Event Details
Participants will gain valuable insights into hoof anatomy, biomechanics, and pathology while engaging in practical demonstrations and discussions with peers and experts in the field. The wet lab format encourages active learning and collaboration between veterinarians and farriers—an approach that strengthens outcomes for the horses we care for.
Breakfast and lunch will be provided on Saturday, and complimentary drinks and hors d’oeuvres will be available during the Friday evening social hour.
