The Hoof of the Horse Podcast

I can certainly say Jamie Cooper is the first lawyer I’ve had on my podcast, and she made for an excellent guest while sharing some important insights for farriers everywhere. You’ll have to listen to find out more!

This interview was recorded with Jamie at the 2023 International Hoof Care Summit, where she was a speaker. I’m looking forward to being back there this week and recording more podcasts.

I recorded this episode with Tone at my summer clinic in Sweden, where she provided her skills in radiography. We’ve had many great discussions over the years, often at conferences, so it was great to finally have her as a guest on my podcast.

This is a bit of a different episode from our usual format. I sat down to talk to three fellow anatomy enthusiasts, Gavin Moody, Stephen Hill and Richard Maltby-Smith, after we had spent a few hours together dissecting and investigating a canker case.

We cover too much to mention in this interview with Puerto Rico born farrier and veterinarian, Raul Bras, who is now based at Rood & Riddle Hospital in Lexington, Kentucky.
