Goddamn your forearms are ripped

[@richardpowell1772]

That dog loves him some frog.

[@richardpowell1772]

In a lot of these videos, I see people cutting some of the frog off and letting the dog eat it. It must taste good.

[@69Phuket]

Dogs love the stuff...I can't remember what it's called but it's obviously tasty! Ralph is a natural!

[@69Phuket]

Frog! Guy was right...God knows why it's called that! Unless i got transferred to a new reality...I'm concerned now! ;( It wasn't Frog!

[@jenniferlopez8495]

@@69Phuket its a treat for dogs

[@lillycheek322]

69Phuket The reason it is called a frog is because it looks like a frog😂😂😂 you look at it really closely

[@pamelaking8114]

Ralph is obviously a true gentleman.

[@Meggy_Callas_]

Why do you burn the foot? Is it to Mark if its straight?

[@Tacoplug.]

Hot shoeing also creates an antiseptic environment by burning away any impurities on the outside of the hoof before you nail the shoe on. You are not trapping any of the bacteria and fungus that is naturally found around horse into the hoof

[@cleanchik88]

How does one go about becoming a farrier? Is there a school to attend, internship, something? This is fascinating to me and I would love to learn more about it

[@garyhuston]

Yes, there is a farriery school. It depends what country you are in but here it’s compulsory if you want to shoe horses. It’s a four year course and you have to have a master that you train under. In other countries it’s not compulsory but highly advised if you want to do it for a living, it’s so easy to get it wrong if you don’t know what you are doing!

[@seanlosee7352]

It’s crazy how I can spend all day shoeing, and still sit down and watch someone else shoe for a bit. I really like your magnet system to hold the old shoes for shaping comparison. Also, is that a GH brand on your forearm?

[@Shadeskast]

Me too Sean. So crazy

[@garyhuston]

Yes, it’s a brand, there is a video somewhere of me making it!

[@Shadeskast]

You branded your arm, you crazy Brit. I thought I was tough. You must of dropped it when you were forging it.

[@richw5018]

Hi Gary: Another excellent vid. Thanks. Just wondering.....have you ever thought about using a stall jack for making minor shoe changes at the horse? Cheers.

[@garyhuston]

I always use one when cold shoeing but never when hot shoeing.

[@cagriozkan1936]

You are a good boy!

[@bighurk30able]

Good job buddy

[@anthonymeadows4077]

How many horses do you have that you do regularly? Trimming and shoeing?

[@marcosmota1094]

Four people don’t like to blow their noses, clean their ears, wipe out their belly buttons, or cut their finger nails.

[@soop8665]

Marcos Mota what?

[@elliotmarris]

good vid mate , just a quick question did you make your foot stand or buy it if so what make . cheers

[@garyhuston]

I made it from some scrap stainless tube I had. It's really lightweight.

[@AlchemyForge]

Gary - What camera and filter are you using to get the forging colours looking right please! Thanks.

[@garyhuston]

Steve Winser not sure which videos you are talking about but for most of my shoeing videos I just use a GoPro with no filter. For my blacksmithing videos I still haven’t got that right. At the moment I use a canon HFS200 with an ir filter, still doesn’t look right but not bad.

[@AlchemyForge]

@@garyhuston Thanks Gary I remember a while ago you commenting about a filter to get the colours just wondering what I might need so the metal doesn't look hotter than it is... S

[@hasimp7842]

Cool

[@maidavale545]

Is it painful? great video !

[@itsxavier395]

No, it's pretty much a super thick toe nail so as long as he doesn't get through to the meat, he'll be fine

[@soop8665]

maidavale545 yea if you’re bad it can be very harmful to the horses, but this guy has been doing it for 40 years and he’s really good so no it doesn’t hirt

[@okaygrace__1981]

Am i the only one practicing to become a ferrier and tries to predict his each and every move before he does it?

[@garyhuston]

Why?

[@gtar5191]

The horse? Or Garys? I’m worried about Gary’s wrists .And him being pain free.

[@mochiiattoo]

@@garyhuston I think is because if the posture you make when horseshoeing

[@johnhartley3596]

Where’d you learn your trades?

[@liltray3683]

For how long have you've been horse shoeing?

[@garyhuston]

40 years

[@soop8665]

Gary Huston damn, you’re really good

[@kevinjasper6620]

I imagine allot has changed in 40 years in the area of rules and regulations. Has much changed as to the actual work , tools and how is done ? The small portable gas furnace probably was not around 40 years ago

[@garyhuston]

Yes, lots of things have changed, lots of Farriers are now making and selling their own tools, none are particularly better than others you just pay extortionate prices for their name! Obviously technology has pushed the boundaries and some innovative people have come up with some great new ways to look at the whole shoeing process, thinking more about 5he whole horse rather than just the leg and foot. The forges have been around a while, but when I was a boy some Farriers has a coal forge in their vans!

[@Eve-hb]

Is the dog the same dog from the other video

[@garyhuston]

Which other video? This is Ralph, I have only had him a year.

[@garyhuston]

You need to find a farriery school in your country or go to a country that has one. You need to know what you are doing to avoid hurting the horse.

[@samanthasherwood9206]

If u don’t mind me asking what qualifications do u need to be a farrier as I want to be one when I leave school

[@garyhuston]

I’m not sure these days, in my day you didn’t need any, just a willingness to learn! If you are in the uk go to the farriers registration council website as there should be all the information you need there. If you are in another country you need to find your farriers governing body and ask .

[@brimstonethewolf2020]

You are very good at what you do. I tried horseshoeing once, and for some reason I had the hardest time getting the shoe to line up with the hoof. Good job!

[@brookebarbato3838]

has anyone else ever thought of, while they love it, that feeding dogs the trimmings of the hoof or frog is dangerous..? like actual horse manure, and other possible diseases or maybe any recent medications could be in the manure that is most likely on the clippings? idk, just a thought..

[@jenniferlopez8495]

Its not, its a piece of treat for the dogs

[@ashleynoll6082]

I wouldn't think so, but seeing how its common practice at most barns it seems fine

There is a little bit of the wolf still in dogs. Their digestive system can handle it.
