Lisa Buckley

Lisa Buckley is one of the most amazing ladies I've been blessed to meet. She's a full-time farrier from the Cheyenne, Wy., area. As of now, I'm in the process of learning this wonderful trade and will hopefully take her spot when she feels she's had enough. I've been apprenticing her for about a year and half, and I feel so lucky to learn the trade from — in my opinion — only the best. She's taught me everything from the trade to life lessons. Her enthusiastic attitude towards this trade is what really caught my attention. She can turn a horse that’s in pain back to the loving amazing animal it once was.
This is a tough business where the fittest survive, and she's survived for a long time. So I want to get her name out there for this tribute and thank her for all she's done for me. And this is an inside joke we have, "I'm not a draft horse farrier!" lol Thank you Lisa, for the amazing lessons, memories, and for keeping my attention and explaining the things I may not understand in a way I do! God bless you!
