A Student Review:
I was a student at the Casey and Son Horseshoeing School. I found the school online and after doing some research I spoke to a very nice lady on the phone. She helped me through everything I needed for my Veteran funding to attend the school. When I started I met one of the main instructors. He taught the class by visual and hands on learning. He answered all my questions and was very knowledgeable on this trade. I wouldn’t change anything about the school from the clean bunk house to the class time and the in between excellent breakfast and lunches. Since attending the school, I have started on my own and have been very successful in this trade. With the knowledge, I obtained from the school it has helped me go down the right path to making this my career. Most my clients love how I answer their questions and give them knowledge on the anatomy of their horse I wouldn’t have been able to do that without the help of the school and their amazing instructors!
Thank you, Forrest Bass
Since this comment Forrest informed us that he had met other farriers in his area and is starting a good business relationship with them. He says he “absolutely loves this business and cares about the horses that he serves”.
He attended the 12 week course AND 6 week Advanced Courses.
