Gain Clinical Confidence in Equine Podiatry
➤ Are you confident in your ability to make evidence-based foot care decisions?
➤ Do you wish you could collaborate and communicate more effectively with farriers?
➤ Are you looking to refine your therapeutic skills with guidance from top experts?
Foot-related lameness is one of the most common and challenging areas in equine practice—and often one of the most debated. With many vets entering practice with limited formal training in aspects of farriery, confidently navigating podiatry cases can feel daunting.
The Advances in Equine Podiatry Workshop is designed to change that.
This advanced 2-day program blends pre-course online lectures with in-depth in-person training and practical workshops to elevate your skills, clinical reasoning, and decision-making in equine foot care. You’ll work alongside world-leading experts—Simon Moore (UK farrier) and Prof. Michael Schramme (equine surgery specialist)—to tackle cases with clarity and confidence.

✔ A deeper understanding of foot biomechanics, shoeing impact & diagnostic approaches
✔ Practical decision-making tools for managing foot balance, navicular bone disease, laminitis, deep digital flexor tendonitis, hoof cracks & wounds
✔ Confidence in collaborating with farriers and applying corrective shoeing strategies
✔ Hands-on experience with shoeing techniques & shoe selection, quarter crack repair, foot casting, and diagnostic blocks on live horses and specimens
