FARRIER VS THE UNTRAINED HORSES

Farriers want to help your horses. Every day they are doing a risky job trimming horse feet. The job becomes even more dangerous when they’re dealing with an untrained horse. The chance of injury increases significantly with untrained/unhandled horses. 

This message is more for the owners. Please train your horses! Handle them and their feet often. If you’re not sure what to do, hire a trainer. When you contact a farrier, please mention if your horse behaves well or not. By doing so, you’ll prevent many problems, injuries and even death.
