Since she brought it up I have to say that the Bible doesn’t teach a works based Salvation…It teaches that Jesus’ sacrifice alone was enough to pay for the sins of the world and each of us must accept that gift in order to receive it. Repentance is necessary too but that is part of belief…when you truly see your sin and how it stands between you and a Holy God then you make a decision to turn from it. You will screw up and at times go back to sin but you do not stay in that state…when you truly trust in Jesus then the Holy Spirit resides within you from then on. Any good works we do are an effect of knowing God more and learning to be more like Him. We will never be perfect on this earth and that’s why we need Jesus’ sacrifice. I hope that clarified something for anyone reading and I’m sorry there are so many out there misrepresenting Jesus. Just remember that we are only people. If we harm or offend you, please don’t blame that on Jesus. And please go read His own Words and call out to Him for His wisdom and understanding and trust that you will receive that from Him.

Look at that sweet baby! That horse is so comfortable with the farrier. Perked ears, sweet, curious eyes. Happy and patient! 💕

Horses quickly get used to having their hooves attended to if treated well from the beginning. They can get impatient and a bit uncomfortable at times but a good farrier will never hurt a horse.

You sir are quite the craftsman. The shoe fits perfectly, the hoof is level, the nails all come out at the same distance, and the horse despite not having a trim in a while stayed calm and didn't fuss while you worked.

As somebody who’s only ever seen a horse stable twice in his life, much less a whole ass ranch, it is definitely alarming at first to see you nail glowing hot metal to the foot of an animal like that. But the fact that the horse didn’t even flinch made me look it up and realize how hooves are/why shoes are still made that way… makes perfect sense, but still absolutely wild to see. My feet sure as hell wouldn’t stand up to an iron shoe straight outta the forge lol

You know, I've always wondering why anvils look like that. I get it now! Really neat to see how you use those angles to get the right shape of the shoe.

Man, you do wonderful work! You could see the appreciation on the horse’s face! Thank you Sir.

That was impressive to watch. The trimming of the hoof, then taking a straight piece of metal and creating the exact shoe for the horse’s needs. You have a new subscriber, I look forward to seeing more!!!

my brain still can't comprehend how a searing piece of metal doesn't hurt the horse. obviously it doesn't or the horse wouldn't have let you do it, but that's crazy to me! thank you for teaching me something new 😀

The part of the hoof that gets touched by the hot metal is the same material as your fingernails. As long as the heat doesn't touch the quick, it doesn't hurt at all.

Its the same stuff as your nails or hairs. It doesnt hurt to cut your nails/hairs. Nor does it to burn it. Obviously, if you put an iron on your finguernail itll hurt since your finguernails are very tin and the heat will transfer on the skin below, but the horse hooves are very thick, so the heat doesnt make it. Its the same way as wheb you iron your hairs to straighten them if you have long hairs. The temperature is well able to completely burn your flesh, but you dont feel it since your hairs are far from your head skin If the process was in any way painful or even just too inconvenient for the horse, the horse would have reacted by pulling back its leg, moving or something, which it did not do

Wow I never knew how much work went into shoeing a horse. Absolutely amazing.

That is truly incredible, impressive, highly skilled work. I am so grateful there are people like this farrier who love and care for these beautiful creatures.

Never ceases to amaze me how trusting and patient horses can be when people are dealing with them.

I always wondered how people actually attached the shoes and seeing you nail straight into the hoof without hesitation gave me such a visceral reaction. I know it Dosent hurt the horse, but it’s so weird to see it’s just an uncomfy feeling. Still glad his feet are okay

I'm impressed. I have never understood how a skill of a blacksmith horseshoes or when the origin of a horse needed the horseshoe with the horse's relaxed animal sense to be shoed. I especially am fascinated how the years of a needed skill for an animal will never be different through the decades past...thank you!

There’s something so friggin manly about this whole process. Great to see a master at work

A true master craftsman. You make it look so easy, as anyone at the upper echelons of their chosen field often does. A knowledge slowly gained over many, many years I'm sure. Thank you for the work that you do for the horses and for sharing your craft with the world, made my day.

Horses are surprisingly calm considering the shoeing process. I was a farrier for 20 years in the UK and I'd say 80% of the horses I shod stood as well as this one. The most likely ones to be difficult are young horses, but if handled properly from the beginning they're fine

My grandfather was a ferrier, and he made all shoes for different horses. I remember it still even I was a little child back then. Later on he used pre-made ones

Gives literal meaning when you say "Hey man, nice kicks!" Beautiful work for a magnificent beast! I never road a horse nor work with its maintenance, but I know, before I die, I will own and ride one...

For the people wondering a Farrier will have several pre cast shoes in various sizes they will select the closest size to the horse they are working with and re shape it normally in this case they made them from blank as this was a working horse am guessing ? The lip at the front is to reduce slip and help stop the horse going lame and or throwing a shoe 😁👌
