The two day clinics meet the requirements for 20.00 hours of continuing education credit for veterinarians and 20.00 hours of continuing education credit for veterinary technicians in jurisdictions which recognize AAVSB's RACE approval program, including California.

 

 

No more clinics.... We are going to focus on research and writing a textbook in '08-'09. We'll probably go back on the road eventually, but after our last scheduled clinic (November '07), we

are going to stay in Georgia for a while. If you want to host a hoof clinic, contact the members at www.americanhoofassociation.org

Each of the professionals listed there are teaching private mentorships and are offering clinics.

 

 

Study www.safergrass.org and watch these new videos. Great help for horses everywhere.
