- Today I will be shoeing a nervous horse called Chief.
Chief and I have been working together for a decade now and whilst he has improved he still doesn't look forward to me visiting.

Thank you 🙏
I had to sit and think about why the world was so obsessed with these videos. Then it came to me. We are a technological based word now, and everything is manufactured. The art of a tradesmen who has mastered their craft is not something seen very often anymore. It looks and feels so different from the way most people live their lives.
Plus its somethings most people would never get to see otherwise. Really cool!
This work is so important. Absolutely critical to maintaining a sound and healthy horse. So satisfying to watch. Thank you!
So handsome - chief isn’t bad either 🐴
🤣🤣🤣
I love how you move with him when he pulls away. Its like a dance, and your calm demeanor and total confidence... ALONG with your utmost respect for these BIG animals ....just loved this video. Keep em coming!!
It is a real pleasure to see you doing your own kind of magic with these horses. Your calmness and understanding with them even has a soothing effect on me.
Looking very much forward to the next video.
Thank you🙏🏽❤️
I’ve been waiting to see a horse that is not totally chill with the process. Fascinating to watch you work with Chief. He’s beautiful and you obviously take good care of his hooves! ❤❤
Horses are not all so straight forward😂, it’s important to make the experience as pleasant as possible, horses will always remember when you are good to them. Thank you 😊
You are super patient…which makes perfect sense when dealing with a ‘client’ who is nervy. I’d imagine you have a decent rapport with him after shoeing him for 10 years. Thanks Sam this was really a great lesson on managing your energy and doing a great job shoeing Chief. Though mind he is a beautiful horse…so maybe he’s allowed to be a bit of a drama queen!😄
Sam, you really are very calm. The horses are very lucky to have you as their farrier.😊
Nice control so sweet and calm while working with Chief and trying to show us how to work on a horses hoof.
“ give a little stroke , introduce yourself , be polite before i go down and grab the leg “
I mean come on 😂😂
now there's a young lady that knows how to grab sams attention
@Starjules2212 do you think that was intentional?
The side eye on Chief 😂
He’s says it all with his eyes 😂
Serious side eye. Chief is saying " you're lucky we go way back otherwise forget it"
Chief is a beautiful horse, but I think Reggie is still my favorite so far. Your voice is so calming and you really do everything that you can to make your clients comfortable throughout the shoeing. Just another testament to how good you are at your job and that you actually care for your clients and their comfort. ❤
Thank you ❤
The whole process is mesmerising to watch and you are so calm and nurturing with your horses.
Wonderful job ....so nice to see full-length videos now on the Tube .... thank you so much, and keep well !!
I think this is the most "antsy" horse I've seen you work on, but well done keeping him calm so you could get the job done 👍
Horses are very sensitive, they can feel a horsefly land on their back, they can sense a humans demeanor very easily, they weigh about 1500 pounds ... they are gentle giants. A good farrier sees these horses about every 6 weeks ... you might as well be kind ... Otherwise you may not get anywhere! 😊
I love the patience you have, everyone needs a farrier like you!
Chiefs owner needs to do some serious groundwork to make your life easier😳🥴 wish every farrier was like you. Patience of a friggin saint!! My 1.5 year old was untouched when I bought him and was a nightmare feet wise but now he’s a great boy - GROUNDWORK GUYS MAKE YOUR FARRIERS LIFE EASIER😩
Ground work doesn't fix all equine ills. This horse needs to be assessed by a clinical behaviourist to understand why he is performing these avoidance behaviours. The horse is worried by something or he is in pain or discomfort. I suspect that, if the cause is found out and rectified for the horse, this wonderful and sensitive handling by the farrier will be all the 'training' he needs to stand calmly whilst behind trimmed and shod.
He’s a beautiful brat… you handle him very well! Bravo!
😂😂 thank you and thanks for watching!
I think Chief has picked up on your calming energy, you have a good aura about you. Best wishes from South Africa
A lot of horses are fine to pick up their feet for their owners but it’s quite different to a farrier doing it, can take a while to get them used to the grip and the length of time they need to keep their feet up. All credit to this guy he is sooo patient and kind with this horse, fantastic to see a farrier with such a great attitude
Thank you for sharing these fantastic videos. You’ve completely demystified this process and it’s wonderful to watch a pro like you in action! Thank you! 😊
I agree, animals feel our energy before anything else. Thank you for sharing your work with us. Sending love and light from Hawai’i. 🙏🏼💜❤️🩷💙
Thank you ❤️
We love your person and your love and compassion and understanding of these beautiful animals. Truly something special you have and we love you for your love 💘
Chief is so handsome and he has come a long way,the farrier is experienced and knows his job well,he is so calm and quiet and gentle handling chief,he is a good boy
Love watching you do your craft. You can see how much you love your work. 😊
You are wonderful with them. Thank you for sharing!
