I would start before the farrier come next time.  Even if it is just the day
before.  He needs to know that clicker means something good.  It will make
him work harder for the treat.   Maybe your husband will "be the farrier"
for one or two sessions then show the farrier what you have been doing and
get him to give treat when you click.  You might start with something
besides the feet to show him that the farrier is no sooo bad.
Then go on to the feet.
