S. H. S. is the place to begin.
General Information ...
O.S.H.S.is equipped to accommodate twenty-two students, with three or more
instructors, giving each student more than enough personal attention for the best
education he or she could receive in the horseshoeing field.
We teach step by step basic horseshoeing, as well as corrective shoeing, because a student
must know how to do a good, basic job, using the forge for assistance, before he can
expect to do veterinary type and corrective horseshoeing.
Students shoeing
With an abundance of horses to work on, video tapes on corrective shoeing and anatomy, and
outside consultants on specific problems, the student will be fully prepared to become a
respected, professional farrier.
During your first two days at O.S.H.S., you will see several demonstrations of
horseshoeing, do forge work, and watch training videos. Wednesday and Thursday each
student will trim feet and nail on shoes, two or three more instructors will be helping
during this time, so you will not do anything to a horse without someone there to watch
and give instruction. We also have left-handed instructors to help left-handed students. |
