Don’t Get Ghosted: How to Keep Quality Clients

You have a new client whose horses are well-mannered, pays promptly and seems satisfied with your work, but then suddenly becomes non-responsive.

Podiatry


Deep Digital Flexor Tendonopathy

In this presentation I will present a case that was diagnosed by ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with deep digital flexor tendonopathy. I will include the history, diagnostics and treatment/rehabilitation for the case.

Dr. Brian Beasley

Straight Sesamoidean Ligament Rupture and Mechanical Effects on the Straight Sesamoidean Ligament

Although we will be reviewing a catastrophic rupture of the superficial sesamoidean ligament, there was a possibility that this rupture 2021 NAEP CONFERENCE REGISTRATION KIT TOGETHER FOR THE HORSE 27 could have been avoided had there been a proactive shoeing protocol implemented sooner. MRI has indicated that SSL injury is more common than previously understood, we will discuss shoeing possibilities to unload the SSL to aid in healing.

Mr. Doug Russo

The Diagnosis, Treatment & Farriery of a Fracture of the Distal Phalanx

This presentation will cover the farrier’s perspective of the joint efforts of a Veterinarian & Farrier as they address a lameness case of the hind limb of a young horse. It will share documentation of the two professions working together as the lameness is diagnosed as a fracture to the distal phalanx, the surgical treatments performed, and the farriery to support and protect the hoof capsule during the recovery stages. Along with numerous images of the progress of this case, we will also share set backs encountered along the way to the final outcome of a sound horse. We will include video of the horse in motion, while the horse is lame from the injury, the lameness encountered during set backs with treatment, and its soundness once healed.

The presentation will include a series of images and radiographs using the same horse illustrating several reasonable changes in limb position and/or the generator as well as horses due for trimming and some sample shoeing changes.

Mr. Scott Lampert

Hospital Plate Shoes: Their Fabrication and Uses

Hospital plate or treatment plate horseshoes are used for many types of hoof injuries, surgeries, and other conditions.

Using a hospital plate shoe also saves money on expensive bandaging and time to wrap a foot up regularly. This discussion will show the various designs of hospital plate shoes and how they are fabricated. Examples of some of the manufactured pads that have similar use is included as well as some historical hospital plate shoes from the Henry Asmus collection at Cornell University. Step-by-step, methods will be shown on how to fabricate these shoes and the materials used. Actual cases of hospital plate shoes for surgical cases and injuries will be reviewed.

Topic:  "Shoeing Reiners: Focusing on the Fronts"

When it comes to keeping reining horses performing at their best, it is all about the fronts, according to Dutch farrier Ronald Aalders. If not enough consideration is given to how the fore feet are shod, problems will arise.   In this webinar, Aalders will survey his approach for shoeing these horses. He’ll pull from his experience in working with horses at all levels, including AQHA and NRHA World Champions and multiple futurity champions in the United States, to provide insight on overcoming various problems that may arise when shoeing the front feet. And while the focus is on reining horses, Aalders will deliver advice that can be helpful across other disciplines.

Norwich, England, farrier Mark Aikens traveled to India as part of the Flying Anvil Foundation's program. While there, he instructed novice farriers on the practices of better footcare.

In this webinar, Aikens will share fascinating highlights from this trip and explain the unique challenges that farriers in India and other countries face. Many of the horses that these farriers will work on are still used as working animals, so the livelihood of a community often depends on quality footcare.

Aikens' presentation will be followed by a Q&A session.

Clinician: Travis Burns APF CJF TE AWCF There is a lot to consider when using hoof pads. Chief among these is how will the horse benefit from pad usage. When you start factoring in style, material, the horse�s job and the issue you are trying to address, it can be easy to introduce a problem rather that solving one. Travis Burns takes careful consideration before he applies a pad to a shoeing job. The farrier and faculty member of the Virginia-Maryland Regional College of Veterinary Medicine will discuss how he uses pads in his practice and what helps him determine if a pad should be used, foot preparation and what type of pad he employs in various cases.

Clinicians: Sylvia Kornherr and M.W. Tookie Myers, DVM Many hoof care professionals find it increasingly difficult to maintain healthy hoof growth and capsule integrity for maintenance or redevelopment of hooves. Building healthy hoof mass with sufficient sole depth, strong horn tubules and good laminae integrity starts with nutritional support. We will discuss important factors about nutrition that can dramatically improve or deter hoof health and growth, highlighting useful information to help you in the field. The purpose of the information is not to make you a nutritional expert, but to give you the ability to know when nutritional issues could be present and you can direct your client to seek assistance. This information is a very good tool to add to one's toolbox empowering both the farrier and horse owner to team together for best hoof health results.

Davie County Large Animal Hospital hosts a farrier meeting on the second Tuesday of every month at their clinic for farriers, veterinarians, and horse owners. We bring in a case study horse experiencing a lameness issue to evaluate and discuss the best approach to diagnose, treat and maintain it. The veterinarian completes a full lameness exam on the horse and utilizes appropriate diagnostics such as radiographs, nerve blocks, and flexions. Upon lameness diagnosis, all farriers and veterinarians in attendance collaborate in a round table discussion about the best method to shoe the horse. The existing farrier on the case is heavily encouraged to attend and shoe the horse with inputs from other farriers present at the meeting.

Our goal is to collaborate with the veterinarians and educate all in attendance. We want to ensure that the process we execute at our meetings is repeatable by the farrier at the farm going forward.
