I intend to offer more classes next year. Hopefully if I can find a source for cadaver hooves I will offer a class to
dissect and actually trim. I will let you know.

This Clinic is intended as basic information to horse owners who wish to understand their horses feet better.
Trimming the healthy hoof is covered to show the basics of hoof care and cannot cover all abnormalities that can
occur. Owners who would like to learn to trim their own horses hooves can get individual instruction through
regular trimming appointments. Attempting to trim horses without supervision can cause complications and
lameness to the horse.

Under illinois law, an equine activity, sponsor or professional shall not be liable for any injury to, or the death of a
participant or equine in equine activities resulting from the inherent risk of equine activities.
