Awesome book! Great detail and in depth analysis of the hoof and common problems/diseases associated with the hoof. I just graduated with a degree in Equine Studies and in my first job was finding that my education left me missing pieces on hoof care and this book is technical enough that I felt like I am getting college level information to use.

This is THE best book on hoof care I have read, and I’ve read a LOT of them. This is written clearly with lots of ‘memory joggers’ so the non-technical/professional person can understand and remember things. The photos are full color, very clear, with explanations and little arrows pointing to what is being explained so you know what you are looking for.

THIS is an AWESOME book! GREAT pictures-and really addresses the barefoot vs shoes issues with good science, observance and support either way to make a horse comfortable and functional.
