In the modern world where our horses no longer travel on foot for miles and miles, over rough and uneven ground, their hooves do not wear off. Also better nutrition and care create harder hooves that grow more. If you know how to properly trim a horses hooves, you do not need a farrier, many people do this themselves. However, there are skills involved that need to be taught or learned from experience. Trimming, filing and putting on shoes is not an easy task, there is a lot involved in doing the job the correct way, and the person will need to have advanced horse handling skills in addition to this.
