It was an honour to be invited by fellow HTA member Dr, Jose Borkert from Chile to attend the first Chilean conference on lameness in cattle. It was a three day event. We had research for 62 people in attendance including veterinary students,
veterinarians and hoof trimmers. We did wet labs,  shared ideas, and enjoy great company and food. It was a privilege to present the HTA toolbox and discuss how we were building our trade. Cheers.
