At upcoming shows a point of emphasis for SHOW DQPs will be proper shoeing.  Measuring tapes will be on site and used to confirm proper heel to toe ratio compliance.  “We are committed to enforcing the HPA and have been very encouraged at the progress made within in the industry.  In our enforcement of the HPA we feel strongly about shoeing regulations,” said Co-Compliance Coordinator Dr. Steve Mullins.
