We finally found a GOOD farrier. Unfortunately he does not have a phone listing. We found our farrier through the Amish community. The Amish have always had a very good reputation with horses, from training, to farrier, to just about anything to do with horses. Horses are such a part of their lives, that they have become in my opinion, the professionals of horse care.
If you have an Amish community nearby, check with someone in that community about a farrier. Just be sure to respect thier way of life. We have found that Saturday's are the best time to contact someone in the community. Ladies, just remember it may be considered rude if a woman approaches an Amish man to even just ask a question.
Do some reasearch on the best way to approach without offending, and you will find a community full of people that always help each other, and if treated with respect, will help us outsiders too.
