5.0 out of 5 stars a thorough education in hoof care, 25 Dec 2003

By A Customer

I bought this book to give me confidence in maintaining our ponies' hooves in between their professional trims. The real confidence comes with hands on practice but this book will tell you how to do it and much much more.

This book contains a huge amount of education in one volome. It explains why our ponies' hooves have been much improved since we gave up their shoes, and makes me very glad that we did. Its approach is wholistic, explaining how the condition of the feet affect the whole conformation of the animal and vice- versa. There is plenty of technical information and it is well researched and thorough.

It is a real education in hoof care and I am sure the way hoof care will develop over the next decade. With this in mind, I am also sure that many followers will jump on the bandwagon writing follow up books. However I assume Jaime Jackson will remain the key figure who has done the research and advocated this change in thinking. Therefore this book will always be the one to buy.

I personally would recommend it very strongly to anyone responsible for taking care of horses' feet. At the moment his ideas may be contraversial (though they seem like common sense to me) but my practical experience is that he is absolutely right and I hope in time they will become mainstream.

I hope everyone who buys this book will get at least as much out of it as I have.

I recommend this book to any horse owner/carer.This book really opened my eyes to the damage I was doing to my horses by having them shod,so much so,that I had my horses shoe`s removed.I now own a happy herd of barefoot horses,and I have never looked back.Through this book I have learned how to trim my own horses feet,and it has took me on the most exciting journey of my life.I truely feel this book will make the world a better place for our horses.

5.0 out of 5 stars Every Vet & Farrier should read this book, 27 April 2006

By	Angie Davies (SE England) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Horse Owner's Guide to Natural Hoof Care (Paperback)

Barefoot is best.
If you love your horse then please buy this book. Not only is the book a fascinating read but a real eye opener to the damage hoof clamps (shoes) do to our friend's feet . The book actually shows us how to trim the hoof ourselves.

This book is a must for all horse owners. Not only do shoes damage the horse (in may ways) but are a serious H&S risk from accidents (slipping on hard roads, broken bones from kicking accidents, treading on human feet).

Calling all farrier's, please read this book, us horse mad folk need you start our transition to barefoot. There is a growing market for this, just like natural health care with humans (health food industry is growing rapidly). You need to change too.
