Story
Our story began in the heart of Maryland, where a team of world-renowned professors and engineers shared a deep passion for animals. What started as an academic exploration in the field of lameness research evolved into a commitment to revolutionize hoof healthcare.
We recognize the need for advanced technology in the field, and that's how our mission was born. Our roots in academia allowed us to approach hoof care from a unique engineering perspective. Our pioneering tools seamlessly merge traditional industry standards with the capabilities of the digital age.
We are a team with a vision to revolutionize hoof care and diagnosis. Our DIGI HOOF TESTER, a device that can measure the pain and pressure in the hooves of animals, is the result of over 25 years of groundbreaking research into locomotion abnormalities in various animals and disorders. It is the first of its kind to offer digital precision, accuracy, and reliability in detecting hoof problems.

We are thrilled to announce that the first production run of the DIGI HOOF TESTER is officially complete! This marks a significant milestone in our journey—a journey that began with a vision to revolutionize hoof care and has been fueled by the passion and dedication of our incredible team and early supporters.
From the initial concept to the design and testing phases, we have been on a mission to create a tool that not only meets but exceeds the needs of farriers, veterinarians, and hoof care professionals. The DIGI HOOF TESTER represents years of research, countless hours of development, and the collective wisdom of a wide range of industry experts who have been with us every step of the way.
To all the early pioneers who believed in our vision and joined us on this journey: thank you. Your trust and enthusiasm have been the driving force behind our success. You have helped shape our work into what it is today, and we could not have reached this point without your invaluable input and support.
As we celebrate this milestone, we are already looking ahead. We are excited to share that the development of the next generation—DHT2—is well underway. The DHT2 will build on the foundation we have laid with the original DIGI HOOF TESTER, offering even more advanced features and benefits that we believe will continue to set a new standard in hoof care.
We are committed to continuous improvement, and we know that your feedback is crucial to making the DHT2 the best it can be. If you are interested in staying up to date with our progress or learning more about what is coming next, we would love to hear from you. Your insights will help guide the next phase of our journey as we strive to create the most effective and reliable hoof testing technology available.
Thank you once again for being part of this revolution in hoof care. Together, we are making a real difference in animal welfare, and we are just getting started. Stay tuned for more updates, and if you have not yet, do not hesitate to reach out—we are excited to keep you posted on the next chapter!
