single learning post
This is a two part webinar series. Part 1 is March 26 and Part 2 is March 27. Each session will run about 2.5 to 3 hours with plenty of time for questions.
Understand the landmarks for the estimation of CE (the vertical location of the bones relative to the hoof capsule) and sole thickness. Misunderstanding of this phenomenon causes some of the most critical errors commonly made by professional hoof care providers and horse owners. Consider sole thickness as part of the breakover equation.
Pete will share the subtle mechanics behind successful hoof capsule rotation and distal descent reversal. Learn to evaluate and select the best current heel height/palmar angle to best support healing. Understand why heel height is the most important balancing act in hoof care and rehabilitation (and the most variable from horse to horse, even day to day). The importance of prioritizing impact and peak load mechanics vs. standing mechanics.
