school. Free dormitory.
In addition, you will learn the skills of the equine
dental technician. You will learn to float teeth and extract wolf
teeth. These are all skills that you can use to improve your
earnings per stop.
Shop tasks have been selected to provide each student
with the skills needed to shoe any horse in any area of the world.
The student will complete handmade shoes using bar stock. The instructors
are qualified to teach you all the forge skills you may need. If you
need to stress a particular type of shoeing for your area, please
bring this to the attention of your instructor.

Blacksmithing Course, your skills, technique and efficiency will be
refined to a level that will give you a competitive edge.

REQUIRED SUPPLIES FOR THE ADVANCED HORSESHOEING
& BLACKSMITHING COURSE: Students must have hand tools,
text book and manual. The required hand tools and text are itemized
in 12-week Required Tools. If
you already have tools of your own you may bring them. If not then
PLEASE buy your tools from us here in our office. The reason we ask
this is that we have found that almost all of the students who buy
their tools elsewhere end up buying the wrong tools to the extent
that they are not even usable, leaving them having to purchase new
tools anyway. We do have economy brand tools as well as the very best
tools, and all are at very competitive prices. You will be given your
course manual when you arrive at school.
The Tool List is in Adobe PDF format. You can obtain the Adobe Reader free of charge at: Adobe.com
