It's always a rough day when the table comes out. Two horses, 3 quarter cracks.
If you have a horse that's struggling with quarter cracks or white line disease, we can help.

This!! So many "trainers" forget to train the horse to stand for the farrier. Then owners want the farrier to be calm and not be mean and be patient and actually train the horse for them. For free. Younger farriers, and I think the older fairies will back me up on this, you will get old one day. And the more you have to fight and get hurt when you're younger the more it hurts when you get older. Time to change the industry.

This took me less than 20 minutes to make. It wouldn't have taken that long except, I took three welding heats. Several of the greats seem to think that's the thing to do. If it works for them, it works for me.
The horse loved it.

When your son asks you to do career day at school, you do it! Took the morning off to attend elementary school and show what a farrier does. Rest assured, I will not be hanging up my apron to go teach small children on a regular basis but their enthusiasm for learning was great!

I just stopped by McDonald's General Store and bought 12 cases of water to donate to this effort. I just got off the phone with a friend that is helping. He said it best. He did not realize how bad it was until he tried to go help. Y'all, it's way worse than what you can imagine. I still need a utility helicopter with a large payload to go to a farm in Black mountain. There's roughly 50 people and 24 horses in that area that need an airdrop. They need hay, fencing supplies, food and water. I'll give all that I can. But we need help buying some of the supplies for them. But the main thing is the helicopter. Yes I've been saying this all day on the internet. Someone has to have a utility helicopter that can fly to Black Mountain
