That’s quite the old girl there. Thirty years old. She must be well cared for. Growing up we had a Holsteiner who lived to 37 years. He was a lovely old boy.
Man that horse is beautiful. And I know the video is about the horse but there's something about watching a shoe be handmade from a straight piece of metal. Awesome work.💪
beautiful red leopard. Awesome work. I grew up in a small town in Germany, and my pony had her shoes hot-fitted every time. It was a thing back then. I walked her through two villages, and the blacksmith/farrier's shop was downtown on a cobblestone road. Miss those days. None of this is left, I was told.
Beautiful brought back memories for sure I was only 8 my dad was always putting shoes on his work horses he made mines rember. For coal mines. I’ve enjoyed watching this them tools still the same
Seriously.....you are a master at work. Your workmanship and understanding of the issues helps all the horses you care for immeasurably. Brilliant work.
I love that they are still providing such detailed care for an old 30-year old. Not everyone does; many would provide a routine trim (if that) and let the horse go unshod. Great job.
Exceptional channel, absolutely love the work you incredible guys do for these beautiful horses, 30 yrs old, that's awesome, I could watch you making shoes all day long, thank you so much, and take care.👍💙🐎
I do love horses! What you do is beautiful !! The power of transformation and wellbeing of them! Love it! Very engaging! Thank you for sharing knowledge ! Blessings
Appaloosas have a soft spot in my heart. I rode one a sweet Appy pony that was about this age in my late 20s. He was the sweetest (if not a bit manic at times.) Another great heart bar.
Your talent and hard work in getting to the level you have achieved is impressive. You always do fantastic work on each horse. Congrats on rendering a beautiful foot every time from across the country in western NC, little Burnsville!! Love your work out here 👍🐎
These old horses deserve the best treatment in the world! And I got the urge to slather that hoof in some good hoofoil after. Beautiful result, and I'm sure that horse feel a lot more comfy. I could tell they really appreciated the care! As someone whos had horses in their 30s and late 20s I know all to well how the hooves change with age, and how important hoof care is for their overall health and wellness. No hooves no horse. Amazing job as alway! Thank you for sharing!
You must have a natural spiritual connection to these animals. How else can one take a rod of hot metal and a hammer and make these curative, magnificent works of art?
Thank you!! You finally explained what you were doing and why!! I appreciated that so much!! You just didn't just shoe a horse. You gave a reason WHY you were shoeing it the way you did. It wasn't a SILENT VIDEO!! YAY!! Thank you so much again. From a Retired Paramedic and Horse Trainer in Ontario, Canada, Jenn. 💖 🇨🇦🇺🇲
You do incredible work! Years ago we got our horses trimmed up by a Ferrier out of Cranbrook, B.C., his name was Vern, and he was the best Ferrier I ever got to work with. Vern could trim up or shoe a horse in short order, and his work was always top notch!
First time viewer here. I am awestruck!! This was fascinating to watch. What a true and beautiful skill; hard work, artistry and functionality. I had no idea. Can't wait to check out your channel. Thank you !!
I have not been around horses for 30 years and I find these videos fascinating. Even back in the day I had no idea of the almost unlimited types of problems farriers have to manage. Hard to believe what many horses suffer especially given the unrelieved weight on their hooves. As I have said, surgeon, engineer, artist all part of being a farrier's vocation.
My complements! 🎉To me, being a farrier is an awesome combination of artist & strongman...😊 Artist in that you literally convert something that looks like a hoof into a real one...the same for new shoes....the "strongman" is the sheer physical effort to do both...last but not least, the love of horses & the way you relieve their distress & make them new again...that is why I subbed...May God bless you & all those who do this necessary work....😊
Great workmanship you truly do know your art and foot x hoof health, the horses know a feel your confident terrier skills ,,the white horse had some sore hooves but you repaired it, and with concrete plan of terrier intervention,l wWELL DONE,,😊😊
Could this horse have just been trimmed? At 30 I would hope it isn't being ridden anymore and gets to spend its last years in a nice pasture. BTW its awesome how you beat the crap out of a piece of metal and turn it into a shoe that fits the horse perfectly. Thanks for sharing.
There are horses that when they reach senior age (18) will willingly retire and go to pasture. Some will want to work into their 20s before they say, "I wish to retire to the pastures and eat grass all day now." And then there are the Abbys and Gooses in the world - who were 32 when I rehabbed her and are 29 (his current age); they simply hear the word "retirement" and throw tantrums. They're happiest and feel most fulfilled having some sort of job, even if it's just a lesson or two. Abby eventually did retire; Goose is semi-retired. He plays more than he works (not that he knows this.) Every single horse is different and it's not wrong for them to work at 30. It's only wrong if the horse clearly shows he HATES working.
I'm really amazed by the work you guys do ! I have always liked horses but the experiences i have with the few i have been around was not good almost bitten the first time and partially headbutted the the 2nd so left me scared around them. So i just admire them from afar
I find it interesting how different in function cow and horse hooves are Where cow hooves need a recess in the middle for traction and horses are just flat. With shoes to mock that recess
Baby got new shoes! I really enjoy watching you work and love that you explain why you're doing what you're doing with the hooves you work on. I actually from you, and I'm not even a farrier! Really good stuff.

