In Part 1, Steve gives some insight into laminitis by sharing a few of his experiences in 20+ years of successfully caring for laminitic horses.

Episode 20: Come join us!

Steve decided it was time to (briefly) describe what happens at the Comprehensive Hoof Care Workshop [https://enlightenedequineworkshops.com/description/] in some detail, so in this episode, he goes through the entire schedule and talks about most everything that happens during the Workshop.

Episode 19: Can you hear me now?

In this episode, Steve leads off with a bit of ranting about the idea of a lack of respect for the hoof care provider, including an anecdote about possibly the worst offender he's yet experienced. He then goes on to talk about sheared heels, and how they often relate to a misunderstanding of what a properly-balanced hoof actually looks like versus how balance is often taught. From there, the discussion then details visual and auditory methods of identifying whether or not a foot is properly balanced while the horse is moving. There are also some audio examples of landings.
