Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Horse kicked the ferrier...liability?

Maybe she shoes them on her raft while transporting them across a body of water...

OK....I hate horses.

With a little salt and Ketchup they ain't bad.

Mine too!

Ole stupid taint tick Scumlord has a $1 million Umbrella policy on top of $300,000 personal liability associated with Homeowners.

That's a clue.

She shouldn't have had the horse she was working on close to any of the other horses.

No schiet. We knew a farrier that would take no schiet from a horse that would not co-operate. He could throw them like steer wrestlers throw a steer, and they would lie still while he fixed the shoes.

My mama did our farrier work. She went to school for it. It was next door to Lug Nut College.

Anyway, I was in charge of “The Twitch” oh yeah mfer!! LOL

Turn their nose upside down with the numchuck looking thing if they got assy.

Yeah, BUT. Homeowners liability will cover lots of things but generally will not cover a paid employee and depending on state law and/or maybe a signed agreement the farrier may not be considered a contractor. Maybe an employee albeit a temporary employee. Lots of times the law is what a judge says it is.

Very smart.

I'm not much of a horseman. Never owned one and haven't been on one since 2002, but somewhere in my youth I must have heard something like that, because I do the same thing.

Everybody know the horse liable to kick the blacksmith.. damn.

I carry an umbrella too, but that has nothing to do with my son's situation however. Appreciate the responses, right along with what I told him. He's a little stressed about it even though he did nothing wrong.

This thread is a perfect example of "tell me you don't know what the fûck youre talking about without telling me you don't know what the fûck you're talking about"

No doubt. Twenty odd year ago, when I first started at the vet clinic down the street, they were all male vets (one was a US Marine Reservist) and mostly male techs. Gradually, over the last three or four years, they transitioned into an all female operation. One by one, the last remaining male vets and techs left, and were replaced by female vets and techs.

Before the transition, no vet would ever tell me they couldn't do whatever they needed to do to my dogs (examine, vaccinate, draw blood, whatever). They'd establish dominance over them and do what needed doing. Now I get told that they weren't able to do this and weren't able to do that, and they prescribe powerful sedatives for my dogs and tell me to come back again so they can finish while my dogs are drugged out.

That's BS. Get the male vets and techs back.

My dogs like em.

Ax handle with a nice rope loop on the end.

I don't get it, sorry.
