My Old Boy Fuse 🐴💜

This is my beautiful Father’s Day gift from Toni a picture of my old boy Fuse, who passed away back in 2019. 😞❤️

Fuse was my very first horse I ever owned , and we shared so many bloody awesome memories together. When I first got him, he wasn’t a horse that liked attention at all. But I was constantly giving him attention, spending time with him and getting to know him. Eventually, he gave in and before long, he was the first one at the gate whenever he saw a saddle. 😂

He became such a special part of my life, and I could never replace him. He was a truly unique horse, and I haven’t found another quite like him.

I’ll always remember the good times, the lessons he taught me and the memories we shared.

Rest easy, my old mate. You will never be forgotten. ❤️🐴💜

And yes… he absolutely bloody loved his licorice! 😂😞❤️

The Life of Being a Farrier 🐴

Being a farrier isn’t always easy. There will always be people watching, judging and waiting for you to make a mistake so they can have a crack. But isn’t making mistakes, learning from them and continually improving what life is all about?

I’ve spent years building myself into the farrier I am today. I have my Cert IV in Farriery, years of hands-on experience and countless hours underneath horses and I’m still learning every single day. I don’t claim to know everything, and I never will. There is always something new to learn.

What I don’t understand is people who have never used my services, don’t know me, don’t know my work and don’t understand the farriery industry, yet are happy to listen to someone having a crack at me or trying to bring me down.

I’m all for helping others in this industry. We should be supporting and educating each other, not backstabbing each other just to make ourselves look better.

At the end of the day, I simply concentrate on doing the best I can for myself, continuing to learn and educating my clients about what I see in their horses so we can work towards the best possible outcome and performance.

And one thing I always try to make clear to my clients if I’m working on a horse that has previously had another farrier, I’m not there to attack or criticise that farrier. They have their own experiences, knowledge and methods, just as I have mine. We all have different strengths, different weaknesses, different opinions and different pathways through this industry.

We all charge different prices. We all see things differently. And my way of doing things might not suit every horse or every owner and that’s completely fine.

At the end of the day, most good farriers are there because they genuinely care about getting the best result for the horse. 🐎❤️

And remember, you never truly know what your farrier, your client or anyone else around you is going through personally.

So be kind. Be caring. Be respectful. Have a smile.

It costs nothing, but it can change someone’s entire day or even their path in life.

Look after yourselves, look after each other and keep learning.

Much love to all my followers, supporters and even the haters. ❤️🐴

Redemption Lodge Farrier Service 🐎🤙

Home base here in the beautiful Manning Valley, with the Martin Bridge views, the river beside me and a couple of ducks keeping me company. 🦆🌿

Days like this remind me how lucky I am to live and work in such a beautiful part of the country.

I hope all my wonderful clients have had a spectacular day. ❤️

And honestly, without all of you supporting my business, I wouldn’t be the farrier I am today. I appreciate every single one of you and I’m grateful for the trust you put in me and Redemption Lodge Farrier Service.

Enjoy life, enjoy the view and keep chasing the good days! 🍻🐴🤙

Farrier life 🤠🐴

I love working with horses because every one of them has their own personality. You can learn so much from a horse if you take the time to listen and understand what they’re telling you through their body language.

Their behaviour can tell you a lot , you just have to slow down, pay attention and work them out. Horses are far more intelligent than some people give them credit for.

Every horse teaches you something, and that’s one of the things I love most about being a farrier. 🔨🐎🐴❤️

As a farrier running my own business, I really appreciate good clients who work in with me to get the best possible outcome for their horses’ performance. 🐴🤙

Great working conditions, easy to deal with horses that tie up and stand quietly make a big difference and allow me to do my best work.

This is one of many favourite places I get to work at. Beautiful horses, great clients and a great setup , makes the job even more enjoyable. 🐴🤠

A picture speaks for itself. 🤙🐎

Farrier life. Early mornings, honest work, good horses, and plenty of miles. Wouldn’t trade it for anything.

Space Station 🏇🏾🤙

I’ve been shoeing this old Thoroughbred for 13 years now, and he’s still one of the best.

He walks up from the paddock on his own, enjoys a few pellets, and of course, we share a few licorice treats. Then he stands there while I put his front shoes on, no halter, no lead rope, just complete trust.

Moments like this don’t happen overnight. They’re built over years of patience, consistency, and respect. Horses like Space Station are the reason I love what I do. It’s relationships like these that make being a farrier so rewarding.
