2024 4H Animal Crackers at Cornell

May 29, 2024

It was an honor to be a presenter at this year’s 4H Animal Crackers event. I spoke with about 100 youth about my job as a farrier and made them some handmade shoes while we talked about forging and different types of shoes. What a blessing it was to meet so many bright and eager young people! Thanks to all who attended.

Now scheduling spring appointments! Message us to book or ask questions.  Happy hooves, happy horses!

This sweet old man was born with very unusual conformation and oddly shaped feet, but is sound and happy in his Easycare shoes. I modify them pretty heavily to suit his needs, even adding some extra color to go with his turquoise-themed wardrobe!
