5Awesome!  Dec 04, 2007
Excellent book with heaps and heaps of info on lameness and how to treat the problems. Has charts in it as well for you to score your own horses lameness. Has other health complications listed that can cause lameness and syptoms of lameness. I refer to it often. Layed out in section eg: hoof, lower leg, upper leg etc etc so you can go straight to the chapter you wish to look at. Well set out and easy to read. I highly recommend it!

5Great book for the money  May 24, 2007
This book is easy to understand, and describes lameness in easy to understand language. Lots of photos and exrays that explain what they are talking about. I highly recommend this book!

5Lameness Book Packed with Useful Information  May 24, 2007
The book "Lameness: Recognizing and Treating the Horse's Most Common Ailment", is a well-written and informative book. The knowledge presented is accessible to the average horse person, and very extensive, covering just about every possible cause of equine lameness in the legs, hooves, and other parts of a horse's anatomy.


The book also covers methods of identifying different types of lameness, recognizing gait abnormalities, managing diseases, treating wounds, hoof care, shoeing, and available therapies, medications, and veterinary care. Veterinary therapies and surgical procedures are discussed, such as joint lavage, arthroscopic surgery, and the application of casts.
