One Day Barefoot Trimming Lecture/Demo

This lecture/demonstration gives horse owners the knowledge to understand the way the horses hoof works, what to look for in a barefoot trim, how to manage their horse barefoot and the confidence to discuss their horses foot welfare with their trimmer, farrier or vet.

Presented by Mark Johnson, a registered farrier and barefoot trimmer, whose fascination with the horse drives his thirst to gain knowledge about all aspects of this wonderful creature.  More can be seen about his work on his website - www.markjohnsonfarrier.com.
