For the 15th year, we are promoting National Farriers Week. The year, the week falls July 7 to 13. From now until July 1, we encourage horse owners, trainers, riders, grooms, veterinarians and others in the equine community to submit pictures and videos of their farriers at work with horses and to share their appreciation for those efforts. We will publish these on our website.

In most cases, the financial stability of a hoof-care practice is up to the farrier.

A Facebook post serves as a reminder of how critical client education is.
