The Essential Hoof Book
The Complete Modern Guide to Horse Feet — Anatomy, Care and Health, Disease Diagnosis and Treatment
£34.95
IN STOCKThe equine hoof is a complex marvel of natural engineering, built to withstand tremendous forces and able to adapt to an astonishing range of environmental conditions. It also changes daily—for better or for worse—in response to external and internal factors.
Few horse owners have the opportunity to acquire a deep understanding of the hoof, which limits their ability to advocate on their horses' behalf and make informed decisions about hoof care and management. This book is the first resource of its kind to combine the most current and useful information available, gleaned from the research and wisdom of top hoof experts around the world, with a unique 'hands-on' approach.
Reviews for The Essential Hoof Book
A great resource for all things hoof-related, The Essential Hoof Book truly is essential to have in any barn.
Equine Journal
Hardcover and spiral-bound, which make it delightful to use as a reference book (why are they not all like that?). With such a wide range of useful information, this is the type of book that is a must-have for all hoof care professionals (farriers/trimmers/vets) … [and] every single horseowner
The Horse's Hoof
Once you’ve read The Essential Hoof Book, you will have a much deeper understanding of the horse’s hoof and how to keep it healthy and sound in ways you perhaps never thought of—or thought possible.
Gene Ovnicek GPF-RMF (Guild of Professional Farriers - Registered Master Farrier)
What I particularly love about this book is that it does not preach one ‘right’ way to treat hooves instead, The Essential Hoof Book teaches readers how hooves can be managed rather than ‘corrected.’ The Essential Hoof Book needs to be on every horse owner’s bookshelf
