Dusty Franklin (Minco, Okla.)
Dusty Franklin, CFJ, positively touches so many aspects of the industry. He does this not only through all of his tireless work in the AFA, educating and motivating through countless clinics, but he inspires and mentors the students that come to his school. You never truly leave his school and are welcomed into a second home and family. He is a resounding voice striving for the better of our industry.
— Danny Lawton (Mercer Island, Wash.)
Tom Trosin and Dusty Franklin have been super supportive of me and a pile of other young, budding farriers. They help build confidence, teach skills and provide knowledge I will be able to not only profit from, but pass down to future generations.
