When I was a kid, 10 or so, when it was farrier day I was there on an upturned bucket watching everything. We had a barn that has a safe place from a kid to chill safely. I always found it amazing how some horses came in so ripped up, half the hoofs still in the shoe, or thrush that was bad from some of our guys in the wet fields. I would love to sit and watch, chat, learn, and I felt blessed these hardworking men and one woman would slow down just enough to point something out different on a certain horse. An angle or a crack in a bad spot that won’t heal without a lots of help. My old old blacksmith worked into his 90’s (!!!) and he loved to teach as well as get some help! He would ramble on with his tales and stories and I love them.

You can see a small vertical incision in the foot above the hoof, so I'm betting that this started as a foot injury where the pressure buildup caused it to blowout through the hoof. The foot looks fine now and was obviously drained, so besides the bacterial sinus track through the hoof the foot looks nice and healed. Iodine or chlorhexadine foot soaks might also prove beneficial in getting into the track and drying up any remaining infection and inflammation. Gotta say I really liked the ingenuity in using an old rasp to build the frog support and the use of dental putty to cushion it. I hope this gentle guy heals and gets his spirit back. ❤

@peteacher52 The horse was probably sedated a little, so that he didnt feel too much pain when the infected area was worked on. If a horse feels pain by something you did, they are going to let you know. And since they outweigh a human by at least 5x, if they dont like what you are doing to their feet and it hurts, they arent going to stand there peacefully with their foot up.

They literally made a prosthetic for this horse, this is unreal there's some serious talent here.
You can tell how dead that side of the hoof is; it was very squishy. The half-shoe is brilliant.
I never realized how much these horses can go through.. thank you for helping!
Great job! Thank you for helping out this sweet horsey. Looks like the owners love her - correction: him - lots, and I hope she's getting some sort of treatment for that arthritic left joint. Get well soon! ❤🐴❤
Oh my goodness, he was so sweet! With your little assistant at the end, he must be so gentle! 😍😍😍
Very interesting, please do a follow-up video, I'd really like to see how he recovers.
How you figure out how to configure the shoe to fit the hoof is truly a mystery! Amazing work! Hope to see a follow up on this guy!
Awesome job you done there, I've been around horses most of my life and always admired the good honest hard work done by a farrier, must play havoc with your lower back though, anyway, well done and would love to see any follow-up if possible 👏 👏👍👍
Many moons ago I had a horse with terrible sand racks on three feet. In the UK we have a product called Cornucressin, rubbing that into the coronary bands with a tooth brush, made the hoof growth a lot faster and all had grown out in four months.
The sheer number of tools and skills shown in this video is incredible, you are a master! Seeing that shoe come together felt like magic, using a piece of a rasp in that way was genius. Thank you for sharing your trade with us!
Would love to get an update on him. And all the other injuries and infections. Even if they're just progress photos all stacked into one video.
He looked so much more comfortable in that after video. Hope they do some ice boot soaks on that swollen knee!
Amazing job creating a shoe for this guy. I was floored when you started hammering out that rasp!I’m glad you said something about his left knee because I was about to ask!
That was fascinating 😮......Amazing skill you have sir. I'm sure the horse appreciates your fine work!
OUCH!!! Thank you for helping. ❤
Curious what are the chances of the horse tripping and getting hurt from only having half a hoof?
Watching you I have a new found respect for farriers. Tough job that requires a lot of knowledge.
Not putting anyone down. Is this something the student missed initially or was it found after horse stepped wrong? Thank you for sharing these stories with us.
Omgoodness!!! Look! What an AMAZING job! Ya know, a lot of peeps don't have this service available to them. So, because of your expertise, this beloved babe gets to live and heal!!! Thank you, Thank you! ❤🐎❤️
Wow I’d love to see follow up videos of this progress
Dang. I hope the student knows they aren't the one who caused the issue, only the lucky one who was there when it showed up. I'm glad you were able to do something until the hoof grows out. Kind of looks like a founder ring, doesn't it?
Seeing amazing work like this is one of the reasons I love this channel. Seeing traditional methods and modern applications to solve issues like this. I hope there are follow up videos.
What workmanship and expertise!!!!!!
Dude!! You continually amaze me!!! That's absolutely beautiful!!! I'm assuming the horse's knee is so swollen is because he was bearing most of the weight on that leg??? Sure glad I found your channel!!! Blessings, Bridge
Wonderful fix!
Uh, like going to the dentist. I wonder if horses start to dread the sound of that drill! :P Thanks for helping him.
This boy needs to be in that series "Forged". He's got skills.
Never saw shoe like this and God bless this farrier!
Oh my gosh! I'm kind of freaking out, thinking about going to the dentist for work on a cavity. Did you give him a bit of novacaine or at least a local numbing agent? Thank you for helping these beautiful, silent animals who cannot tell us about their pain.

