊
@l.johnston5152 this is not an either or situation and there is nothing wrong with feminism. Jeez. Men and women are able to do jobs and some are better at some than others. Why the hate? Get over yourself. Your statement is more a reflection of you not feminists.
Great to see how calm you stay under pressure, Sam. Love it ❤
I have a mare that hated the nailing. My farrier is much like you in that he won't fight with them. I also like the way you first talk to them before you grab a leg. It really makes a difference.
A Northern man. No wonder I was interested, along with other reasons. Both my grandfather and father were horse whisperers. They could do anything with horses, including shoeing and blacksmithing. I didn't get to see them working, so I love seeing how its done. As my ancestors were from Lancashire, I get to hear an accent that must be in my genetic memory. I always enjoy watching a craftsman at work. The horses are a bonus. From Australia. Thanks, YT algorithm.
Sam is from Yorkshire. Not Lancashire. Totally different accent.
@@phoenixrising5088is Yorkshire north?
Different,but both Northern English,you can tell a Northern accent when you hear it,just like you could tell a West Country one.
LOVE that accent, not to mention he’s drop dead gorgeous 😂😂
@phoenixrising5088 Thanks for the correction. I just know accents are fascinating. Even our Aussie one has its admirers amazingly.
What a gorgeous beautiful stunning horse! Love black horses and that white star is awesome on him ❤
I would love to know what breed of horse he is. Maybe the farrier said, but I didn't catch it.
Sam, you really are very calm. The horses are very lucky to have you as their farrier.😊
Chief is a feisty one and absolutely gorgeous. He does give you the side eye and be careful he could kick you into the middle of next year and us woman wouldn't want that.
Neither would us men.
So nice to see a real tradesman who has perfected his craft. Real tradesmen are a disappearing breed today! Clearly, patience is an important part his work. Well done!
I could watch this all day what a kind amazing gentle guy ❤❤❤❤
Gave you the side eye glance.... be careful... sending love from the USA 🐴
Chief is so handsome and he has come a long way,the farrier is experienced and knows his job well,he is so calm and quiet and gentle handling chief,he is a good boy
0:20 He's got his eye on you 😂
😂😂 totally!
You can never really know the basis for the horse not wanting to be reshoed! Maybe a farrier hurt him when he was young and is still fearful of getting hurt again! Maybe he saw another horse get hurt during shoeing and just doesn't want the same thing to happen to him. It could be that a previous farrier scared him, so now he has fear of the entire process. Maybe it is uncomfortable for him to hold his legs where they are needed for proper shoeing. There are so many possibilities for his reactions. He may never be at ease. It could be something so simple as that it "feels weird!" You handle him wonderfully! Gentle, patient, caring, and loving. He certainly couldn't be in better hands!!
He’s a very pleasant chap. Doing a great job!! 👍💯🙏✝️🥰🇺🇸
And the calendar is coming out when! ??? Sign me up ! 🇺🇸
I know!!! He’s gunna make heaps off this channel 😂😂❤❤
Darn right sign me up for THREE
It is a real pleasure to see you doing your own kind of magic with these horses. Your calmness and understanding with them even has a soothing effect on me.
Looking very much forward to the next video.
Thank you🙏🏽❤️
I had a beautiful black mare like this one chief for 20 yrs this brought back memories as she could be testy sometimes with the farrier. GOD BLESS YOUR ♥ you do a beautiful job and with such kindness and patience. I just found your channel have thoroughly enjoyed it. You have a back breaking dangerous job stay safe thank you for sharing. Blessings from Texas!!
You are excellent at your job. You have a wonderful way with horses. 🇺🇸❤️🇬🇧
I'm in love with horses and it's so fun to watch your craft....I feel for your back though...haha.
Bless you!
