Skin related problems and diseases are common in any type of horse and pony and equine practitioners are therefore regularly exposed to such cases on routine visits or during pre-purchase examinations. Despite the undeniable importance of dermatology to the equine clinician, most veterinarians have received only limited training in this area whilst in vet school or as a young assistant.
This practically-oriented two-day course is intended to provide the equine or mixed practitioner with an overview of the most common skin conditions affecting the horse and pony and how to approach them systematically and practically. In the mornings the topics will be covered by two specialists in the field of dermatology in highly illustrated lectures and case presentations and will focus on how they approach skin conditions in a first opinion field setting. On both afternoons, the interactive case-based discussions provide an ideal small-group environment for the attendees to apply what they have learnt during the lectures and to discuss questions.
The combined talent and practical experience of the very experienced equine clinicians, along with a relaxed and friendly atmosphere will stimulate attendees to assimilate knowledge, to put it into practice in groups and to discuss these important clinical problems in the horse and pony.
