Event description
How do we ensure that the horse’s feet are working effectively to create a strong, stable body that is able to work correctly?
This webinar, in our very popular PKW Events format – bringing multi-disciplinary experts together to discuss a topic – brings together a farrier, body worker, trainer and vet, to discuss how the professions can work together symbiotically. They will look at foot health from different perspectives, providing delegates with a global view of how the feet can negatively or, positively affect the horse.
The horse’s feet are not only the foundation of its stability but also, one of the biggest recipients of sensory feedback from their environment. If the feet are not functioning correctly, are pathological or compromised in any way, the entire structure of the horse will be impeded. Our panel will be looking at how to identify problems in the feet, how they relate to movement, posture and musculature and, how to ensure they are functioning optimally for each individual horse.

SPEAKER PROFILES
Richard Chard AWCF

Richard had an interest in horses from a young age. He started his farriery apprenticeship when he was 16 years old. Qualifying for the Dip WCF in 1985 he gained his Associateship in 1988. In 2013 he attained the CNBF from the Equine Lameness Prevention Organisation.
The passion for life long learning took him all over the country attending courses, seminars and lectures. Richard started his own business in the early nineties, which developed into a broad and diverse client base. Concentrating on helping horses with complex and often long standing hoof pathology he works alongside the local veterinary practices in helping their clients resolve hoof problems and manage lameness issues.
After forty years in the profession, Richard has now reduced his work load, which has enabled him to spend more time woodworking and supporting his wife Charlotte, with her three phase carriage driving competitions.
Liz Eaton BHSI Accredited Performance Coach

Liz has over 35 years experience training riders from grass roots to international competition, in all three disciplines. She has an innovative approach based on biomechanics and psychology of both horse and rider, which enables her to create positive and lasting changes to their partnership and performance.
Jodie Daglish Consultant at Newmarket Equine Hospital, BVSc MS DipACVSMR MRCVS

Jodie graduated from Bristol University Veterinary School in 2010. She initially undertook a 2 year internship at Newmarket Equine Hospital before pursuing an ambulatory role at Lambourn Equine Vets, working predominantly with event horses and racehorses. Following this Jodie moved to the University of California, Davis to study integrative sports medicine with a focus on acupuncture and chiropractic application in the sports horse. Jodie then enrolled in a one year equine diagnostic imaging internship at Colorado State University before transitioning into the equine sports medicine and rehabilitation residency program. During this time Jodie completed a Masters in Clinical Sciences and successfully attained board certification in Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation in February 2020. Jodie returned to work at Newmarket Equine Hospital in September 2019 and currently has a consultant role, providing lameness assessments and poor performance evaluation. She also is responsible for development of rehabilitation protocols for inpatients, post operative patients and for those presenting with a primary issue not requiring surgery. This is a consultation service that Jodie additionally provides remotely in conjunction with home veterinarians.
During her residency training Jodie gained extensive knowledge and experience in equine musculoskeletal rehabilitation at Colorado State University, the original home of equine sports medicine and rehabilitation. She has worked tirelessly in the advancement of the understanding and application of rehabilitation techniques utilising therapeutic modalities, manual therapy and physical therapy.
Jodie is the first equine veterinarian in the UK to have specialist residency training in equine rehabilitation and has the capacity to provide protocols in laser therapy, extracorporeal shockwave therapy, therapeutic ultrasound, TENS, NMES, acupuncture, kinesiotape application and physical therapy.
Jodie applies a whole horse approach to her case management and encourages owners and trainers to build a dynamic system of feedback and program review so that programs can be adapted rapidly and to accommodate difficulties or success according to progress.
