Purpose driven footcare

摘要

On a day that featured a variety of breeds and disciplines, the constant within Taylor Keenan's practice was quality hoof care delivered with sound reasoning. Every horseshoer knows a farrier who found the trade after previously pursuing one, two or maybe more alternative careers. The earlier careers range from those with more natural transitions within the equine world, such as trainers or feedlot cowboys, to others that aren't tied to horses at all, like software engineers or musicians. And while many have come to farriery after working elsewhere, those who begin their hoof-care study lacking horsemanship typically don't fare as well as those who do. Though rare, it is not impossible that some of these farriers not only establish a practice, but build a thriving business.
