Who does jobs like these, why do they do them, and how do they stay safe doing them? You'll find out in Dirty and Dangerous Jobs. The men and women who drive race cars get a lot of attention.

Download or read book Founder Only a Pit Stop written by Chuck Potter and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-09-19 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Founder, Only a Pit Stop, is based on Potter's direct and effective experience in working with foundered horses and provides guidelines on how to help your horse. In years of speaking with frustrated and concerned horse owners, Potter came to realize that many questions in the equine industry are often answered with treatments that prove to be ineffective--especially when dealing with foundered horses. The book covers some of the follies of an industry that--aside from veterinarians--requires no licensure or regulation of its workers, which leaves many horses and their owners vulnerable when a complex problem arises. Every horse owner must advocate for their horse, but horse owners are often faced with a daunting task when trying to sift through misinformation and outdated modalities. Founder, Only a Pit Stop, can help you save your horse's life and your bank account during what is often the most painful time in the horse's life.
