I agree Francisco. Doesn't matter the craft.

That is truly fascinating you're amazing at handling horses but you're also a very good teacher I mean you really demonstrated well and spoke extremely well I love horses I've never had one but boy this is a really special video I'm going to share it on my Facebook

[@ChrisGregory-Farrier-Author]

Thanks a lot Paul. The more shares we get the more it keeps the school running. Sure appreciate you. www.heartlandhorseshoeing.com

[@gingerlebret3770]

In my family when we get a new competition horse we always work with them going down their legs and talking like he is without trying to force the foot up because we want our horses to be a little calmer when they see the farrier so it’s just how my mom raised us. You got to have your horse know you, you have to gain the trust. I can duck down and walk under any one of my horses and they’re not gonna do a thing. But when their new you have to work with them and I know how hard it is to do the job he’s doing so if I can help at all about working with my mare before she sees him all the better

Best thing to do is listen and take all the notes you can cause you all are being taught from the most knowledgeable horse professor I’ve ever seen yet👍🏽👍🏽🤙🏼🤙🏽🤙🏾

Wow! My father in law was a farrier. I've seen it and you gotta be so tough! I have always respected anyone who can work with horses. They're so big and beautiful.

I've cooked professionally for 32yrs... Same way I could NEVER do this, and yet he makes it look relatively easy-- I can male a chef knife move blindingly fast, and don't need to have my eyes open while doing so.😂 Always cool watching a master of their craft. Big respect to those of us who take the time to take the younger/new workers under our wings, and help teach the next generation...👊🏼

@@xa-xii4865but then that opens the gates of possibility to machinery failing and killing your thousands upon thousands of dollars horse. I’d rather pay a human that knows the intricacies of horse soothing to get the job done, than a cold machine that runs on one’s and zeroes. If something breaks or code Fritz’s up, the tough but fragile animal being grabbed by it will be up to lady luck’s temperament.

You know I started gaining interest in these sorta jobs like being a farrier, jobs that are not well known but is very important for specific things. Idk if it's just me tho but I'm really impressed that someone back then had the courage to trim a horse's hooves and eventually put horseshoe on them. Great respect for people like this.
