How do farriers shoe a horse?
Carefully. First, they have to cut the clinches of the old shoes and remove the old shoes with pullers. The next tool is usually the hoof knife, used to trim the dead sole, then the nippers for trimming the hoof wall. Rasping the hoof wall level is next, along with removing burrs or flares around the edges of the hoof wall. All of this is performed while crouching under the horse holding the horse’s leg steady. The shoeing process is next.
