Download or read book The Natural Stallion written by Lesley Skipper and published by . This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: STALLIONS ARE perceived by many people, both inside and outside the horse world, as aggressive and difficult to manage, and in some cases downright dangerous. Comparatively few people have the opportunity to observe stallions in anything like natural surroundings; even fewer will have had the opportunity to study how they interact with their family group in the wild or in free-ranging situations, when left to get on with their lives without human interference. So for the most part people in the horse world will find it difficult to separate the true nature of stallions from the preconceived ideas and expectations of people who have only ever experienced stallion behaviour in very restricted circumstances. Not only are there virtually no books dealing with stallions other than from the point of view of stud management, there are also many contradictory opinions and conflicting advice being offered on the many equestrian forums to be found on the internet. Much of the advice given, and many of the opinions offered, are based on assumptions and information that may not necessarily be accurate, and which in many cases add to the distorted views so many people have about stallions.This book encourages people to view stallions in a more sympathetic light, and to understand that a stallion is still a horse, and has much the same needs and priorities as any other horse, albeit with a few 'extras' which need to be taken into account in training and management. It demonstrates that for the most part it is the prevalent management practices which create problems in managing and handling stallions, rather than the inherent nature of stallions themselves. The book shows how stallions behave when allowed to live as naturally as a domestic situaA--tion permits, and to perform as many of their natural behaviours as possible within the constraints of domesticaA--tion. It gives practical advice on the training and management of stallions, as well as much valuable information on what to do when problems arise. It will be invaluable for anyone involved with horses, but especially those wanting to understand more about the true nature of stallions, and how to keep them as naturally as possible.

This book was released on 2010-11-11 with total page 1424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Covering many different diagnostic tools, this essential resource explores both traditional treatments and alternative therapies for conditions that can cause gait abnormalities in horses. Broader in scope than any other book of its kind, this edition describes equine sporting activities and specific lameness conditions in major sport horse types, and includes up-to-date information on all imaging modalities. This title includes additional digital media when purchased in print format. For this digital book edition, media content may not be included. Cutting-edge information on diagnostic application for computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging includes the most comprehensive section available on MRI in the live horse. Coverage of traditional treatment modalities also includes many aspects of alternative therapy, with a practical and realistic perspective on prognosis. An examination of the various types of horses used in sports describes the lameness conditions to which each horse type is particularly prone, as well as differences in prognosis. Guidelines on how to proceed when a diagnosis cannot easily be reached help you manage conditions when faced with the limitations of current diagnostic capabilities. Clinical examination and diagnostic analgesia are given a special emphasis. Practical, hands-on information covers a wide range of horse types from around the world. A global perspective is provided by a team of international authors, editors, and contributors. A full-color insert shows thermography images. Updated chapters include the most current information on topics such as MRI, foot pain, stem cell therapy, and shock wave treatment. Two new chapters include The Biomechanics of the Equine Limb and its Effect on Lameness and Clinical Use of Stem Cells, Marrow Components, and Other Growth Factors. The chapter on the hock has been expanded substantially, and the section on lameness associated with the foot has been completely rewritten to include state-of-the-art information based on what has been learned from MRI. Many new figures appear throughout the book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When owning, training, riding, and showing horses, there is a certain “look” to which one aspires. World-class “turnout”—a horse in peak condition, perfectly coiffed and luminous with health, outfitted with gleaming and well-fit tack appropriate for his sport—can take your breath away. And while it can certainly play a significant role in a competitive rider’s success, it is just as appealing to have any horse “groomed to the nines,” whether he’s headed for an afternoon lesson or just out on the trail. Achieving this superior look is not just about clean tack, shiny brass, spotless stockings, or perfect braids. The most important steps are in the day-to-day nitty-gritty of grooming and caring for the horse: noticing “something not-quite-right” about the way the horse looks or moves before it becomes “something wrong”; brushing and combing and trimming a little every day so the horse’s skin and coat remain healthy; knowing how to prepare a horse properly for training, and how to cool him down afterward. Now, two of the best professional grooms in the business share their trade secrets, with over 1200 color photographs accompanying the ultimate modern-day guide for all riders who want their horses to look and feel their best.

Book excerpt: Finally, a comprehensive collection of world-renowned equine expert Linda Tellington-Jones' healing equine bodywork and training exercises, for use both on the ground and in the saddle. In one fabulously illustrated book, those new to Linda's approach are provided with a clear, step-by-step introduction to the Tellington Method, while those familiar with her work finally have the ultimate go-to reference. The book is divided into three parts: Part One briefly explains the background of the Tellington Method and then discusses the reasons for unwanted behavior and poor attitude in horses. Part Two, arranged alphabetically, contains a compendium of 72 common behavioral, training and health issues, many of which horse people face on a daily basis. In this A to Z format, from Aggressive to Other Horses to Weaving, Linda discusses the possible reasons for these behaviors or problems and offers conventional methods of solving these challenges, as well as training solutions using the Tellington Method. Part Three presents—for the first time in one volume—the complete body of work that up the Tellington Method: the Tellington TTouches, Ground Exercises, and Ridden Work. At the end of this section, there is also a detailed case study, which includes 49 photographs showing every step along the way to successfully teaching your horse to load.
