Welcome

'Applied Equine Podiatry is a science for the treatment of the equine foot, and should not be considered exclusive to the shoeless horse. Whether to shoe or not to shoe is not the question. The question is how do we provide the correct stimulus for the development of proper structure, function, and performance while protecting and safeguarding the welfare of the horses in our care'. KC La Pierre

Take a moment, grab a pen and paper and draw what you know a good horse's foot looks like. Next time you see your horse, compare your drawing of the ideal with what's in front of you. Hands up whose horse doesn't have perfect feet? As the old adage goes, 'No hoof, no horse'.... Want to get the knowledge to improve those feet and achieve peak performance from your horse?

The science of Applied Equine Podiatry can provide the answers. On our site you will find books and DVDs, plus the best trimming tools, and performance hoofcare products as written, designed or selected by Dr KC La Pierre and Robyn La Pierre, co-founders of the Institute of Applied Equine Podiatry.

The Institute's goal is to teach Horse Owners, Farriers and Veterinarians to integrate the practice of Applied Equine Podiatry and Whole Health Hoof Care into the daily care of the horse, thus advancing the treatment of the equine foot to new levels.

The IAEP's 3 and 5 day courses are approved under the Register of Approved Continuing Education (RACE) for the American Association of Veterinary State Boards (AAVSB).
