- Bit of a long one today, refitting shoes on a couple of retired mounted games ponies, there are three but I had already done the old boy CoCo before I started filming. In this one there is a guest appearance from my wife Rachel.
Filmed with GoPro Hero5 black Camcorder amzn.to/2OrEuTs
PLEASE READ THE FAQ's BEFORE POSTING!!
1: Hot shoeing ensures a good fit.
2: No, it doesn't hurt the horse if it's shod correctly by a qualified registered person.
3: The horse is calm because it has been trained from birth to know there is nothing to fear.
4: The majority of horses these days are worked either under saddle or in harness and on hard man made surfaces, shoes protect the feet from wearing down too much and can add grip via studs in the shoes for competition animals.
5: Feral horses have particularly hard feet and manage them naturally by foraging, if they get sick they recover or die, it’s nature.
6: The average horse needs re-shoeing every 6-8 weeks
7: The bit I am nailing to has no nerves and is made of Keratin, the same as your finger nails and hair.
8: The burning smells just like burning hair. #GaryHuston #Blacksmithing #Farrier #ASMR #Horseshoeing #Fabrication #Ironwork #Hoofcare #welder #repairs #horse #farriery #engineering
This was always my favorite part in any horse game I played. I got super excited when the ferrier came to my aunts horse farm while I was there for a visit. It’s so satisfying. 😂 I love how the dog is like, I wanna help.
Gary, your tools are always in good condition, sharp, efficient. Your attention to detail and care is apparent in your work. Thank you for producing these videos. I always look forward to the next one.
Wow, you're fast. Thank you for the detail. When I get my horse(s), I'll need someone like you.
Gary , I have a question unrelated to this video. I watch your videos and really enjoy them. I have watched some other farriers showing their work. Some of them use power tools. What is your opinion about that ?
It’s not something I would ever consider
@@garyhuston can you elaborate ? Is it a quality issue ?
@@kevinjasper6620 No, I just wouldn't use power tools.
enjoy the video's , awsome, what kind of rasp do you use." brand name. " . i am a farrier in u.s. ,i went to heartland horseshoeing school, class of 1999, i do enjoy the video's, thank you sir.

BRAVO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BEAUTY TRUCK .
how many horses do you shoe on a regular day?
Not many now as an old git! I used to do 6-8 a day but now only two or three.
I have watched your shoeing videos for quite sometime just noticed the screen flipping today. How is that achieved?
cut the scene into relevant parts then just rotate the ones you want 180 degrees
@@garyhuston But it looks continuous. That's great.
Why does the pony get front shoes but not rear?
Because they are old retired games ponies who do very little now. Their front feet carry 60% of the horses weight so suffer more without shoes.
Ralphie....Ralphie......RALPH!
Love these videos even tho I don't like shoeing horses
What do you do with the old horse shoes that are really worn down?
Shellz throw them away!
Why do you put the horeshoe on while its still burning hot
So I can see where it fits and where it doesn't, it also seals the foot against infections.
🤔👍🙇♂️👍
Tq... I see now...
I don't know why I find these videos so relaxing. I haven't ever owned or rode horses but I love watching them get shoed?
Same!!!!!!!
Came for the horses, stay for the dog 😂
I love horseshoeing videos~ they're soooo satifaying
Yet another good job. How many horses do you think you've put shoes on?
thousands in the last forty years!
Couple well behaved horses. I would take 100 of them.
That is some back breaking work! Kudos to you for doing this job and for doing it so long!
Do you shoe a horses back hooves? Also how come you hammer the top? Is it to loosen the nails? Love your videos!!
Gary, I love watching your videos. You have such a lovely way with animals... all animals.
Is that your dog? Does he come to work with you?
Yes
I'm pretty sure his name's ralph, adorable, right?
If a farrier wants to put shoes on a horse with white line separation is it a good sign that they I shouldn't let them work on my horses feet?
I don’t understand the question
I think they are asking if its bad to let a farrier shoe a horse with laminitis.
do you put on horseshoe to younger horses?
Yes, usually start at about three.
I have 2 questions Gary. 1) Do you work on draft horses ? 2) Occasionally , I see you nip something off the horses leg... I figure it's a growth of some kind. What is it exactly and what cause it to be there ?
No I don’t. It’s called a chestnut, it’s a vestigial digit. Some horses have them some don’t.
Do you make your own hoof knives?
Yes, some of them, have you not watched the video?
@@garyhuston I haven't, I'll look them up and watch them.
i was looking at your clinchers, what brand name do you prefer. they look like they make nice clinches . thanks for the videos.
I don't do brand names, I use ones that do the job at a reasonable price. brand names are so expensive just for the name! I don't recall the make of these im using but i do remember they were £135.00
Hey Gary, how has Ralph been? :)
I was wondering I never see you pulling clips, do you buy your shoes clipped? Are they kirkhart Rim shoes?
I buy them ready clipped. No they aren’t.
Gary, you are such a kind hearted man. I love watching you interacting with horses and dogs, too :)
Apparently I made a similiar comment almost a year ago, lol.
How often do you reuse shoes? Your older videos always seem to have you using new shoes and now your newer videos have you reusing shoes. Does it have to do with the client wanting new shoes for the horses? Does it matter if they are new or old?
Sorry for the million questions. Just really curious about the whole process lol
The older retired horses tend to use them more than once because they don’t wear them out. More active horses need new because they are worn out
@@garyhuston thanks!
I’m a professional horse trainer and you need to be more careful about the hoof of the horse or the horses hoof will get infected thank you
What the hell are you talking about?
Gary Huston LMAOO
Paige Meadows where did you get your education? The Walmart school for professional horse trainers
Lmao, a "professional" trainer would atleast know the basic anatomy of a horse.
