Farrier Ben and Achilles

Farrier Ben and Achilles.

Ben is a farrier intern at Waterfall Ranch and always has an anvil, nippers and hammer on hand. He checks and cleans the hooves before lighting the smoldering coals of the forge to prepare everything for shoeing. The special horseshoes and horseshoe nails are custom made for each animal. It's not always easy, but at the end of the day Ben has provided the horses at Waterfall with new horseshoes. His mustang stallion Achilles, who has tied Ben to the paddock for shoeing, now trusts him blindly.
Fun fact: Waterfall's previous farrier, who rarely visits the ranch due to his age, entrusted Achilles to Ben's care.

• All playsets in the new Playmobil Horses of Waterfall series consist on average of more than 80% recycled and bio-based materials.
