Master craftsmanship, it's amazing to me that you can take a straight piece of metal and make a perfectly fit shoe.

That was some incredible diagnosis and work. I went to Oklahoma Horseshoeing School back in the 1980s and learned a lot. One thing I definitely learned is there is no substitute for doing the work, caring for the horse, perfecting the shoe placement and forge work, and definitely fine tuning the shoe through know how and hard work. You're a masterful farrier and your vet work on this horse is to be admired. You care about your job/calling and you are a master horseshoer. Thank you.

Thank you for explaining what you're doing! I work at a horse sanctuary, and rarely have the opportunity to ask our ferrier in-depth questions. Watching you make the shoe from scratch was incredibly cool. Some of our horses have similar shoes to help manage their laminitis, so seeing how a skilled worker fabricated it was special.

You sir are an artist with that iron. Truly an artist. Love watching custom horseshoes be made

I thought immediately that it needed copper sulphate before as soon as I saw it. I used to treat severely lame sheep here in the UK with copper sulphate and lard bandaged onto the foot. It really works.

What a treat to observe a custom prosthetic/therapeutic shoe created for this affected horse by a master ferrier.Brilliant.

You know, I think that's the cleanest, freshest pair of hoof trimmers I've ever seen in my entire life. All the ones I've ever seen from memory were old, dark, and slightly rusted from lack of use.

Kudos to all farriers! Their work is extremely physically taxing, and they care for our horses well by educating themselves with training and experience. I admire them.

That was very interesting. I’ve heard of these heel cracks but never seen one before. Fortunately none of my horses have ever had any injuries or problems with their feet except a poor old soul I rescued. He had foundered but we managed to fix him up and for now he’s just enjoying his twilight years in the fields with my other horses. I hope his feet continue to behave for at least a few more years so he can enjoy just being a horse.

It is an amazing thing to change a life.

Wow. That was awesome. Making that shoe from scratch was incredible artistry and skill.

Got to be one of the best farriers I've seen. Top notch care, skills and gentle. And that horse shoe was incredibly done.. You get a ten out of a ten...

This can also occur due to contracted heels due to improper trimming. If the lateral bar wall is scraped thin, it causes a weakness in those bars, which are like metal stanchions in engineering, which hold the heels out. When they become thin and weak, they can no longer do their job, so the heels curl inwards squeezing the frog which then inverts, causing this injury. Contracted heels can be dangerous as it can damage the cartilage, which is called sheared heels. This can end the career and life of a horse.

Fabulous to watch this man…his care + expertise as he treated this horse with such dignified gentle care is humbling. Thank you for sharing your remarkable work. 🐎

I haven’t had horses for many years but I always find it fascinating how the horses feet work and how this will help them to be balanced. Excellent video.

You can always tell how well kept and cared for a horse is by the quality of the work done on his hoofs, and If I were to ever own a horse I would want this quality of work done on him/her. THe hoof is perfectly shaped and to have custom shoes made right on the spot for the animal's needs based upon the condition and health of the hooves is the only way to go. Something about the look of a horse whose hooves are clean, perfectly shaped and smooth, like brand new tires and rims on your well kept off road truck! Well done! I bet all the other horses in the barn are all jealous now over the custom shoe this horse has for his sore foot! LOL

I have no reason to watch this video but came across it…… WOW INCREDIBLE WORK! Who ever learns this man’s ways will learn something very special. This is talent!

Absolutely beautiful professional work. Your smithwork is amazing. Thank you for sharing. 🙂

Ouch!!! Any way we could get an update on the healing progress after a few months?

Don't know how I came across your channel, but your care of horses is fascinating! God bless!

I am glad the horse is on the road to recovery. Would be great to see an update in the future if possible.

This was my first time ever seeing a horseshoe being made. I thought you got them already made. I’m very impressed. That farrier has impressive skills 👍👍

@AlphaDogChoppers

Most horseshoes are bought already made. They come in a selection of sizes. The ferrier has to shape them to fit a horse’s foot. Some ferriers use a forge and heat the shoes to fit them, but many ferriers will adjust the fit cold. What we saw here is non-typical. A bar shoe like this is equivalent to a custom made orthotic. Shoes like this are a one-off in order to reinforce a foot that needs additional structural support.

The shoe is a work of art, especially since it was created by hammering white-hot metal unaided by any machines. And the horse seemed incredibly cooperative.

A blacksmith and pedicurist in one. Makes me happy to see the work you do for these horses and other hooved animals.

As the possessor of troublesome painful feet my heart goes out to the poor horses, and my gratitude to the extraordinary knowledge and care as well as the sympathetic kindness of the farrier .

This is my new favorite video on this channel! I love the explanations of what is being done and why, love seeing the horse, too! And as always I love love watching the metal working! 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

Working with these horses daily I fail to see just how the owners don't know the horse needs some help. Keep up the great work you do for these lovely animals.

You are definitely a master at your craft both horseshoeing and blacksmithing beautiful job on that weld. Take care stay safe and God bless ✌️🇨🇦

My TB developed a crack just like that after having to stand in deep, sticky, adobe mud from a massive weeklong rainstorm. Where he was at the time there were no box stalls. I too used Kopertox and put him on 3/4" rubber mats under his shelter so that he could escape from the mud at least most of the day. The fissure never completely closed up and disappeared, but he was sound.

Beautiful work! Beautiful animal. You care and it shows!❤

Wow you are definitely a farrier at the top of your profession. I have multiple farriers over the years and I can honestly say that only a couple were as experienced and professional as you.🤩🤩👏👏🐴🐴🇦🇺🇦🇺

These guys in Idaho are some of the very best in the profession if not the best. Not to deny there are many great ferriers out there.

It impresses me because I know I couldn't get it right in a week or longer😒. Anyhow, keep up the fantastic work out there and keep them ponies trottin' 🧲🐎 ... Kudos from the mountains of NC!!!

Thank you, Sir, for sharing your skills and work with us. Your skills are obvious and there for all to see. All the people you work for should feel proud to have you. Best wishes.

Can also pack with medicated cotton ball. Good job with your trim. I have a nice mare who was trimmed with her toe trimmed and heels left long and she had developed clubby feet and contracted heels. Broken over. We are finally getting her straightened out. She is much more cooperative while being ridden. 😊

I love animals. I love to see animals who have some kind of injury, been neglected, other issue be fixed or treated with kindness. I have been watching videos about cows being trimmed for years, with the problems they have. I have recently become fascinated with videos of horses and donkeys that have been neglected and have long hooves.

Incredible result and workmanship. Nice to see that these kinds of issues can be addressed.

It would be Greatly appreciated! My compliments for such a fine job! And it TRULY warms my heart to see that there are still people who are willing to pick up forging horseshoes from point 0!
