About the Book

The Farriers’ Testbook is a concise study guide designed to help farriers prepare for AFA and AFTC written certification exams. Kailey McIntosh presents the essential information in short sections with straightforward explanations, diagrams, and pictures for readers who prefer a focused alternative to working through hundreds of textbook pages.

The guide covers material from basic anatomical terminology through hoof and limb structures, lameness, conformation, movement, general horse health, and therapeutic shoe modifications. References to The Principles of Horseshoeing (P3) and Gregory’s Textbook of Farriery make it easy to continue studying a subject in greater depth when needed.
