Blacksmiths use tools like hammers and anvils to forge a shoe that can perfectly fit a horse’s hoof. Farriers take a comprehensive approach to caring for the horse hoof. The perfect horseshoer is a combination of farrier and blacksmith. They know how to make the shoes that will help your horse balance and walk evenly without causing harm to its hooves and how to recognize potential problems that can be taken care of before they develop into significant issues. Depending on where you live, you might find that there are several professional horseshoers listed in your area in the online directory. Knowing what questions to ask them will help you decide which ones can give your horse the care that it needs to lead a longer, healthier life. When you contact the local horseshoers, ask them if they attended any schools to learn how to shoe horses, give them healthy supplements, and recognize hoof diseases and injuries. You will want a professional with several years of experience because they will have the knowledge and supplies and tools to give your horses the balance and cushing that they need. Ask the specialists what materials they make their shoes out of. Typically, iron is used for equines. Ask them if they also have the groomer supplies that they need to make your horse look its best with a shiny, clean coat and mane. Of course, you should also ask them how much they charge for their services so you will know which ones fit into your budget.

Horseshoes are devices placed onto the hooves of horses to protect their hooves from ware and tear. Horseshoes are made by horseshoers and farriers. Most farriers specialize in making steel horseshoes while others may specialize in making aluminum horseshoes; rubber horseshoes; plastic horseshoes; rawhide horseshoes; or laminate horseshoes. Some horseshoers specialize in custom making horseshoes for horses while other horseshoe makers and horseshoe manufacturers may mass produce horseshoes. Some horseshoers may specialize in making decorative horseshoes while others may specialize in making horseshoes that are used in the game of horseshoes. Some horseshoe shops and farrier shops may also be able to put horseshoes onto horses and be able to remove old horseshoes from horses' hooves.