We love your person and your love and compassion and understanding of these beautiful animals. Truly something special you have and we love you for your love 💘
.......That reminded my of my knee replacement. I woke up during surgery because they were pounding something into the freshly sliced off bottom of my femur. The impacts were rippling right up my body to my head. I could see my leg sliced open and spread like a gutted salmon ...blood everywhere. Haha...then I heard "oops" and the hiss of gas got louder. No pain though. The pounding was unnatural...my brain said you should wake up.
Yikes. I'm so sorry that happened, I've had a knee replacement too but thankfully that never happened! 🇬🇧
“ give a little stroke , introduce yourself , be polite before i go down and grab the leg “
I mean come on 😂😂
now there's a young lady that knows how to grab sams attention
@Starjules2212 do you think that was intentional?
This guy makes my ovaries hurt. Lawdy I think I’m getting a hot flash! 😂
He is a bit of a pistol, well handled!! You are right, it's all in your energy. 😊
A true horse whisperer. You have a wonderful talent and it's a pleasure to get to watch. Stay safe and well. Hugs from Mississippi USA.
Never watched a farrier before. It is very interesting.
my dad was a farrier in thetford norfolk then joined the royal horse in 1936 as a farrier served 24 yrs good at his job like you
You are a GREAT EXAMPLE of how to treat a Horse ❤
Job well done! You are so respectful to the horse.
The whole process is mesmerising to watch and you are so calm and nurturing with your horses.
Nice to the farrier working with the horses anxiety to slowly complete the shoeing.
Wonderful job ....so nice to see full-length videos now on the Tube .... thank you so much, and keep well !!
Chief seems to have sensitive feet and you are able to recognize that. You really are a horse whisperer😘
What i love about these videos apart from the craftsman's abilities of the farrier, is the fact that human and animal have feelings for each other and the trust the animals show. You just can't beat that kind friendship, incredibly sweet and moving.. We are all so tired of viewing aggression, devastation and scamming all around us in the world even in films for entertainment.
Everything about this man is attractive, but his accent is what keeps me coming back.
My language is Spanish, I don’t understand anything he says but his voice is so manly and attractive I just keep coming back as well. 😂🤣🤭🥰💞🐎🩷
@nadiabernal480 Don't feel too bad....most English speakers outside of the UK likely have a hard time understanding his Yorkshire accent, but we love the sound of it too!
@@melanies.6030 😆🐎💞🥰
@@melanies.6030 Keegan Hirst is also from Yorkshire, right? His accent is similar.
@@1hayes1Sorry, but I have no idea who that is.
Nice control so sweet and calm while working with Chief and trying to show us how to work on a horses hoof.
What a wonderful profession, and calling at the same time. It warms my heart to see such devotion and respect for these wonderful animals! Thank you so much for sharing!
I hope the owner of this difficult horse knows what an incredible farrier he has and maybe pays him double his fee. He must know how very unlikely it is, someone else will have the same skills, patience and good humor to put up with this horse.
One hunk of a horse. I’m not a horse person although I’ve ridden a couple of times. They just seem so daunting to me. This one is indeed a black beauty. Thanks for sharing.
Truly wonderful. What a lovely job. I am so glad that Chief has a caring farrier!!
So much respect and thanksgiving for “ The Farrier” …. Especially ones with an accent!❤
You're like a Horsewhisperer ,brilliant job👍👍🐴❤️🥰
La passion du cheval, de la nature de cet homme est un réel plaisir à regarder. Un moment de la "vraie vie" loin de la course à la technologie, de l'addiction aux écrans et de la saturation des infos en continu. Mille Merci pour cette belle vidéo qui, de plus, montre un bel homme sympathique et passionné.
Lose your temper, game over. A life lesson. I learned that lesson the hard way. Great channel. Thanks.
I love the patience you have, everyone needs a farrier like you!
