3.00 Credits
This course examines three primary areas of Equine Stable Management to provide a strong knowledge base and critical skill-building opportunities for students interested in entering equine-centered careers. Specific focus areas include general business tools and practices, equine knowledge and care, and equine facilities management. Students receive hands-on learning opportunities in addition to classroom instruction. This course will culminate with a final project emphasizing a holistic approach to managing an equine stable of the students? design.

10.00 Credits
This course provides in-depth training in the skills and techniques of horseshoeing. Students will conduct a comprehensive study of trimming and shoeing to achieve and maintain limb and foot balance as well as explore topics in specialty, remedial and therapeutic shoes. Students will learn to build shoes for specific purposes. Completion of this course and the preceding courses is intended to prepare students as entry level farriers; and students are encouraged to complete the American Farrier Association?s (AFA) Farrier Classification examination.
