A person who cares for equine feet including trimming and shoeing is called a/an

The correct term for a person who specializes in caring for the hooves of horses, including tasks like trimming and shoeing, is a farrier. Farriers undergo specific training that combines veterinary knowledge with blacksmithing skills to ensure that horses' feet are healthy and properly shod. The role is crucial for maintaining equine health, as improper hoof care can lead to various issues, including lameness and other foot-related problems.

An equestrian refers to someone who rides horses, but it does not specifically denote any expertise in hoof care. Hobble is a device used to restrict a horse's movement, and quittor is a term referring to a specific type of abscess or infection in the hoof. Therefore, farrier is the most accurate and relevant term in this context.
