Shoeing a Horse With Shoes Made by Someone Else at a Contest

I went to a horseshoeing competition this last summer in Deer Park, WA and they had all the leftover shoes from one of the classes available for people to take and I grabbed a bunch of the "Lateral Support Shoes" so I could use them in my everyday practice. These hind shoes were made by someone else and I ended up using them on this horse. They certainly have come in handy!

You are the best!
If we ever had a horse or horse’s, and lived in Wash., we would have you as our farrier!!
You are the best on utube!!
Love your work!

I put on your videos and listen to them when doing chores, cause I like the combo of shoeing sounds and you talking 😂. As a bonus I'm learning about hooves, horses and shoeing haha. Happy New Year! 😊

[@ralphdavis955]

Great video, Sir. Like the way you explain each step of the shoeing process. Keep em coming...

[@jm5955]

Thanks for explaining how you knife out the clip seat. I’ve been doing it wrong.

Happy New Year !🎉

Love the way you took and are using the shoes from a competition that would have been thrown out. Great idea and why not use them? Seems that they are working just fine for you.

Really interesting

Nice vid - four things struck me as I watched...and listened - 1) I coulda been listening to my own Instructor Hank McEwan back in 1981, with your running play by play, lol. 2) I pretty much say all the same things to myself on each horse, except in my head, and it's usually Hank's voice I hear naggin' me. 3) With your comments being mini explanations of both what you're doing, and why, maybe you might give some thought to becoming a future Instructor, once your back and knees give out...and they will, lol. No need to ask me how I know. And 4) What's wtith the magnetic tow lights on your Rig's back bumper? 🙂

Thanks for the words. I had a short in the wiring of my trailer and didn’t have the time to get it fixed so I had these laying around and used em temporarily. I actually re-wired the trailer the other day and have all working lights again 👌

[@WillSturgeon-ts4is]

All the great trimming shoeing footage, and some idiot picks on your emergency tow lights, eh? lol . Finally got my new Natures Farms tool caddy, was back ordered. Much better than the Cricket.Plus since I'm 75, I get to use it as an old fogey walker! @@USAfarrier-pnwfarriershow
