Academia Liberti feat. Strasser hoof care seminar based

We are pleased with the very successful base Strasser hoof care seminar to report that of 25 to 27 September 2009 in the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine was held at the Latvian Agricultural University.

the seminar, 30 participants have gathered, among them four veterinarians.

lecturer Dr. med vet Hiltrud Strasser (Germany), a veterinarian, the nearly 30 years, 15 of them in their own clinic (Hufklinik, http://www.hufklinik.de), the causes and cures of has lameness and other common health problems of domesticated horses studied and researched. They based their research on wild horses and has an optimal Barhufmodel set. Through the use of her research, she has developed a complete system for the care of horses in a manmade environment, the many health problems that occur right now in conventional housing, minimized. The orthopedic methods which they have developed an unprecedented success in the rehab provided by equine lameness. Moreover, their techniques are to receive a daily method, the optimum health of horses successfully. In 1993 she opened the "Institute for hoof health 'and ESHOP (European School for Hoof Orthopedics), a center for studying and learning. Dr. Strasser is the author of several books on lameness and healing, books on natural Unterbrinung von Pferden und vielen Artikeln für Pferde- und veterinären Zeitschriften.



Während zwei sechs Stunden langer Vorlesungen am 1. und 2. Tag hat Dr. Strasser Themen wie Anatomie, Physik und Funktion des Pferdehufs, die Bedeutung dieser Funktionen, die Verbindung des Hufs mit dem Rest des Tieres, die Effekte von Hufeisen sowie die theoretischen Grundlagen des anatomisch und physiologisch korrekten Trimmens (anders als der gelehrte Trim in konventionellen Hufschmied Kursen), was zu erwarten ist während des Übergangs und/oder Rehabilitationsperiode des lahmen oder beschlagenen Pferdes zum gesunden Tier, barhüfige Hochleistungspferde , die umgebungsbedingten Bedürfnisse der Pferdegesundheit und die Erkennung von schadvollen Umständen der konventionellen Haltung, behandelt.







Eine Menge Fragen erwarteten Dr. Strasser während der Pausen und nach den Vorlesungen.




Der spannendste Tag! Am Tag Nr. 3 ging es an die Praxis.




Dr. Strasser machte einen kompletten Trim an einem der Kadaverhufe, dazu demonstrierte und erklärte sie Trimmtechniken.







Dann hatten die Teilnehmer die Möglichkeit selbst einen toten Huf zu trimmen. Dr. Strasser kontrollierte jedermanns Arbeit, erklärte Probleme des einzelnen Kadaverhufs und die Trimmtechnik dazu.

















A dissection showed a Hufmusters to analyze the situation in a hoof, and the reason for trimming.









We want to thank Dr. Strasser for this successful seminar and diligently for their dedication to the health of the horses and we hope that we can continue this work together for this goal.

How To Rebuild A Snowmobile Crankshaft

First Seminar of the Equine Science Academia Liberti

First Seminar of the Equine Science Academia Artivm Didacticvm Eqviorvm in Liberti was held in Hungary. y.

At the seminar we gave the practical part and the interaction with the horses through the lessons that inform the Academia, a lot of attention. For us it is very important that the seminars will be held in places where the horses directly from the excellent knowledge and training of the Academia Liberti can benefit members.

This is the herd that has benefited this time

This seminar were the priorities in the areas of horse dentistry and hoof care. The dean of the dentistry of the Academia Liberti, Natural Balance and Dentist Mouth-biomechanics specialist, Irén Aina Vassrusten Bastholm offers an outstanding presentation with excellent Edukation of horse dentistry.

And it could also take advantage of their horses work:

There was also space for one or two surprises in the mouth of a horse :

Most horses had stressed increases and transverse edges on all surfaces of the molars, which limit the lateral and anterior / posterior movement possibilities of the jaw. Your front teeth should be kept at a proper length and correct angle (8-10 degrees), and both incisors and molars had to be balanced in order to restore the full scope of biomechanical movement.

obtained after the treatment, most horses back the full range of motion, which means that they now have the option of her body in all directions zu bewegen und sein volles Potential zu nutzen, da dass vom den Kiefer abhängig ist.

