A farrier is a man who attends to and doctors?

Answer 1

A farrier is a person who trims horses feet and shoes horses.

They can also be used for overgrown pig feet and goat feet. The exterior of these special high maintenance feet is called hooves.

A farrier is a person who changes a horses horse shoes. In colonial times, the farrier would melt iron, and then fit it to the horses hoof after he had trimmed the hoof. Then he would let the metal cool and nail the horse shoe onto the horses hoof. The nailing didn't hurt the horse because they have no nerves in the area where the farrier nails the horseshoe in. However, the tender inside of the horses hoof including the frog, (which is a part of the horse's hoof) are very sensitive.

If you did farrier work, you probably could make your own business and become a professional journeyman farrier. You could attend classes to become certified at a place like the American Farrier Association or the B.W.F.A.

Answer 3
