Farriers are in high demand as horse ownership booms, but formal training programs are scarce
Dan Morgan has always loved horses, but it wasn't until later in life that he felt like he found his true calling, working as a farrier.
After a career as a horse trainer, followed by a move into mining, it was his sons who inspired him to pursue a new passion — shoeing horses and specialising in equine hoof care.
"I went into mining and I was doing some [shoeing] on my days off," Mr Morgan said.
"But I had two boys I felt like I needed to be home for and I really started to like shoeing, so I went into that full-time."