Such craftsmanship. Without any machines, computers, measurements. Pure skill.

Aww
Gosh hope that horse can get back to halfway normal but in the meantime you probably made him feel 10 years younger
Thank you
The inside of a horses foot/ hoof looks like an owl.😊❤
@@lisarichardson8639 That is because it is an owl. Did you not know that owls live on horses' feet?
So labor intensive. It sure requires knowledge and practice. What an art!
Good job 👍 Lot of skill in this guys hands 🙌
Beautiful brought back memories for sure I was only 8 my dad was always putting shoes on his work horses he made mines rember. For coal mines. I’ve enjoyed watching this them tools still the same
Seriously.....you are a master at work. Your workmanship and understanding of the issues helps all the horses you care for immeasurably. Brilliant work.
What a wonderful skill to have. Bless you. You help so many magnificent animals. Thank you 😊 ❤.
Wow this craft is truly an art form. You’re so talented. And I bet that old horse is going to feel like a million bucks 🎉❤
A MILLION TIME BETTER FOR THE HORSE YOU REALLY NEVER SEEM TO AMAZE ME ON YOUR CHISES FOR THE WELL OF THE ANIMAL 🥰
I love that they are still providing such detailed care for an old 30-year old. Not everyone does; many would provide a routine trim (if that) and let the horse go unshod. Great job.

He’s just hanging out getting a pedicure, he looks relaxed. Love it. Dude! Wake me up when it’s over.
there is something soothing to me about watching horses being shoed and hoofs trimmed. the horses seem to know your taking good care of them.😊
The skill of these farriers is simply incredible. Fascinating to watch
I'm amazed at the work you guys do 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
You guys do a lot of really good work for these horses, getting them back to moving around better with less pain.
Fabulous work, love watching and your reasons for how you make the shoe. Doing a full set of shoes takes time and the horses are so patient.
Exceptional channel, absolutely love the work you incredible guys do for these beautiful horses, 30 yrs old, that's awesome, I could watch you making shoes all day long, thank you so much, and take care.👍💙🐎
that appie has that signature "human eye" - unique to that breed - don't see it that often anymore - they've bred it out of them :(
Love your videos!!! So interesting and informative! And when you make custom shoes… extra treat!
Glad you like them!
I do love horses! What you do is beautiful !! The power of transformation and wellbeing of them! Love it! Very engaging! Thank you for sharing knowledge ! Blessings
The horse is so calm. Blessings to you.
I really love watching what you do for all these horses,giving them much needed relief.Not to mention learning.
I could watch this all day long !!!!!!!
Appaloosas have a soft spot in my heart. I rode one a sweet Appy pony that was about this age in my late 20s. He was the sweetest (if not a bit manic at times.) Another great heart bar.
Great to watch a Journeyman solving each unique horse hoof problems
These are so satisfying to watch.
Your talent and hard work in getting to the level you have achieved is impressive. You always do fantastic work on each horse. Congrats on rendering a beautiful foot every time from across the country in western NC, little Burnsville!! Love your work out here 👍🐎
The work you do never ceases to amaze me. Beautiful craftsmanship all around!
Incredible how good these guys are.
What skill sets ! And a fine understanding of problem solving for the unique hoof. And , you are fun to watch !
Impressive young man! And the horse! Live long and prosper!
These old horses deserve the best treatment in the world!
And I got the urge to slather that hoof in some good hoofoil after. Beautiful result, and I'm sure that horse feel a lot more comfy. I could tell they really appreciated the care!

