Horse Owner-s Veterinary Handbook

5 stars (Excellent health reference ) - I have several books in my library which cover equine health but this is certainly the most comprehensive. The book is set out in chapters which cover the major systems of the horse - respiratory, circulatory, nervous, reproductive etc Each chapter then starts with a complete explaination of that system and follows with an alphabetic listing of the problems or diseases. There are plenty of clear photos and diagrams and there are two further indexes to help you to find what you are looking for or to cross-reference information. I would certainly recommend this as the book to get, especially if you can only afford to get one health reference book. 5 stars (horse owner's veterinary handbook) - This book will come in very handy and is very simple to understand. I love this book 5 stars (It's a MUST have) - Very informative ... and in plain old english. ...

Dog Owner-s Home Veterinary Handbook

5 stars (Excellent Book!!!) - Wow, excellent book!!! I have had four German shepherds altogether, (now currently three), and I was able to find very helpful information inside this book. I don't know how I've been without it all these years. Of course, it won't replace a veterinarian; however, it does give you a heads-up on what is going on & what a possible remedy would be. So far, it's been very accurate! 5 stars (This book is super!) - I can't begin to say how often this book has come in handy. I have had to look things up for my three dogs as well as numerous friends and their pets. It gives me peace of mind in some cases and has me rush my pets to the vet in others. It's like having a vet right there in the house with you. I love it so much I'm getting more as Christmas gifts for my friends with multiple dogs. 5 stars (Great resource for canine mommies and daddies) - This book is chock full with useful, easy to understand information. I am not a vet or a vet tech and I find this book very "layperson" friendly. It discusses all aspects of the dogs well being, physically and emotionally and also provides links to veterinary organizations and their websites. One of my favorite sections of the book is the step by step guide to trimming a dog's nails and how to avoid the dreadful "quick" vein and also how to take care of a boo-boo if one occurs. I highly recommend this book to anyone with a canine family member! ...

What Your Horse Wants You to Know - What Horses- -Bad- Behavior Means- and How to Correct It

5 stars (This is a Book for everyone....Teaching by Asking !!!) - "You can`t make a horse do anything... but you can teach by asking and listening to horse response!!. This book will be an important management tool for future succes with your horse and what is best for the horses is, in the long run, best for you, to. Respect, Trust, and Dominance!!!. No podras hacer que tu caballo haga de todo... ????Pero vas a poder ense?#arle preguntando y escuchando las respuestas del caballo!!. Este libro va a ser una importante herramienta para el exito futuro con tu caballo, y aquello que es mejor para los caballos, va a ser en el largo recorrido, mejor para ti tambien. ??????Respeto, confianza, y Dominio!!!. 5 stars (Sound advice from one of the best teachers.) - I have known Gincy Bucklin via cyberspace for quite a few years. We were fellow subscribers to the Horseman list until it fell into disuse, and when Gincy started her own list (Riding With Confidence) I subscribed immediately. Gincy is one of the best and most knowledgeable teachers of riding that I know, and she not only has years of experience behind her, but also specializes in helping timid, fearful and/or aging riders who have for some reason lost their confidence. She is uncanny at figuring out physical, mental and emotional problems and resolving rider error and is highly sympathetic to those who are having problems with riding or their horses, so it really came as no surprise that she would write a book to bridge the gap between horse and rider. This teacher turned writer has greater works yet to come, and this book is the first of such. It is in encyclopedic form, and easy to read and comprehend. Bravo, Gincy. 5 stars (You will like this one. . .) - All horsehandlers will appreciate the way Gincy has blended tried-and-true oldtime training methods with the best of the new ideas from Swift, Tellington-Jones, Parelli and others to help anyone create a safe, horse-friendly, stress-free stable environment...

The United States Pony Club Manual of Horsemanship - Basics for Beginners-D Level

5 stars (Susan Harris- Multitalented Communicator) - There is a saying that a picture is worth a thousand words. Susan Harris is not only a gifted artist ; drawing her explanations of concepts she is relating ; she draws pictures with her words, and for anyone lucky enough to attend one of her clinics , she draws explanations with body language. I am fortunate to have Sue as my friend and mentor for 30+ years & have told her often that "She could read the phone book to you & You'd never lose interest". She is also a gifted horsewoman & teacher. She posseses an ability to locate the crux of a lack of understanding & with empathy for both horse & rider guides them to a solution. If I had to limit my horse library to just a few books, her USPC manuels would be the first chosen. They are a wealth of information on all aspects of horsemanship , for every level of horseman , of any age. Her choice of words combined with her own illustrations gives very clear & interesting information.Sue stresses empathy for your horse & safety issues in every topic -2 basics to have ingrained in anyone who wishes to be around horses. I have recommended these books to all who share the "addiction" to horses with me. 5 stars (very good book to start with) - I advise anyone young who is seriously interested in horses to start with this book. I've been riding all my life and think this is a great book to start with and it is very informative. 5 stars (Very informative) - An excellent book, covers the basics well ...

How Your Horse Wants You to Ride- Starting Out- Starting Over

5 stars (Want bang, not bucks?) - This book is one of the best "buys" I have made in that the information is so minutely expressed in detail and the value page for page is incredible. This is a reference book; not all are, some you read and say "Oh, OK, got that" and put it on the shelf or pass it on..this book you know you will keep to refer back to for that niggling little point about that annoying thing you just can't figure out about the ride/ lesson. Not the best title, though I am a big advocate of riding in harmony ( and I GET that this all leads to that ), it misleads slightly in that what you are really getting is much, much more than just what the horse wants; you are getting almost overload information on yourself (not a one sit read). Just a few dated personal references strewn about, could have more photos, but not a real fault because if you can read ( ! ), and want a lot for the investment, this book is loaded with text and all of it valuable info. I have slightly better, lighter reads,easier to digest, but again, the info is so vast here, details so good, it is just worth every penny if that is really what you want. LOVE that it is hardbound as it WILL be around on my shelf a LONG time. Not the only book you should get, but worth it for sure. 5 stars (Worth it's weight in gold) - Rarely do "how to" books come along that not only tell a person what to do but also why it works to do it that way. How Your Horse Wants You To Ride is one of those rare books. Bucklin not only provides step-by-step methods for developing and enhancing riding and horsemanship skills, but clearly and engagingly explains why those steps work. Her explanations and instructions are easy to read and understand, and photos and illustrations provide detail. All that's needed for success is a willingness to learn. If a rider cares to become more than just a passenger on a horse's back, this is the book to have. With over 400 illustrated pages, small font and pithy writing,...
