Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Miniature horses of the Falabella breed are notable for their small stature and unusual features. This breed of horse is extremely small in comparison to others. The Falabella family of Argentina, led by Patrick Newtall, is credited with developing the Falabella horse via years of selective breeding of miniature horses on the Falabella Ranch. Originally selected for their small stature, miniature horses rarely exceed 8 hands (32 inches or 81 cm) in height at the withers. - The calm and trusting nature of Falabella horses makes them ideal for use in therapeutic riding programs or as companion animals. Due to their diminutive stature, they are rarely put to use for strenuous labor or prolonged riding. - Because of their size and distinct look, these horses have found widespread employment in the field of showmanship and as companion animals. Note that the "Falabella" designation applies only to miniature horses of a certain breed and lineage that can be traced back to the Falabella family in Argentina. Falabella horses are not a true breed of horse in the conventional sense, but rather a distinct lineage within the small horse species. The Falabella family of Argentina is responsible for the initial selective breeding program that gave rise to the breed. These horses are notable for their little stature and peculiar features. The Falabella horse is a subset of the tiny horse breed, which includes several diverse varieties. - To clarify, tiny horses, in general, are little horses that are bred for their minuscule size, often standing under 8 hands (32 inches or 81 cm) tall at the withers. However, the Falabella family's breeding efforts have left a distinctive mark on the miniature horse breed, and this lineage is known as the Falabella bloodline. There are unique aspects and traits that set these horses apart from other tiny horses. There are many different breeds of horses, each with its own set of quirks and qualities, if you're interested. Among the many types of horses, the Arabian, Thoroughbred, Quarter Horse, Appaloosa, and Andalusian are among the most popular. Each of these breeds has its own history, usage, and physical traits.

Download or read book Hmong American Concepts of Health Healing and Conventional Medicine written by Dia Cha and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America's healthcare system in the twenty-first century faces a variety of pressures and challenges, not the least of which is that posed by the increasingly multicultural nature of American society itself. Large numbers among the Hmong, immigrants from the landlocked Asian nation of Laos, continue to prefer their own ancient medical traditions. That these Hmong Americans should continue to adhere to a tradition of folk medicine, rather than embrace the modern healthcare system of America, poses questions that must be answered. This book takes up the task of examining Hmong American concepts of health, illness and healing, and looks at the Hmong American experience with conventional medicine. In so doing, it identifies factors that either obstruct or enable healthcare delivery to the Hmong, specifically a target sample of Hmong Americans resident in Colorado. Drawing upon scientific methods of data collection, the research reveals attitudes currently held by a group of American citizens toward health and medicine which run the gamut from the very modern to those which have prevailed in the highlands of Southeast Asia for centuries.
