Understanding Equine Lameness by Les Sellnow,
By Mary McCrea (Langley, BC, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Understanding Equine Lameness (Horse Health Care Library) (Paperback)
Did you ever wonder why in any pre-purchase exam why your Veterinarian does certain things to inspect a horse, it's legs, it's muscles, it's movement?A full explanation, with all of the answers to "why" in this brief, yet fully explained booklet. There is conformation "dialog" of the pros and cons to each conformation blemish, and to purchasing a horse with such, for each discipline. Are you looking at a horse that is cow hocked or base narrow or toeing in or strait in the shoulder? AND, if you purchase such a horse, will that horse be successful performing in the discipline in which you would like to use it, and remain sound? Les Sellnow explains the strengths and weaknesses per discipline of all conformation blemishes, as well as why lameness can occur in these particular horses. Read on and enjoy a great and brief reference that should be in every home that buys and sells horses.
