Loddington Events

Friday 20th June

Hosted by Loddington Coppice Equine Healthcare and presented by Mark Johnson Dip WCF

An Equine Lower Limb Dissection

For me, looking at hoof, limb and whole horse anatomy has shaped the way I think about and how I approach hoofcare in a big way!

Starting at 10am prompt and finishing around 4pm (so not very prompt ) join us at Loddington for an interactive dissection where you will be able to physically touch and interact with the specimen (if you wish) and begin to appreciate the link between functional anatomy and our everyday interactions with our horses

Everything connects to everything and everything influences everything so along the way and intertwined with the dissection comes more topics of how to help hooves develop, maintaining healthy hooves whether shod of barefoot, discussing ways to reduce repetitive stress injuries and anywhere else our conversation takes us

Finishing the day with a demonstration (crumbs I hate that word so find me another please!) of me trimming some horses, everything we do to a horse should have a thought process attached and reasoning behind it so I will do my best to give you mine

Places will be limited to 15 atendee’s, we want to make sure EVERYONE gets what they need from the day to the best of our abilities, oh! And that includes some food! (Very important! )

The cost of the day will be £60 per person and please could you contact Sam at Loddington Coppice to book Email to book

Loddington Coppice Equine Healthcare presents

“Before you Buy a Horse”

Horses are complex animals and while they are easy to fall in love with they can bring with them many issues we wish we’d known about beforehand.

Time served U.K. registered farriers Clive Meers-Rainger RSS and Mark Johnson Dip WCF will spend the day here at Loddington, going through the oh so many issues they have frequently come up against during their working careers, issues they wish their new client/owners had been able to recognise beforehand, allowing them to make their financial and emotional investments with full knowledge and both eyes open.

The day will consist of a theory presentation during the morning with Mark and in the afternoon session, Clive will be making observations on live horses.

You will have plenty of time to be able to make notes and ask questions during what we know will be an informative, interactive and enjoyable day, setting you up with a fresh thought process and new information before you commit to your new equine friend.

Throughout the day hot drinks will be available and a light lunch will also be served,

PLEASE LET US KNOW IN ADVANCE ABOUT ANY SPECIFIC DIETARY REQUIREMENTS THANK YOU!

Places are limited and priced at £65 per person and must be purchased prior to the event. a full refund will be available in the unlikely event that we need to cancel this clinic

Please contact Loddington via email to book and for directions.

The information from the day in no way replaces any veterinary health inspection of your proposed horse prior to purchase
