Equine Distal Limb Anatomy In Practice: A Dissection Based Short Course

Description

Wednesday 4th February 2026
9am - 5pm

Harper Adams University

Newport
TF10 8NB

This course has been designed for delegates at all levels of experience and involvement with equine husbandry, management and rehabilitation.  

Develop your anatomical knowledge in a professional clinical lab setting with our Equine Dissection Short Course, delivered by experienced academic staff at Harper Adams University. Designed for equine professionals and informed owners, this course will enhance your understanding of anatomy in direct relation to functional biomechanics, health, performance and welfare.

No matter your background, from owners to veterinary professionals, all delegates will benefit from the applied, evidence-based approach.

This is a rare opportunity to study equine anatomy in detail, hands-on, in a supportive teaching environment. The knowledge gained will translate immediately into improved clinical reasoning, informed decision making, and better outcomes for the horses in your care.

The day will consist of a blend of theoretical, classroom-based learning alongside hands on practical experience in our clinical labs, putting theory into practice. This course will cover:

  • Anatomy and function of the distal (lower) limb
  • Pre and Rehabilitation of the Equine Lower Limb
  • Practical lab-based dissection (cadaver session)
  • Evidence based review
  • Case based discussions 

Intended learning outcomes:

  • Identify key anatomical structures of the equine lower limb
  • Explain their functional relationships in biomechanics
  • Increased awareness of current evidence
  • Recognise common findings and abnormalities present within the body and their influence on performance outcomes
