Everything you need to know about your horses' hooves
With the aid of over 1,000 photographs, internationally renowned
farrier Rob van Nassau looks at every aspect of hoof care and describes
in detail more than 50 common foot problems.
The first section of the book looks at the foot from inside and out. It
describes how to recognize good and faulty shoeing, explains the mechanics of
the foot in motion, discusses foot balance, shows the anatomy of the foot and
limb alignment, and offers advice on how to keep the hooves healthy.
The second part of the book takes an in-depth look at the many common
ailments and conditions that affect hoof care and shoeing. Each problem is
clearly illustrated and accompanied by a straight forward description of the
problem, its cause and treatment.
This book is somewhat technical. |
