Requests:  0 Summary:  "The 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. The authors provide basic terms and anatomy, clearly illustrate the differences between healthy and unhealthy feet, discuss biomechanics and management concerns, and cover the causes, treatments, and prevention of commonly encountered problems, including laminitis, white line disease, and thrush."--Publisher's description.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 636.1 Ka Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Nonfiction 636.1 Ka item being mended Add Copy to MyList Mountain View P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 636.1 Ka Checked In Add Copy to MyList
