We use four different books, we also use charts, slides and videos.  All the classroom instruction is done by Tom, occasionally a special lecture will be given by a guest veterinarian or farrier.

We go into great detail about the horse and his conformation, however, the teaching is presented in understandable terms and each student upon graduation is a qualified, well informed farrier.  Each student will learn to form and use handmade shoes.  Welding and brazing are taught also.  Tools and materials used while in school are furnished by the school.

We have completely equipped mobile units when working.

We are VA and DAV approved.

We at Lookout Mountain School of Horseshoeing invite anyone to drop in for a visit anytime.
