5 comments about Professional Grooming and Care of the Racehorse.

1. I have received Professional Grooming And Care Of The Racehorse, and it was much much more than I expected it to be. The best literature on this topic that has ever been published. Hands down. Never have I seen an author put so much meticulous time, effort, and knowledge into creating an informative book. Everything you could possibly want to know about racehorses is just a few pages away.



2. For years there was a void in the horse book market about Racehorse Care. With Landers book the void is now filled. This book is unbelievable in its content. I've never read a better Ho -To book in my life on any subject as that of PROFESSIONAL GROOMING & CARE OF THE RACEHORSE. The reader will become a better all around horseperson after completion. I reccommend without a doubt



3. This book is an excellent sorce of information concerning both Thoroughbreds & Standardbreds,As an owner I now have a good insight as to the level of care my horses should get while on the racetrack , Thanks to Landers. I truly reccommend this book to anyone remotely connected with horseracing.



4. This book has got to be the best HorseCare book on the market. Easy to read and understand, Anyone connected with racehorses should read it. The author puts you in the place of a groom and indicates the important role of the groom in a racing stable. It is sad that the professional groom gets little recognition for their efforts but this book surely places the spotlight on their skills. Anyone can learn how to perform the skills stated in the book by following the step by step instructions and illustrations. A must have book for any horseowner,



5. here at last is a reference volume that deconstructs all the mysteries of how and why we work around horses. starting with the premise that the reader knows nothing, it goes step by step though every process that a groom would ever have to perform. although written for the racing industry, this book belongs in the tackroom of every owner, trainer and groom - regardless of discipline! constantly stressing safety for both horse and groom, it cannot help but impart a competent professionalism to those who chose to read it and practice these techniques.

1. This book gives your detialed information on every aspect of riding dressage. It shows clearly how your seat and hands influence the horse and how you can use all your aids in a clear way to guide your horse through the various training stages. If you are unsure how to coordinate your leg hand and seat to ask for a lateral bend this book will show you exactly how to ask for it and suggest ways to use your aids to get the desired result. If you are having a problem of any kind, Driving western or english this book will give you the tools to trace the source of the problem and then retrain to overcome it. It takes a bit of consintration to read as it is very step by step and packs a lot of info into a pharagraph. I think every serious rider should have a copy of this book It teaches classic time honored methods that are easy on the horse.

5 comments about A Horse Around the House: Second Edition.

1. We found "A Horse Around the House" extrememly useful as new horse owners. All the information you'll need to understand not only the makeup and characteristics of equines is here, along with subtle information about the nuances of horse personalities. We highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to know more about horses.



2. It is delightful to see the updated return of this compendious and clearly written one-stop shop for the new or experienced horse owner. The book became an almost instant classic upon its initial publication, and Pat Jacobson,a well respected teacher and trainer in the Hudson Valley region, has worked hard to incorporate the myriad advances in horse "housekeeping" that have taken place in the intervening two decades. While probably most useful to the first-time horse owner, the book is still an invaluable quick reference for anyone who does not wish to wade through piles of horse magazines to be reminded of the right treatment for thrush; what to do in hot weather, or the correct proportions of hay to grain. Elegant and humorous illustrations reinforce the readable text.



3. The 1999 edition of A Horse Around the House addresses every aspect of horse ownership in a clearly written and beautifully illustrated package. The author is technically correct on the details. Any person who has an interest in horses can learn from this book. It is a must for new, old and potential horse owners.



4. I plan on purchasing this book again! I give riding lessons etc. and find it a great book for young and old to read. My original seems to have disappeared (one of my young students probably coudn't bear parting with it!).I am waiting for the new addition to come out!



5. I have read several books about owning your first horse since my daughter (13) is as crazy about horses now as I was at her age. This is an execellent book and has become my reference guide as we seach for horses and a horse farm. From the basics, to the details, every aspect of horse ownership is touched on. Funny stories (I love the one about how horses get out of stalls) Drive home the point of safety in a huromous way. My 13 year old and her friend are both reading the book and have suprised many farm owners and horse owners with their knowledge in the questions they ask.
