This three-day clinic fulfills the beginner series clinic requirement for PHCP students.

Days 1 and 2 will cover anatomy and trimming.
Day 3 will cover pathology, hoof protection and shoe removal.

Some of the topics covered:
-Basic distal limb anatomy
-Exploration of anatomy through cadaver trimming and dissection
-Shoe removal for ease and comfort to both horse and trimmer
-Transitioning to barefoot
-Alternative forms of hoof protection
-Fit and use of a variety of hoof boots, based on performance, rehab or rider needs (glue on protection is not included in this clinic)
-How and when to use hoof casting
-Which padding options to utilize for various pathologies and rehab needs
-Casting and booting on cadaver limbs

Prerequisites:
Read through the PHCP Introduction to Equine Diet and Lifestyle.

Study the PHCP Introduction to Equine Hoof Anatomy.

Visit Anatomy of the Equine to get familiar with the distal limb anatomy before you attend the clinic. Consider purchasing online coursework and ebooks.

What to bring:
Most of this clinic will take place in a heated shop. A small portion of the time will be in the barn working with live horses, so please dress appropriately. Bring a chair or let me know if you need one. Bring your trimming tools if you are able, an apron or towel for your lap, gloves and safety glasses.

If you have a cadaver leg of your own you would like to dissect with us please let us know and bring it along.

There will be a one hour lunch break. You may bring your own lunch to eat on location or there is a diner 3 miles down the road.

Accommodations:
I highly recommend staying in downtown Bristol for the best food and entertainment options. However, there is a B&amp;B large enough for people to share across the fence from my farm (walking distance to my shop). There are also cheaper hotel options 20 minutes away with food close by. Three options on West State Street, Bristol, TN and two options on Linden Drive, Bristol, VA.

Travel:
People should consider flying into TRI airport and be prepared to rent a car. We are in the country so Uber will be expensive or unrealistic.

*Start time is 9:00 am each day and we’ll finish up between 4:00 and 5:00 pm.

Lorie Fleenor, PHCP practitioner, mentor and clinician, is an 8th generation farmer in Bristol, TN. Knowledge of animal welfare has always been a priority for Lorie, and whole horse hoof care has been her passion since she first learned to trim in 2007. She continues her education so that she can better help people and horses find a pathway to health and happy trails. Each year, Lorie hosts multiple clinics at her ranch for riding and hoof care, and is very active in her local horse community. Her husband and two children help her on the farm where they run a 265 head cattle operation, board and care for 75 horses, teach riding, and offer training services. She serves clients in Southwest VA and Northeast TN. She has a huge variety of horses, hooves, and pathologies on her farm. The horses live out 24/7 in herds on hilly pastures, so it’s fun to watch rehab and healthy hooves happen as new horses come in! As we all know, diet, exercise and the trim go hand in hand!

Lorie can be contacted at Magna Vista Farm in Bristol, TN.