A bit like going to the dentist! Taking hold of horses' feet is taking away their ability to flee, so to see your calm and kindness with this lovely section D (what a handsome horse!) and his reassurance is wonderful. The picture and feel of you in his mind is good - he just doesn't like the process, but you've left him with an unstressful experience for next time.
A Northern man. No wonder I was interested, along with other reasons. Both my grandfather and father were horse whisperers. They could do anything with horses, including shoeing and blacksmithing. I didn't get to see them working, so I love seeing how its done. As my ancestors were from Lancashire, I get to hear an accent that must be in my genetic memory. I always enjoy watching a craftsman at work. The horses are a bonus. From Australia. Thanks, YT algorithm.
Chief seems to have sensitive feet and you are able to recognize that. You really are a horse whisperer😘
I have a mare that hated the nailing. My farrier is much like you in that he won't fight with them. I also like the way you first talk to them before you grab a leg. It really makes a difference.
Man, probably my dream job! Working w/ horses and other animals are far better than working w/ my senile and gossipy workmates in the office! Man, I wish I can work a job like yours - serene, fulfilling and peace & QUIET!
Just found you and love your work and approach. I have 2ottb rescues and we have 8 other rescues of various sizes and ages. The art of what you do is sooo much from just shoeing. I have done a lot of work with ours on trust and ground work to enable shoeing in particular. It has taken us 5 different farriers and ours who is almost your twin work wise. I have 1 who is very sooky and so gentle and stands great. I had one farriers who took after him for swishing his tail at a fly... Mind U we live in Australia and it's summer. He recoiled so hard I've never seen him have a response like that. Our last ottb was on deaths door. I got her and our farrier Chris Lee saw her the next day. As we got her picked up we were told she would need to be sedated to be trimmed. Chris had as much on as this great guy. One of her back legs looked like it had almost been degloved at one point. When he did her backs he could see an attempt had been made to do them but could see evidence where she had most likely been hit with the rasp multiple times. He also knew previous owners and said he had expected worse. She loves him they all do. We have a 45yo mini with laminitis that is now galloping with the rest as he had to do so much rehab on her feet. U guys are amazing and so thankful there are farriers around like U guys
My horse loves Farriers. He kisses their backs and tucks his head under their arms to cuddle them, then falls asleep while they're working on him.
Handsome man, beautiful horse, amazing accent, what a perfect video!
You are a true professional. Thank you for starting on RUclips
Congratulations on your work, and Equine Psychology as well. I have seen a lot of different farriers working on Grandpa’s Percherons, and Dad’s riding and race horses. You are the only person who addresses the horse on a personal basis before the work starts. You are a rare farrier who has come to realize that in any show of strength, the human will lose. It takes longer, but you go home tired, but not bloodied, or broken.
On to other subjects. Was the female laughter coming from the pretty boy’s owner? What, no dog to grab the trimmings?
I love watching you. And how calm you are. The horses love you.
It’s so nice to see a horse that is a struggle to do! My dad was a farrier for 40 years retired now and I only do my own horses but I have one that is a foot puller like chief, I’m glad I’m not the only one having to one hand a horse it’s a struggle lol ❤🐎
Well handled sam that is how nervous should be treated not hitting them or sticking boot in we have had to many horses coming to us to be shod that has been beat up by previous farrier
Stellar work bro..nothin quite like competence.❤👍
Love your videos !!!! And yes, great patience and love is needed for horses. ❤
They are so smart that they understand people! You manage to come to an agreement with them, despite the fact that they also have different characters. 😊
I obvs started following for nefarious reason....just being truthful, but now, I'm obsessed!! I find the whole process fascinating and calming and I love how you interact with the horses. Much respect.
Thought I’d only be watching a couple of mins of this on my way out rushing for an appointment…….nearly 13mins later and definitely late I watched the whole video 🫣 Absolutely amazing and so insightful. I live in Ascot near the racecourse but will be too busy looking at their shoes rather than them race 😂
Really beautiful to see how good you are to these amazing animals
Love from Portugal 🇵🇹
Oh he sassy. You kept the situation so calm.
Really enjoyed this video. You are very kind & caring.❤❤❤ Thank you😊
@@suellenspencer-eb2nv ❤️
I was proper stressing for you during this especially when he turned his back end towards you. It’s great to watch how comfortable you are around these huge horses.❤ xxx
Great job your work is superb and you have a lovely way with horses 👍
0:20 He's got his eye on you 😂
Wow! That was incredible. I think the positive reinforcement saved ya!😂Another great video!
