As ever, we cover a lot in this episode, where I interviewed Valentin during a clinic we had near Seville in Spain. We talk about shoeing in both dry and wet climates, as well as farrier schools, qualifications, associations, federations… and more!

75 - Auli Mantila in Uusimaa, Finland
Auli Mantila started her hoof-care career a bit later than most do, and her commutes to farrier school actually inspired her to create something in her other profession - which is a very unusual one for a farrier! I won’t spoil it, listen to the podcast to find out what it is.
We also discuss Finn horses, and shoeing in sub zero temperatures, with horses that can have frozen hooves and an inch of snow on them, plus many other interesting parts of being a farrier in Finland.

73 - Sam Durham in Petaluma, USA
I was happy to finally sit down with Sam Durham for a podcast interview, having the opportunity last year at a clinic we organised in California with the Farrier Center and Pacific Coast Horseshoeing School. We cover a lot in this episode, from farm life to running multi-farrier practices, AFA examinations and conventions, and much more.

Customer Reviews
Not what I was looking for
This podcast appears to be a compilation of life experiences of different farriers, which in of itself is fine, but was not what i was looking for. I was exited for episode 2 hoping it would go into details about the hoof and hoof care instead was details on how he wrote the book not about the stuff inside it. Good for what it is and I’ll maybe enjoy it once I become a farrier but for starting out it’s not what I need.