Amazing job as alway! Thank you for sharing!
30 years I didn't know horses can live that long
Sure can! My two lived to 30 and 34. With good care it's possible but just like with humans, every horse is different.
Yes, some live well into their 30s. My lesson pony is 29 and is laughing in the face of retirement. He refuses to give up his lifestyle.
30 years isn't very old yet, I was still competing with my oldest until 36. He passed at 38. All of my horses have gotten to at least 35.
Medium life span of horses 25-30 years, not long. With a well care they can live to 35-40 years .
What a beauty, my favorite horse. Thank you.
You must have a natural spiritual connection to these animals. How else can one take a rod of hot metal and a hammer and make these curative, magnificent works of art?
Wonderful the difference you make in these beautiful animals' lives.
That is some very nice work!
Man I feel like any horse that makes it to 30 should get full health coverage, old girl deserves a proper shoeing whenever she needs it =D
I love your videos.
I love to watch you work.
A true custom Work of ART!

Hoof dust falling from rasping is so satisfying
Nice work you are a professional no doubt thanks for being kind to the horse some farriers are real rough💫👍🏾👍🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Beautiful craftsmanship

Not to mention the female farrier who won in one episode of “Forged in Fire.”
I would have loved to see the four hooves. Thank you !
thank you, absolute perfekte Schmiedearbeit - ❤ from Germany
I’m so amazed at how a piece of metal can be made into a custom horseshoe. You do amazing work!
Oh wow that's how that's done, thanks for sharing
Thank you for another video❤❤❤❤.
Very nice work.
You boys get it done.

Congratulations on your excellent work 👏👏👏
Gorgeous horse. You fellas are amazing. If I lived in the area and had horses your place would be the only ones allowed to touch my horses feet. ❤❤❤
Those heart bar shoes can work wonders helping the old horse out. Beautiful work.
That was amazing ! Thanks .
I love the sound of pounding the hot metal.
Wow! I do so appreciate craftmanship at its finest. Great work.
Outstanding work .😊
Very cool. Thanks for posting.

I enjoy your work! You are so good at what you do.

It was “Custom Shoe” that caught my attention. There was a farrier about a quarter mile from my boyhood home who did corrective and hot shoeing.
You are an artist.
Hi I like your videos as your work speaks for itself
Awesome job
I couldn’t even tell you what a farrier was but then I randomly found this channel about a year ago and now it’s so satisfying to watch these videos.
Trabalho de artificie,Deus lhe retribua com prosperidade 🙏🏼🐎🇧🇷
A very satisfying job.
Beautiful work.👍
Outstanding work.
Amazing job and beautiful red leopard senior Appy.
I find it interesting how different in function cow and horse hooves are
Where cow hooves need a recess in the middle for traction and horses are just flat. With shoes to mock that recess
I enjoy watching you and you explaining what you are doing.
Beautiful shoe 😊
Now you know where the old saying Strike while the Iron is hot. Think is a work of art
Damn! That’s what you call skill! Awesome stuff that helps to keep the horse healthy. Wow!!!!!
Wow what a difference. Thanks for sharing.
Complimenti,siete un artista in questa professione!
I seem to remember hearing that Appaloosas tend to require rocker toes. Never understood why before.
Rocker Toe: putting a spring back in that horse's step. 😊
To super jednička mezi světem profík co dotat toť vše Česko Michal 🇨🇿✌️✌️😎✌️❤
Great Video ❤ Thanks for sharing your time with all of us ❤
Baby got new shoes! I really enjoy watching you work and love that you explain why you're doing what you're doing with the hooves you work on. I actually from you, and I'm not even a farrier! Really good stuff.
Beautiful work! Thanks for posting this.
Beautiful job done. On a beautiful horse.🐎
Thanks!
