WELCOME TO BAUGHER HORSESHOEING!
ABOUT MARK
My name is Mark Baugher. I established my horseshoeing business in 1978. I went to a good horseshoeing school and then began a year long
apprenticeship with the most demanding farrier I have ever encountered. This experience was hard, painful and beneficial. I was prepared
for years of shoeing on the Illinois racetrack.
My proudest time was being asked to be the official horseshoer for the 1981 Hambletonian in DuQuoin Illinois. Shoeing million dollar horses
and collaborating with their owners and trainers was a big experience for me.
I went from there to owning and operating my own horseshoeing school. I taught forge work and lameness shoeing. We hand forged every shoe to
better the skills of my students.
In 2000 I retired and we moved to Arizona. It was then that I began my decline into being soft, fat and lazy. This was slowly killing me
so I decided to go back to work. As a result I feel much better.
I don't claim to be the only farrier that can shoe a horse.
I am not quick to claim success or blame the previous horseshoer.
I don't know everything.
My ego does not control me.
I'm just a man that has been shoeing for a long time, always trying to learn more and improve my work.
So come in and check me out. We might become long time friends.
