Farrier Input Needed For The Ohio State University Survey

Stephen O’Grady
July 28, 2014

We all know the importance of a good vet-farrier relationship...we also know that this relationship between the two professions is often quite strained. Dr. Jim Belknap, a surgeon and laminitis researcher at The Ohio State University School of Veterinary Medicine, has initiated a survey that looks at aspects and issues with this relationship from the farrier side. The survey was formatted with input from 3 veterinarians and 3 farriers. Results will be used in a presentation to be given at The BEVA Congress in the UK in September. Results will also be made available to the organizations close affiliated with these two professions. 

So please take a minute and to help us with this project...your input is invaluable. Many thanks!

(Please note that the mechanics of the survey will only allow you to take it one time and if you click the link, you must complete the survey within 4 hours.)
