When farriers and vets were asked for suggestions for what they needed in an educational shoeing program, American Farriers Journal readers came through with flying colors.

Based on hundreds of valuable ideas, farriers and equine veterinarians are helping us develop a non-stop shoeing education program that will meet your specific needs at next February’s International Hoof-Care Summit. Featuring a “Shoeing Knowledge Is Power” theme, this summit, being held from Feb. 5 to 7, 2004, in Cincinnati, Ohio, will differ from any event that you’ve ever attended!

From postcard surveys sent in by American Farriers Journal readers, our staff pulled together a list of 167 concerns that you face in your shoeing business, 123 recommended speakers and 143 footcare techniques you’d like to see covered at this event.
