02 / MEET BIG RED

One horse.
A lasting bond.
A new calling.

Andrew O’Connor, known as Big Red, with his horse Titus — Big Red & Titus

Inspired by Titus, my Percheron/Paint cross gelding.
Together since 2008.

“He is the reason why I want to be a successful horse farrier.”

Titus, my Percheron/Paint cross gelding, has been with me since 2008. Finding a good farrier willing to work on drafts and draft crosses wasn’t easy. That experience is what set me on this path.

After I moved to Spokane Valley, I found a farrier who was willing to trim my gelding and taught me most of what I know. Today, I offer barefoot trims and continue to build my experience, with plans to attend farrier school and clinics.

I’ve also worked with a couple of horses with laminitis. If your horse has a hoof health concern, let’s discuss their needs and any guidance from your veterinarian before scheduling.

— Andrew “Big Red” O’Connor
