Hey Guys
My name is Alex Ridgeway, I am a Farrier in Newmarket, England. I created this channel to share some of my experiences working with horses. I aim to create entertaining videos as part of my farrier vlog, but I will let you be the judge of that!
I am also producing educational videos about horse's Anatomy, How to’s, and I hope to produce videos all about different pathologies and how to better care for your horse. We have also opened a fully functioning Farriers Forge just outside of Newmarket, England. The plan is to encourage certain horses to the Forge, this will allow us to custom make and create specific shoeing plan to best suit these horses and to maximise their true potential.
Please check out some of my other videos. I hope you enjoy the videos and they can bring you some value.
I would really appreciate you're feedback and if you can offer support by subscribing even better ( it’s completely free!!!) Thank you!!👍
Don't forget to LIKE and SHARE these videos with your friends!
Thank you for watching!

How to shoe a horse!

[@dreadpirateroberts4052]

It’s great idea to remove the leg before shoeing it because you cannot be kicked by the horse- pure genius, whoever thought of it.

[@kevintos9639]

You guys are doing a great job teaching. I really like the details that your teaching you're young apprentices

[@nickb7795]

Love em, do some more videos. Especially forging

[@Harry-ei7os]

Thoes anvils have got a ring to them mate.good video none the less. Cheers

[@AlexRidgewayFarrier]

thanks Harry, yes they sure so but i think the camera make its sound much worse!

[@jessicacarter3515]

Hiya, this is really good work but could I ask a couple of questions as I am considering a farrier apprenticeship. First, how much time do you have for home life? For example are you able to own your own horses as well as work? And also, are there many female farriers that you know or is that quite rare? Thank you!

[@jimbojet8728]

Great. Well done. A tough old job, but I bet the horse appreciates a well done shoe?

[@AlexRidgewayFarrier]

thanks Jimbojet, im sure they appreciate a well trimmed, balanced and shod(if necessary) foot!

[@peterpeersfarrier2819]

Looking good Alex like the new products will you be holding any demos or is it all for apprentices

[@AlexRidgewayFarrier]

Hey Pete, thanks for the feedback buddy. Yes that's the plan, talking to Mark about organising a clinic for sept/oct time. Will keep you posted.

[@peterpeersfarrier2819]

Alex Ridgeway Farrier that's brilliant let me now dates would be really interested it that.

[@dreadpirateroberts4052]

Surely their must be market for reattaching the leg back on the horse?

[@TheDalemma]

My lad is struggling to find anywhere for him to learn any ideas where to start

[@apexiv6919]

How do I sign up?

[@jacquelinecampbell3143]

What age do you accepts apprentices from?

[@marqsman84]

What kind of race horses do you trim

[@AlexRidgewayFarrier]

Hi, we work a lot with thoroughbred race horses, both in training and at stud.

[@marqsman84]
