Farrier in Citra, Florida (Marion County)

My name is Dave Boatman and I co-own Valhalla Ranch with my wife Jo.
I obtained some of my farrier experience in England and when I moved to America I completed Red Tomlinson's Farrier school in Daytona, Florida. I qualified with distinction and became a certified Farrier and a member of The Brotherhood of Working Farriers Association (BWFA).
I have extensive experience with horses, competing on the Rodeo circuit and working as a Western Riding Instructor/Trainer.
