Along with the precision that the farrier contains, he has to be able to suspect danger quickly. The same strong legs that plow through clouds of dust and deep grasses can easily do the same thing to a human head or chest.

“Once I tried to get a horse in the corral and it decided to kick me in the chest when I started waving my arms,” said Rogers.

Despite all the danger, Rogers still bases his desire to be a farrier simply on the fact that he loves horses, and says that if you have the opportunity to not only do what you love, but work with whom you love, take it.
