Horse Hoof Anatomy

Action Point: Put up horse hoof anatomy charts and diagrams in my barn.

Rational: I personally find horse hoof anatomy to be difficult, as it is so detailed. By having a visual (and physical) chart I will retain more knowledge and understanding, as it will be something I will look at daily.

Steps to Achievement: To achieve this goal I will print off the charts/ diagrams, laminate them, and hang them in the barn in a high traffic area (I will also place a copy in my binder to help me with further assignments).

Charts and Diagrams:

SWIPER

Action Point: Make a SWIPER poster and put it in my barn.

Rational: Having a SWIPER poster in my barn means that I will have a daily reminder of what it means, therefore I will be more prepared in the case of an emergency, as it will be memorized. Even if I don’t read the sign every time I go into the barn, my sub-conscious mind will make note of it.

Steps to Achievement: In order to achieve this goal I will need to make a neat and clear to read sign, print it off, and hang it in my barn where it can be easily seen by myself as well as others.

Poster Example–

S scan the horse (and environment)
W what’s wrong?
I immediate needs (prioritize)
P plan
E execute
R reassess and repeat
