~ What is your Goal?
~ What is it you want to do with your Career?
~ How do you see yourself in a professional role?
~ Do you want to be just a “shoer” or a problem-solver in service of the horse?
“Pretty shoeing takes impressive skill no doubt, and is something to be proud of, but effective problem-solving takes brains, knowledge and the ability and hard-earned skills to bring your knowledge into a reality that actually benefits the horse.”
~Tim Rogers, DVM
According to the United States Department of Agriculture, the demand for qualified professional farriers is expected to grow 35-40% over the next few years. Fact is, there is plenty of work out there.
The farrier trade is one of the fastest growing in the United States.
If Graduates will show up on time, return phone calls promptly, and learn to communicate to the horse owners why they are shoeing or trimming the horse the way they are, most will have all the business they ever want.
