Limited students per course so we keep the student to instructor ratio as low as possible
We may be working on horses from 8:00 am til 8:00 pm on many ocassions, there are road trips and travelling
There are many asssignments, homework, case studies, and alot of reading in this intense hands on, lab and lecture based course. We have guest farriers, vets, prior students and horse owners to discuss various problems and issues related to horses. When you leave Prairie Farrier School you will have a great education and a great start on your new carreer as an entry level professional farrier.
As a student, you will get under many horses, but please keep in mind that quality is always more important than quantity.
Institutional Goals
- Bring each student's skill to the highest possible level.
- Provide access for educational opportunities.
- Promote student engagement in activities that enhance learning.
- Create opportunities for personal development, growth, leadership and civic responsibility.
Excessive physical strength is not required to become a successful farrier. However, a student must understand the physical demands necessary to learn and perform the proper techniques of trimming and shoeing a horse. In fact, proper fitness and the ability to work with hand tools are necessary components for any student to be successful throughout the rigorous curriculum at Prairie Farrier School.
We do not pander to snowflakes...this job is not easy, you really have to want it.
The next course starts very soon