Der zweite, sehr wichtige Teil dieses Seminars war die Hufpflege unter der Leitung und Darbietung des Dekans der Hufpflege, Natālija Aleksandrova .


Auszüge aus der Präsentation “Hufe der Wildpferde - sind sie anders?"

[...]
Nun zurück wieder zu den Umständen in denen sogar ein Huf eines Wildpferdes seine optimale Form verliert, und somit selbst ein Wildpferd nicht mehr gesund ist.

Ich glaube, dass es zwei Hauptfaktoren gibt, die sich schlecht auf die Gesundheit eines Wildpferdehufs auswirken, and thus on the whole body health.

First - human impact

Such examples are found in so-called semi-wild horses, often living on a limited area.

For example, the report "Laminitis in Przewalski horses half reserve" by Klaus-Dieter Budras and others, Institute of Veterinary Anatomy, Free University Berlin, 2001
According to the report:
- all horses originally came from a zoo, that means the optimum hoof was threatened by them already
- limited habitat - maximum number of plants, partially built pastures, limited movement
- the flock was only mares - that in turn means that they never received the necessary movement would they usually get at the wild games.

Such was the laminar connection with them already endangered by the non-optimum hoof form they had at least part of their lives. All the restrictions were in their habitat, the trigger for the development of poor inflammatory processes in their hooves and the subsequent inability to quickly repair itself.

[...]

something not so obvious, less direct influence was, by Brian Hampton observed in Kaimanawa wild horses and in his writing "Morphometric features of the feral horse foot "(Morphometric characteristics of a wild horse's foot) described

" Natural selection might play a role in the differences in the foot health and morphology can be observed between different populations of wild horses. While the Kaimanawa lead horses is a relatively protected life free from predators and with little pressure from food and water resources, have the wild horses of North Queensland, the attacks by dingoes and crocodiles, culling, which were run by people and strong cyclical droughts, the horses kills often endure. Larger variations from the ideal foot type can be better tolerated in the less exaction Environment Kaimanawa Mountains but that in extreme conditions, where survival is a major challenge, not working. "

people they put in such conditions, where there are no such strong rules of natural selection, so it was a bad hoof allow as far as not prepared for them too much discomfort and it will cause illness to live as a 'serene' life.

Demnach ist ein Grund von unserem Trim dem domestizierte Pferd dass du geben was die Natur einem Wildpferd gibt - solch eine optimale Hufform, die den Komfort in seinen Hufen sicherstellen würde, welcher nicht Gesundheitsprobleme in seinem Körper erzeugt. Auch wenn wir unser bestes geben, können wir unseren Pferden meist nicht den selben Lebensstil bieten, wie ihn die Wildpferde haben: die gleiche Menge an Bewegung auf unterschiedlichen Böden und die gleiche Art der Bewegung, die selbe Pflanzenvielfalt zum Fressen, Möglichkeit zur Paarung im Frühjahr, das Frühjahrsgras beabsichtigt eine hormonelle Reaktion im Körper um ihn für die Paarungszeit zu aktivieren, etc. Deswegen ist das korrekte Trimmen unter domestizierten Umständen of paramount importance for our horses. Correct trim - the trim is to also remove the tiny lever could harm the hoof, and thus the whole body. That is the reason why we often shorter corner braces, deeper concavity and more of such nuances in which it appears that the nature in Wilfpferdhufen not always about taking care need.

was a very interesting part of the seminar also the lecture on the historical section of the Dean of the history of the Academia Libert, Gergely Ferenc Szilagyi. The main focus of which was presented was the connection between old riding schools and secret societies (or lack thereof).

*** It was a very successful seminar which proudly bears the name of Academia Liberti and we look forward to more seminars. We are very grateful for the wonderful members of the Academia Liberti and their valuable participation in favor of the welfare of horses.
