AANHCP Booting Specialist Certification Program - Independent Study Student is required to fit 10 horses on the front feet using Swiss Horse Boots (may be done with or without the guidance of an AANHCP FI). Student takes and records all hoof measurements for booting and documents boot sizes selected, along with all modifications applied to the boots to make them fit properly.  Student submits copies of booting records to booting clinician for evaluation. Student documents problems and issues, obtains guidance from booting clinician as necessary and works through the process of fitting boots in the field. May have to boot these horses for free as part of their Training & Cert Program and even if they trash a few boots - it's good learning! Return to Overview of Booting Specialist Training Program Steps
