Dr David Marlin interviews Farrier Ben Benson at ACPAT
Stable Science from Dr David Marlin's Animalweb
10/27/24 • 29 min
Dr David Marlin took the opportunity to catch up with his old friend and colleague, farrier Ben Benson, at the annual Acpat seminar at Leamington Spa in October 2024.
Ben Benson AWCF Farrier presented at the conference 'The Farrier's role in influencing equine posture and injury prevention'.
They discuss the role of the farrier and how they can work with other professionals to determine the best course of action for any horse - given their unique perspective. How can a horse owner/rider get all these experts working together.
Why is the farrier industry in decline, and what are the problems, causes and concerns for the industry? And what are the price differences between shoeing a horse in the UK and abroad? Farriers are being forced to shoe high numbers in the UK, and this is having a detrimental effect on their bodies, and they are struggling to make ends meet.
They even discuss barefoot and why this topic is so divisive, and really it should be about welfare and what is best for the horse at that point in their life given; breed, age, condition, care, sport and whether it actually benefits them or not!
You'll be able to watch the interview video here on Animalweb or listen to the podcast.

In these podcasts, Dr Gillian Tabor reviews her highlights from the International Canine and Equine Locomotion Conference (ICEL9) held in Utrecht in August 2023.
All the recognisable names from biomechanics research were there, which makes for a very exciting meeting to be at. If you have ever written an essay or a dissertation that refers to equine movement, you will have referenced at least one of these experts - Hilary Clayton, Rene van Weeren, Filipe Serra Braganza, Lars Roepstorff, Thilo Pfau, Marie Rhodin or Russell Mackechnie-Guire – that were there this year.
On the first two days, there was the opportunity to listen to keynotes and presentations of the latest research, and on the third day, there were practical sessions based on both canine and equine locomotion.
Dr Gillian Tabor was able to present two abstracts, one on posture assessment and one on canine flyball.
There are many study presentations that she doesn't mention, so take a look at the published abstracts for more details. These can be found on the Dr David Marlin website.
