I agree. Maybe if we all emailed the RSPCA about it they might do something.
 
No now that his name is out there,his customers will have had to go elsewhere to get their horses shod, and lets face it who wants to go back and mabye put their horses lives at risk, if he decides to do it again, most horse people are sensible and will keep well away and even if he moves counties, he's registered in his own name, just rember his name.
 
I would imagine he won't have many clients left after this, I mean, would YOU ever trust this man?
I know I wouldn't.
The Farriery Council should hang their heads in shame, they have been way too lenient, a lifetime ban would have been justified in his case, to deliberately lame an animal and cause pain is beyond belief.
No, I think the horseowners of this country will persuade him to change careers, he surely isn't fit to be a farrier..
 
I emailed also and received a standard response, saying my comments would be passed on.

Not sure what impact all our emails are having but keep those emails coming, folks.;)
 
The farrier council don't deal with anything, it's well known within the profession. He is still plying his trade, he is going round with another farrier who is doing his work for him presumably for a cut. He asked a few to help him out. There are still people locally who think there is more to it, there isn't, the owner did nothing to deserve this..not that you could anyway and local Farriers think it's shocking and a welfare issue.

Im sure they do, sadly it seems all of these trade bodys are mostly just to promote the work not to control or act against bad apples, the farrier concerned is obviousy shameless and a danger to horses and maybe people !!this failure of the FRC to deal robustly with this man reflects very badly on them all and will ultamately damage the reputation of all farriers ....

Sadly, I think this is very true. Do they have open policies to control these bad apples available on line for all to see, anyone know?

Just a reminder to all of what he sneaked into a field in the dead of night to do, on 2 separate occasions to two different horses:

But would his registration be able to be changed or would he have to resit and I should imagine most of his ex clients will know him, unless he moves well away from the area.

What, are you saying the horses he deliberately maimed boiled his bunny? :confused:

After all, it was the horses he more or less tortured, no one else! Whatever, or whoever the "bunny boiler" is that you are referring to, it wasn't them that he ruined for life - unless they are the genius small animal keeping type horses, not your regular trusting gentle, don't expect to be attacked and permanently injured by someone who s supposed to look after their welfare type horses - Jeeez!:mad:

Not JUST local farriers! I was discussing this with my farrier this morning. He's seen the pictures and is appalled, angry and disgusted. In his view this 'thing' (can't use the word HE used or it will be ******* out!) should have been banned for life!
 
From the information ive read on this case it was a pre meditaded, deliberate cruel injury to 2 horses on 2 seperate occassions, what did the horses do to him ? Poor beasts were just an easy target for a nasty vindictive barsteward, do we have to get a 3rd or 4rth DELIBERATE CRUEL INJURY to other animals from this individual if he says someone upset him, before the farrier council treat this man for what he is, a devious, cruel piece of excrament.
Any other profession where pre meditated cruelty is proven the perpetrator would be struck off, i find it astonishing he got a 3 month ban, and have to say the fact that the governing body of farriers feels this is acceptable punishment beggars belief
