“That course on New Farriery Techniques for the Laminitic Equine was worth its weight in gold. I learned a hell of a lot from it and I must say that the application of Imprints has been such a lot easier since coming on the course.

I’d be very interested in going on a course covering more advanced techniques; one for hoof repair using the Imprint Hoof Repair granules would also be good.”

"In my opinion, if you have not attended an Imprint Training Day, I would recommend them to anyone who has an interest in modern farriery techniques".
