Download or read book Confessions of a Horseshoer written by Ron Tatum and published by University of North Texas Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Confessions of a Horseshoer offers a close and personal look at the mind-set of a professional horseshoer (farrier) who also happens to be a college professor. The book, an ironic and playful view of the many unusual animals (and people) Ron Tatum has encountered over thirty-seven years, is nicely balanced between straightforward presentation, self-effacing humor, and lightly seasoned wisdom. It captures the day-to-day life of a somewhat cantankerous old guy, who has attitude and strong opinions. Throughout the book, Tatum ponders the causes that led him into the apparently opposing worlds of horseshoeing, with its mud, pain, and danger, and the bookish life of a college professor. He tells the reader that it is his hope that writing the book will help him understand this apparent paradox between the physical and the mental. Tatum provides a detailed description of the horseshoeing process, its history, and why horses need shoes in the first place. The reader will learn about the dangers of shoeing horses in “Injuries I Have Known,” in which Tatum describes one particular self-inflicted injury that he claims no other horseshoer has ever, or will ever, experience. “Eight Week Syndrome” demonstrates the close, often therapeutic, relationship between the horseshoer and his or her customers. Tatum relates the story of an old Wyoming cowboy who could talk with horses, and consistently cure their injuries, lameness, and other physical problems after the veterinarians had given up. The humor in the chapters on chickens and rabbits will entertain any reader, as well as the sections on various dogs, ducks, llamas, goats, flies, and a sexually disoriented pig. Readers of western life and lovers of horses will find Confessions of a Horseshoer an informative, quirky, and delightful work full of humor, attitude, and off-beat insight.

Download or read book The Essential Hoof Book written by Susan Kauffmann and published by Trafalgar Square Books. This book was released on 2018-01-01 with total page 933 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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. Along the way, readers are given activities to help them better analyze and understand the most important aspects of equine hoof health, such as hoof balance, depth of sole, and point of breakover. Easy–to–follow language, over 400 full–color photographs, and do–it–yourself exercises promise to empower horse owners and caretakers of all experience levels with the tools they need to accurately assess hoof health and keep their horses as sound and happy as possible.

Download or read book The Principles of Horseshoeing II written by Doug Butler and published by Butler Pub & Tools. This book was released on 1985-01-01 with total page 567 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A complete reference on farrier science & craftsmanship--one of the best modern books on the subject. The author is not only an experienced farrier & teacher, but a writer & scholar as well. Through a step-by-step approach & minimum of technical jargon, Butler, who has taught farriery & horse science courses at several universities, manages to be sophisticated enough for the student & fundamental enough for the horse owner. Part one includes horsemanship & horse care, anatomy & biomechanics of the equine foot, trimming procedures & pleasure horseshoeing. The focus of part two is specialized needs of performance horses. While at first glance, the book may seem to be of more value to a farrier, Butler has, in fact, given horse owners criteria by which to judge their farriers. Butler's point is that the serious farrier needs to present himself as a professional. The book has over 1,000 illustrations & is written in a very readable manner. Also recently reprinted, Butler's STUDY GUIDE & WORKBOOK (ISBN 0-916992-05-5) ($24.95 plus 3.00 S/H) is designed for use with P-II. It can be used for self-study or in a formal class setting. Working the exercises will prepare one for farrier certification examinations. To order: Butler Publishing & Tools, P.O. Box 1390, La Porte, CO 80535.
