The conversation you’re about to hear occurred at the Focus Convention last year at Stoneleigh at the end of October, it isn’t too late to buy tickets for this year’s Focus Convention, if you do, stop by the Farriers Foundation booth and buy some swag or throw a wet sponge at somebody or whatever activity they have set up this year. As you will hear, it all goes to a very important cause. You will hear me say that there aren’t any organizations like this in North America and that isn’t completely true. The International Association of Professional Farriers has a program set up for their members, where if somebody gets hurt, a group of their members get together and help them take care of the horses on their books. It’s a different program, but it has a similar end result. There may be similar programs throughout North America that I’m not familiar with, and if so, please reach out on social media and let me know about them.

I know in my area, it has always been a very spontaneous thing, but there never seems to be a lack of farriers willing to help each other out, a fact that makes me very proud to be part of this profession. Anyway, this is yet another episode where Danny Bennett and I teamed up to do the interview. As you will hear, these gentlemen are very passionate about their cause and put a lot of work into making it happen. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.
