Thorsten’s Hoofcare Channel (TsHC)

We have just added this new section to the website. You can get to it via this link.

Simply go there, create an account if you haven’t got one, then click “Take the course”, and you are in.

It contains videos and articles on hoofcare related topics. The first few posts are establishing the basics in hoof anatomy, which is the foundation for anyone who would like to understand hooves, or even work on them.

It is supported via a chat group. You will find the links to that in the course description.

Feel free to make suggestions on what topics you would like to see covered, as well as how you like the format.

Holistic Hoofcare Certificate Course – 2023

Early-Bird Registration closes on 31st December, 2022

Over the last year, we have developed and implemented this new hoofcare course, that gives you more in-depth knowledge of the anatomy and functioning of the hoof.

It is implemented on our online learning platform where material is provided in both written form and presented via video.

Each module concludes with a short self-test quiz so you can see how much info you have retained.

The course is run over two semesters and forms the per-requisite for the HHP course.
