A good friend of mine is a ferrier, or as he likes to say, "equine podiatrist". There's actually quite a lot to it. They are responsible for shaping the hoof and shoe in a way that corrects problems with the horse's gait. Each shoe is custom made and fitted to the horse, fashioned from a plain bar of steel. It takes years to become truly proficient at the craft. |
