Donkey Trimming

Classes start at 10am and end around 5pm.
Instructor starts with a complete discussion of all the parts of the Donkey hoof and their function. How do they differ from horses?
Each participating student will have a Donkey cadaver leg, which they will assess and map before trimming.
The trimming will begin step by step applying the correct trim to the individual hoof, with focus on proper tool handling and techniques used in the field.
After the students have finished their trim, they will be given the opportunity to explore their hoof, to identify vital structures and the perimeters of which one must stay within to achieve optimal soundness.
We will finish with a dissection to further explore the anatomy of the distal limb.