I’ve been waiting to see a horse that is not totally chill with the process. Fascinating to watch you work with Chief. He’s beautiful and you obviously take good care of his hooves! ❤❤
Horses are not all so straight forward😂, it’s important to make the experience as pleasant as possible, horses will always remember when you are good to them. Thank you 😊
You are super patient…which makes perfect sense when dealing with a ‘client’ who is nervy. I’d imagine you have a decent rapport with him after shoeing him for 10 years. Thanks Sam this was really a great lesson on managing your energy and doing a great job shoeing Chief. Though mind he is a beautiful horse…so maybe he’s allowed to be a bit of a drama queen!😄
Handsome man, beautiful horse, amazing accent, what a perfect video!
Just found you and love your work and approach. I have 2ottb rescues and we have 8 other rescues of various sizes and ages. The art of what you do is sooo much from just shoeing. I have done a lot of work with ours on trust and ground work to enable shoeing in particular. It has taken us 5 different farriers and ours who is almost your twin work wise. I have 1 who is very sooky and so gentle and stands great. I had one farriers who took after him for swishing his tail at a fly... Mind U we live in Australia and it's summer. He recoiled so hard I've never seen him have a response like that. Our last ottb was on deaths door. I got her and our farrier Chris Lee saw her the next day. As we got her picked up we were told she would need to be sedated to be trimmed. Chris had as much on as this great guy. One of her back legs looked like it had almost been degloved at one point. When he did her backs he could see an attempt had been made to do them but could see evidence where she had most likely been hit with the rasp multiple times. He also knew previous owners and said he had expected worse. She loves him they all do. We have a 45yo mini with laminitis that is now galloping with the rest as he had to do so much rehab on her feet. U guys are amazing and so thankful there are farriers around like U guys
I watch these videos because they are calming. And I love the way this man handles the horses, with love and respect. I used to ride horses, now I have asthma to them, I miss horses.
I appreciate how calmly you speak to him and your patience❤❤❤
They are so smart that they understand people! You manage to come to an agreement with them, despite the fact that they also have different characters. 😊
I’m new to your channel and I just wanted to tell you I’ve got mad respect for what you do.
When I was younger and owned horses my favorite day was the visit from the farrier. It meant that my horse was going to feel better.
It’s a pleasure to watch you talk and handle these amazing souls. Thank you!!
How they listen to you. Amazing.👏👏👏👍💞💞
I think this is the most "antsy" horse I've seen you work on, but well done keeping him calm so you could get the job done 👍
Horses are very sensitive, they can feel a horsefly land on their back, they can sense a humans demeanor very easily, they weigh about 1500 pounds ... they are gentle giants. A good farrier sees these horses about every 6 weeks ... you might as well be kind ... Otherwise you may not get anywhere! 😊
@@donnamcclellan8511 and I would think this is similar to us going to the dentist. All of the pulling and vibration from scraping and then the smoking and burning and then the nailing etc.
Tento pan podkovář je pán s velkým Pé.Nervózního koně si umí podmanit svým milým přístupem, podrbáním a poplacáním a klidným promlouváním.Proto má můj velký obdiv.👍🥇 Tato profese je tvrdá obživa a moc lidí se na ní nehlásí.Děkuji za poučná videa 👌🍀🍀🍀
Wonderful to watch your skill and patience.
You are wonderful with them. Thank you for sharing!
Fabulous work (as usual) under pressure. Even my dogs despise having their nails done, and I completely understand.
I love how you treat these beautiful horses. With skill ,care,patience and love of what you do. Keep it up
Well done! The horse appreciates your kindness! You have a beautiful smile.
The way he speaks to the horses is wonderful. Credit to you for this job such hard work. Interested in knowing does he have his own horses and rides as well. Great channel.
Ps Chief is not the only “good looking lad” in this video !
This horse is so fun and funny. When he doesn't like something, he will let you know. Hilarious 😂😂😂😂
Stellar work bro..nothin quite like competence.❤👍
I agree, animals feel our energy before anything else. Thank you for sharing your work with us. Sending love and light from Hawai’i. 🙏🏼💜❤️🩷💙
Thank you ❤️
Every time you say “Good Boy” he seems to think “Oh I’ll Show You!” Lol
These farriers are gold!❤. Hard labour professionals!❤. Sharp tools are much safer to use….
