1Back to Work: How to Rehabilitate or Recondition Your Horse  Jul 20, 2008
Not what I expected. No real detail on rehab or reconditionong as it was based on case study and very vague in actual rehab & technique / plan /& assessment of ongoing levels of progression. Good points were that it gives owners of injured horses hope and support from reading some of the case studies that in many cases could have been the total end of the horse and rider.

5Excellent resource  Jun 19, 2008
This book does what it promises, which is to offer real-life care and rehabbing guidelines for a variety of common layup issues. I found it very well organized and have referred to it a few times as I re-hab my own horse. Great information to have all in one place!

3equine rehabilitation  May 25, 2008
Interesting and very clearly written, well laid out, yet with a personal touch. Covers tendons, ligaments, colics and the dreaded laminitis. Chapter 5 is interesting with tips from riders and experts. Covers a range of different case studies from a realistic and personal angle, with sound advice given for each scenario. A very useful reference book to have on you shelf.

5Nice book!  Jan 25, 2008
Great book. I learned quite a bit about caring for my horse after a tendon injury. There is so much confusion and misinformation out there and this book really clarifies things. It gave me clear guidelines when I started riding my mare again. It also made me feel better hearing other people's sadness and emotions over having a horse with similar injuries as I could really relate to it. I think the book is worth the money and it helped me quite a bit. There is also a section on bringing a horse back after colic surgery so that would be helpful to those in that situation.

5Excellent book  Sep 02, 2007
I liked the individual case histories that allowed me to compare with my horse. I wish I had found this book sooner.