Chief is gorgeous. He ❤ you really.
You are so good with him, they certainly pick upon your mood . Have you ever had any that you just can't shoe ❤
Love watching you and the horsies...❤❤
What a beautifull job !!
Thank you x
Wow! You are fast and detail oriented. It’s amazing to watch tiny work! Well done!
Chief is me at the dentist…
😂😂
You are so caring I've had horses all my life and your one of the best I've seen 💞
Amazing and compassionate work! Love your videos! ❤
Once you have experienced a horse like that any other horse is gravy :). I know my last horse was the same when I first bought him. Took two yrs before he started to relax a little and let me work without snatching his foot away. it was really nerve wrecking at first. I just knew i would get a nail in my leg or he was going to step on me eventually.
What an interesting video! You are terrific with these majestic animals! 🙌🙌🙌
Love how you introduce yourself 😂😂 very polite and I bet it would work on humans too 🤔😉😅
Good work, he’s clearly a bit of a scaredy horse so to win his trust to be able to do that is a credit to you. He seems very sensitive to sounds- he hates the rattling noise when you move your tool box.
You are like a horse whisperer.. you know what the other is thinking. So cool to see. Who taught you Samuel? Is it a family trade?
Mesmerising 😊 Thanks for sharing!
That horse is magnificent.
Thank you 🌹
Like watching cause you're both very handsome 😊
Do they work him before he is shod ?
He sure has some condition on him ...which is a lot of energy in that body.
Lovely looking horse.
Great job and so much knowledge and patience, love it!
How long did it take to shoe Chief? 2 hours at least?
Liked and subscribed
That was lovely to watch. Your patience and skill ❤
Thanks so much 😊
Maybe once upon a time, when he was younger he had a bad farrier that made him sore, so he dreads it now?
He prefers back scratches to shoes. 😂
I bet with someone not as sweet as you, the horses would really hate having this done.
Poor Chief. He is clearly not having it today and barely tolerating it. Luckily, you're moving fast to get it done. He is a really handsome.horse though.
He's one very beautiful horse, i find thiscso interesting ❤❤
I’m loving the longer format videos! What do you use to sharpen your knives?
Uh oh…Chief has airplane ears ❤
Hope Chief got his treat!
You've got some patience well done. You should wear your glasses my father lose an eye due to a piece of metal going in his eye.
I have a good friend here in Chile who is an equestrian vet and she was pregnancy testing a mare and it kicked her in the face. It was a 3 year recovery for her. 3 months in the hospital, metal plates in her face. It was terrible for her. So ya it can be dangerous for sure. Jim in Chile
Lovely job !
Owner needs to help get this horse under control. This is this man’s livelihood time is money and he probably has other clients booked ! he shouldn’t have to lose money because you can’t train your horse to stand for the farrier! Time is money this is his livelihood respect that.
Agree! I see it all the time in dogs. Can’t behave for a groomer or a vet. Instead of teaching the dog how to act, they just sedate it. So insane.
Have you tried a lickit someone hold it distract while u work ....bless him hes lush ❤
Loved this video 😊
Great video !
Horse nibbles!Loves you ❤
hey I seen a friend of mine puts duct tape on top of the horses nose and one on it's bottom lip and her thinks about getting it off and the Ferrier is bothering to it. Make sure the tape has about a 3" overhang
You are a very patient man. Lucky Chief, eh? Do you charge the same rat as for four well-behaved horses? That guy is beautiful, but he is also a handful.
Love the video
maybe a weird question. I have a horse that has thin soles and is therefore sensitive when shoeing, among other things. Is there anything that I, as the owner, can do to help the horse?
Great video! Chief is a stunning Welshie. Which hoof moisturiser do you recommend please?
Que cariñoso. ❤😊
@swfarriers can you make a video showing how you make the shoe to fit
Chief is a wee bit spicy 😆. He’s quite beautiful though. I heard you say…Welsh Section B? What kind of show is he competing in? Thanks for sharing!
Okay, now watching again sounds like you said Section D? Just curious.
I expect it’s a ridden showing class, maybe one for natives. He’s certainly a lovely stamp of a cob!
Very cool to watch & learn.
How often do you change their shoes?
😅 Women United for Eye Protection! Success 😂
As a dog groomer, this is the same advice I use to handle temperamental K9 clients, especially when it comes to dremeling their nails (they hate that vibration even if it doesn't hurt)... remaining calm and projecting that calm makes all the difference... Hello from the US ❤
👍How often is he shod it looks often.
😊
Have someone hold a lick if he stands good and take it away when he moves
