Take A Few Minutes To Recognize An Outstanding Young Farrier

The American Farriers Journal staff is seeking nominations for its seventh annual Rising Shoeing Star program. This continuing education recognition program honors fairly new farriers that have made outstanding progress during their first 3 years in the footcare field.

This recognition program honors three outstanding farriers who graduated from a North American farrier school in 2012 and have spent the past 3 years developing their career in the hoof-care profession.
