If you love animals and the outdoors, and you would like to work for yourself, then the Farrier Trade could be for you! In 4 1/2 months, the Colorado School of Trades will teach you this money-making trade and prepare you to start your own business.

The program uses hands-on techniques to teach you all aspects of the Farrier business; from anatomy to keg shoes to corrective shoeing to handmade shoes, including the necessary forge work and everything in-between. It is an A-Z program!

Our Farrier program is designed for the serious student. Much of the lab work is performed on live animals located either in our fully equipped Farrier shop, or at the location of our many customers in the Denver/ Boulder/ Golden area. If the animals can't come to us, our mobile Farrier shop will go to them!

The bottom line is that this program teaches the craft though hands-on techniques, not just by sitting in a classroom.
