New Farriery Techniques

for the

Laminitic Equine

Laminitis is a highly traumatic condition for the horse to develop and a difficult, often lengthy and expensive illness to treat. It is a major vascular crisis that results in inflammation of the laminal structures and bonds within the hoof. The damage to the hoof tissue could be severe and cause rotation and sinking of the pedal bone.

“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".
