A Seasoned Horseshoeing Instructor - Dennis Cappel
I have been studying and practicing the art of horse shoeing since 1982 and I have conducted my school since 1993. One of my favorite things to do is to teach people how to recognize distortion in their horses feet and show them how to correctly trim the foot to properly support the bony structures of the leg to optimize soundness and performance . I personally teach each student one on one . I will be with you every step of the way on your journey to becoming the best farrier you can be . People are amazed at how much they learn in such a short amount of time when they attend my class! New online Horse Trimming course coming soon... Sign up now and save below!

Horseshoeing is still one of the best ways to prevent lameness in horses. Balanced shoeing is the epitome of horseshoeing done correctly . Correct trimming prevents the need for so called corrective shoeing! An ounce of prevention is still worth a pound of cure.

Hello I am Dennis Cappel founder/ instructor of Farrier School est 1993. Watch this video and get to know me better and why this school could be just what you have been looking for. You will see students being instructed as well as the mapping system and much more .
Watch this and get ready to join the fun! Hope to see you at one of my monthly classes.
I started this class in 1993 for some of my customers who wanted to do their own horse shoeing. It wasn't long after the first few classes that some of the graduates were shoeing for other people and many of them have gone on to become full time farriers. I have had companies call me and offer this trade school to those looking seeking other employment.
I believe the reason this training program has been so successful for its graduates is because of my personal attention. I personally teach every class and since I have over 30 years of experience and I continue to stay on the cutting edge of techniques to help horses to become more comfortable and better performers, I will share this valuable information with you. I am also am a horse trainer and competitor as well so I have a better understanding of how the horse actually feels than someone who is just a horseshoer.
