In today’s episode, I'm speaking with Dr. Alan In today’s episode,  I'm speaking with Dr. Alan Manning, MSc DVM. From my early beginnings as a farrier, it was always exciting to run into this gentleman. He is one of those vets who will always work with you on a lameness problem and will never throw you under the bus if things don't go as predicted with the shoeing plan. 

Some of my early mentors warned me about working with vets, but Alan quickly showed me that farriers and vets could work together as a team and that this was to the benefit of everyone, most importantly, the horse.

Dr. Alan Manning is well known in Canada for his expertise in performance horse lameness and rehabilitation, he has been an FEI accredited veterinarian for Canada for over 20 years and has attended the Pan-Am games for the Canadian Dressage team, as well as the World Equestrian Games for the Para-dressage team.

Every time I have had an opportunity to work with this man, he has patiently taught me a great deal. He is however a very hard person to peg down for an interview. It took a snowy day while working on a case with him at his farm and clinic in Orton Ontario, for us to finally have that conversation.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did 🎧🎤

In this episode i talk to Brian Mullins CJF. Brian is the voice behind the Mullins Farriery Podcast, which is one of the main influences that started me thinking about producing my own. Brian is based in Ontario Canada and when I asked him the other week to come on and discuss farriery training and regulation in North America, he kindly agreed. Us Podcasters must stick together eh! As a UK farrier i have often been confused with the different qualifications, associations and entry routes in to farriery out side of the UK. I'll let Brian explain................

Thanks to all the listeners for your continued support and feedback. It is all appreciated.
The podcast is now also uploaded to the YouTube Channel as some people preferer it as a platform. Please don't forget to share, like, comment and subscribe!

In today's episode, I am speaking with Peter Ayran In today's episode, I am speaking with Peter Ayranto CJF. Peter's farrier practice is predominantly West of mine in Southern Ontario. We don't cross paths nearly enough, but we always have great conversations when we do. Peter lives close to the Ontario Veterinary College at the University of Guelph and has been the resident farrier in the large animal clinic for many years. Peter is always thinking, observing, and striving to do better in this craft. All good attributes to have in his role at the university. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did!

In this episode, I am talking with Andrew DeVisser In this episode, I am talking with Andrew DeVisser CJF of  Andrew DeVisser Farrier Service You will be familiar with Andrew's voice as he has been on the podcast before. Through many conversations we've had over the past year, Andrew and I decided that it would be a really good opportunity to sit down and do an episode just on the business of farriery.

Andrew gives a talk on some of the fundamental things that you need to know from the business side of what we do.  I have seen it a couple of times now and I'm still learning each time he does it. It surprised me how little of it I knew or understood until he broke it down and explained it to me.

He has become a bit of a mentor to me, as far as my business and finances and all things money. I think this would be a good opportunity for him to hopefully help some of you out as well. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

In today’s episode I am talking with Mike Mehak In today’s episode I am talking with Mike Mehak CF. Many of you will know Mike from his presence on many of the Farrier Facebook groups including Farrier Q and A. Mike has had a unique journey on his way to becoming a farrier. A lot of the knowledge that he has acquired along the way has become quite useful in his day to day work. Mike resides in Ontario, Canada, and through many years of attending the same clinics and conventions, I have grown to really respect the man for his humble dedication to the craft and the industry as a whole. It was an honour to sit down and hear his story. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Daniel created a new podcast @lockdown_farriers_podcast during this COVID pandemic geared towards continued farrier learning and that is how we connected. Daniel got his start as a farrier in a less direct route than most. His unique upbringing in this trade eventually led him to become an educator. You won’t have to listen very long to understand why he is the ideal person for the job of teacher. Daniel’s passion for the trade and the bettering of those of us in it has caused him to be very resourceful in his methods of helping us. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did!

I can't remember where I first heard of Lori, but I'm guessing it was from one of her biggest fans, who often works with me. After becoming Lori's friend on Facebook, I began to understand where this fandom came from. On a platform where negativity runs rampant Lori's Facebook posts always seem to be full of inspiration and encouragement, and of course her kids. It is there you will also see tons of enviable handmade shoes. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did 🎧

In this episode, I wanted to focus on a cause that In this episode, I wanted to focus on a cause that's very important to me. With all of the sudden and unexpected challenges, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused. One has it very close to home in my province of Ontario, Canada, the plight of the schoolies. I'm sure Schoolie barns are a facet of every country and community the world over. They are those special places where those saints on four legs carried the most nervous of riders around the arena and often eventually around the competition ring. These barns were immediately shut down when the pandemic reached Canada, and their income streams screech to a halt. As we all know, horses are an expense sense of animal to have cared for and feed. So while their doors were closed to their paying clientele, the schooling barns were left with the challenges of feeding and caring for these animals without any money coming in to do so. As I'm sure you've already surmised, the situation for many has become very dire very quickly. Now, it was just announced that the province is lifting some of the restrictions on equine facilities, and this for sure is great news. It is important to remember, however, that these won't mean business as usual for the schooling barns and that they aren't out of the woods yet. has one of my guests will mention, it will be a very long time before things get back to normal, and these businesses and especially equines will still need our help. The purpose of this episode is twofold. Firstly, as advertised over the last few weeks, I've offered a sponsorship of this episode which would go directly To the For The Herd fund. I will continue this offer for the next podcast episode as well, just in case, this one inspires some more goodwill. Second, I wanted to introduce you to some pretty incredible people who are doing big things in an effort to help out these horses.

In this episode, I had the pleasure of talking with @jojosolomon and @k_gerrits of @benchmarkequestriancanada , Jennifer Sweet of @lionsbridge and founder of the original Save The Schoolies initiative and Tracey McCague-McElrea, Executive Director of @onequestrian