Chief is a very handsome fellow!
Thank you Sam for explaining all and about the energy. The smoke you breathe in....worrying it might be bad for you long term?!! Chief is gorgeous, no need for coffee in AM!!
Chief is reminding you who's boss. Spicy horse, handsome too.
I think Chief has picked up on your calming energy, you have a good aura about you. Best wishes from South Africa
Had a mare like that. The blacksmith tried just about everything imaginable, but she was determined that it was her foot and she wasn't sharing. The smithy came out for a trim and brought an assistant with him. The assistant was pushing 80 and weighed about the same but he rocked my horse to sleep. I've never seen anything like it. He stood on the side of the head, placed 1 hand on the halter up by the poll and the other hand next to where the nose band of the halter meets the cheek strap. Then its a push pull action from top to bottom until the head starts to rock. It'll rock easier as it goes. Gramps rocked her to sleep. They used two walls meeting at a right angle to stand her against. 1 wall on the opposite side of the person doing the rocking so there is nothing coming at her from that side and one wall behind her. Nothing to see there and not completely trapped. The area in front was open with the rocker standing at the side of the head and the smithy on the same side, put the shoes on without her miss stepping once. Gramps started rocking, her head dropped, and she took a nap. Take away the stimulation, the food and limit his sight, then start rocking and see what happens. If anyone tries this and it works let me know.
That’s incredible! 😮
@@rachelweinstein9008 thats what I thought. Great Gramps was out teaching old school and my jaw hit the floor
Chiefs owner needs to do some serious groundwork to make your life easier😳🥴 wish every farrier was like you. Patience of a friggin saint!! My 1.5 year old was untouched when I bought him and was a nightmare feet wise but now he’s a great boy - GROUNDWORK GUYS MAKE YOUR FARRIERS LIFE EASIER😩
Ground work doesn't fix all equine ills. This horse needs to be assessed by a clinical behaviourist to understand why he is performing these avoidance behaviours. The horse is worried by something or he is in pain or discomfort. I suspect that, if the cause is found out and rectified for the horse, this wonderful and sensitive handling by the farrier will be all the 'training' he needs to stand calmly whilst behind trimmed and shod.
@@nicolachamberlain8386 90 percent of the time the ground work will fix problems like this horse has...if that doesn't work then whatever you are talking about is worth a try...but the point the commentor makes is valid....the owners should prepart these horses more so the farrier's job is easier.
@@nicolachamberlain8386 , nah, the OP is correct, the owner needs to put the work in. 50 years of working with and owning horses and I'd be ashamed if my horses didn't stand beautifully for the farrier. I would never expect the farrier to work on a foot I couldn't lift and handle myself. It goes without saying that Chief is worried, I don't believe that horses are willfully 'naughty' but that worry is overcome with gentle and consistent work by the owner.
@@evieblessed i worked on a ranch with some older horses that were lame and couldn't lift their feet for you. I figured out if you lean against them on one side they will shift their weight to the other side and then i could pick up their leg for them .😊
@@JazzlynnRoscoe , I like that, it's a gentle way to encourage them to lift their feet.
😂.... Broline 😮... ❤✌️🇫🇴🤫🦋☕🍀Swden...
Thank you for sharing these fantastic videos. You’ve completely demystified this process and it’s wonderful to watch a pro like you in action! Thank you! 😊
The work that you do is very beautiful, and God Almighty will reward you for your work with the best reward, because it is a work of great goodness that brings comfort to God’s beloved creatures.
He didn't like your trollies 😅🙊 but you handled him really well 👌💯 new subscriber here
it's darn mesmerizing watching this guy
Watch your toes ❤ love watching your videos.
You are so awesome with the horses. You read them so well, that's why they trust you. 😊
Beautiful job. His feet look like they are a sculpture. Perfect
