Iain Ritchie & John Dixon- Mentor, Teacher, Competitors, Canadian Farriers Team Teammates, and Friends

We were fortunate to have Iain Ritchie and John Dixon come down south from Canada while we were having a team practice for the upcoming WCB contest "The Classic" to share their knowledge and criticism for us to become better prepared as a team. Top notch guys to lend their time out of their busy schedules to just to come help us! Says a lot about who they are, as respectable men. So thank you for that Iain and John. Of course since we had them here in our presence, we had to do a podcast with them. Getting to hear Iain's story about how and why he moved from Scotland to Canada was really cool to hear, amongst other topics discussed in this episode that you'll have to tune in to hear. John is a multi-generational farrier who grew up learning how to shoe horses from his dad, Steve Dixon" primarily and then also working for Iain for many years too. They've both been on the Canadian Farriers Team multiple times as well, and was neat to hear how that process is to qualify for that team. There's multiple times in this episode that we almost fell out of our chairs laughing so hard at John's sense of humor and jokes!😂 Some of the jokes could rub some folks the wrong way but in all seriousness, these were jokes and not literal jabs.                                                             I also feel like we only scratched the surface hearing what John & Iain had to share with us because the evening/night was getting pretty late and they still had a many hour drive back home to Canada.   We hope you enjoy listening to this episode as much as we did getting to record with these two gentlemen!
