Learn to Fit, Modify, and Apply Composite Shoes with Confidence
This hands-on course is designed specifically for horse owners who want to learn how to properly select, modify, and apply composite (plastic and hybrid) shoes. Whether you're supporting a rehab case or simply want to improve your horse’s comfort and soundness, this course will give you the skills and confidence to apply glue-on shoes effectively.
What You’ll Learn:
- How to assess your horse’s hoof and movement to select the right composite shoe
- Step-by-step hoof prep to ensure optimal adhesion and longevity
- Techniques for modifying shoes to add breakover, heel support, or improve fit
- Proper application methods using different types of adhesives

Course Focus:
The most important factor in a successful 4-5 week shoeing cycle is proper shoe fit—a snug, supportive fit that matches the hoof shape and addresses your horse’s needs. This is closely followed by thorough hoof prep to ensure the adhesive bonds correctly, and a clean, precise application to lock everything in place.
Whether you're new to glue-on shoes or looking to sharpen your skills, this course offers real-world, practical training that you can take straight to the barn.
