5.0 out of 5 stars Every horse owner should own this book, June 22, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: No Foot, No Horse: Foot Balance, the Key to Soundness and Performance (Hardcover)

This book shows the horse owner how to look at a horses foot and know if the farrier has balanced the foot to its structure. It educates the horse owner on how a unbalanced foot causes lamness,sorness,wrong muscle development and movement problems. This book can save the horse owner many frustrating hours thinking that their horse has training problems when the problem is an unbalanced foot.

4.0 out of 5 stars understanding your horses foot, July 16, 2000

This review is from: No Foot, No Horse: Foot Balance, the Key to Soundness and Performance (Hardcover)

This book is an excellent guide if you would like to know more about corrective shoeing and the benefits it has. It was very informative, and had many pictures that were a big help in understanding the concepts they were explaining. I would have liked for the book to discuss nutritional or supplemental ways of establishing a healthier foot, but it was only mentioned briefly, and without much depth. Overall I felt the book was well worth the read if you are interested in correcting lameness through remedial shoeing.

5.0 out of 5 stars No Foot, No Horse: Foot Balance, Key to Soundness & ..., January 22, 2002

This review is from: No Foot, No Horse: Foot Balance, the Key to Soundness and Performance (Hardcover)

I thought my farrier was doing a good job until I read this book. My new farrier looked at the book carefully when I showed him photos,drawings, and descriptions of what I thought was wrong with my horses' feet. He wants a copy for himself. It's the best book I've seen on the subject, and my horse library is large... Get it.
