Course Description
Join professional farrier Aaron Harbidge in this intense 2-day trimming clinic. Learn the steps and concepts to analyze your horse’s hooves and correctly use your tools to trim the frog, sole and wall according to your horse’s individual needs for optimal hoof health and balance. Horse owners will complete the course with a solid grasp of hoof-trimming and many move on to successfully care for their own horses’ hooves. Shoes and nails are provided, students supply their own tools and horse.
The course is being offered in partnership with the Dawson Creek Exhibition Association.