For what it's worth, trimming their hooves is like cutting fingernails for us and it doesn't really hurt unless you go too deep :)
you guys are amazing!!! so gifted -keep up the good work and God bless y'all
Just incredible the work ya'll do for horses.
Thanks for the video. My favorite part is watching the instructor make the horseshoes. Those hand forged shoes take talent and those students are lucky to have such a fantastic instructor.
Life saver! Nice work, as always.
Poor horse. I wonder if a rescue, how he got to this point. He walks good, I knew you could help him!! Would love to see an update❤❤❤
What other profession is there where you need to be a blacksmith, a veteranarian and a manicurist all at the same time? It's an ancient, noble calling.
Great work as always. Like so many others, I would love to see a follow up on this one.
This farrier is good more than good this horse is lucky to have him doing his hoof job. Sure hope he heals.
Blacksmith, engineer, and vet tech all in one
You guys did a great job! I'm really impressed with the improvised shoe and how well it fits. I'd love to see how his capsule progresses in the future
another innovative shoe. amazing how they know exactly what the hoof needs relieve pressure. 🐴🌷🌱
That was really interesting. I wondered how he was going to protect that hoof. Nice work.
Great work - love what you guys do ! I'm hoping for a follow up - update on this beautiful horse and hoof ! ❤
your skills, your techniques, and the benevolence you have towards this horse, are a pleasure to see. you wish the best for him, it's all to your credit. animal welfare comes first. THANKS
Looks like a combination of dentistry and auto body shop work. That was a great job!
Wow! Beautiful work!! I am thoroughly impressed!! 😀👍💯
Great job. Thanks for doing your very best to help him.
It was interesting to see how you can help a horse with a problem like that. I hope his owner can do something for that awful knee too. Thank you for sharing.
Nice and unusual!👍👍👍
Exceptional job, wow! Poor horse, and he's so beautiful too, will there be an update on him? Thank you so much for all you do for these beautiful horses, just incredible, take care.👍💙🐎
My words would seem inadequate; the video speaks for itself. 👍👍
Amazing work on the horse. He is very handsome. Thank you for sharing. Doris, Penrith 🇦🇺🦘
Insane how much horses trust people
That was an interesting correction. Horses must have a high tolerance of pain from the hoof - or perhaps I was applying human reasoning to an animal.

@peteacher52 The horse was probably sedated a little, so that he didnt feel too much pain when the infected area was worked on. If a horse feels pain by something you did, they are going to let you know. And since they outweigh a human by at least 5x, if they dont like what you are doing to their feet and it hurts, they arent going to stand there peacefully with their foot up.
Looks like you did a great job. I LOVE these videos.
Wow, what a problem and what a great job. I hope we get to see more of this horses progress.
I wonder what his past story was like, hope his knee gets better also
Beautiful work and one happy horse.
How will the vet address the swelling of the knee you pointed out to viewers? What did you do to address the cut on the front of the leg above the hoof? 😮
Beautiful Horse!. hope he gets better!!
That was an amazing shoe you made. Hope this horse heals okay.
Your doing God's work! Thank you for caring for these beautiful animals!
That looked painful. Nice work on the shoe. I hope the horse heals quickly!
Great job on a funky hoof.
poor horsey, this must hurt like a mofo, but also poor student, I hope they're okay, I would die from the guild and buy all the finest horse treats 😂
Ancient craft, perhaps. But you are a master! Wonderful to watch.
I am looking at this video May 22 2024 and I hope the horse hoof healed up properly. Good job.
Лошадь это очень интересное животное. А вам, кузнец, большая благодарность за ваш тяжелый, но очень полезный труд.
