This book was released on 2017-07-19 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Training and Treatment of the Horse In connection with the above subject I would like to call the attention of the reader to one more fact, which is well known to all who handle hors es, and that is that the herse, especially in the summer time, is constantly afflicted with a sore back caused by the galling of the saddle.' When the sore is discovered the owner's first step is to apply some remedy to heal the sore, but he pays no attention whatever to the cause of the sore. The cause is usually found in the driver. When he stops the horse he jumps onto the shafts on one side or the other and then to the ground. When he gets ready to start again he jumps onto the shafts and then to his seat. The average weight of the driver is from one hundred twenty five-to one hundred sixty pounds. Is it to be won dered at that when this weight is thrown on the shafts on one side or the other, w1th the ordinary harness as it is usually used, that the horse's back can be anything else but sore? The part of the back covered by the saddle is usually very tender, = caused by constant perspiration in the summer time and no opportunity given to dry out by reason of the air. Being excluded by the saddle; Now, this tender part receives the worst treat_5. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2015-07-27 with total page 794 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on the Care, Treatment, and Training of the English Race Horse, Vol. 1 of 2: In a Series of Rough Notes It may appear strange to my readers, and I confess it has appeared so to me, that, among the numerous works which, from time to time, have issued from the press, on the nature and general treatment of Horses, no treatise should have been given on the training of the English Race-horse. Such an omission, I am convinced, could not have arisen from an unbelief in the importance attached to the subject; it may, I think, be rather attributed to a conscious deficiency in practical knowledge among authors, who, in other respects, might be competent to the task. The training of race-horses at the establishments at Newmarket, and at various other well-conducted race-horse stables, has long since been ranked as a science, and it may, perhaps, be said to have attained perfection. Yet the public are comparatively unacquainted with the manner in which that noble animal, the race-horse, is brought into the admirable condition in which he is exhibited at the post.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Horse, Its Treatment in Health and Disease, Vol. 1: With a Complete Guide to Breeding Training and Management The object of the editor in preparing this work has been to set out in one compact whole some of the most useful information relating to the horse. The origin and development of the horse, his varieties, his breeding, training, and management, in health and disease, with other cognate subjects, have each in turn been considered. To render the book more intelligible and useful to the reader, each group of diseases is preceded by a brief reference to the anatomy and physiology of the parts therein concerned, and the whole has been written in the simplest possible language consistent with a clear enunciation of the subject. Having regard to the extent and variety of the matter to be dealt with, it was necessary to seek the co-operation of outside help, and I have much pleasure in saying how readily this was accorded by my friends Sir George Brown, C.B., Dr. Fleming, Professor Shave, Mr. Harold Leeney, Mr. Hunting, Mr. Vero Shaw, Mr. Lupton, Mr. Malcolm, and others, and how much I owe them my grateful acknowledgments. The greatest care has been taken in the selection and production of the very large series of illustrations which will be found in this book. Of these many are in colours, embracing portraits of prize-winning animals of the leading varieties, and drawings from nature illustrating anatomical and pathological subjects.

The appetite was impaired and capricious, although there was but little loss Of flesh. On walking the animal out of the stable, considerable languor and listlessness were evinced, and the slightest exertion produced great fatigue. On his being returned to the stable he immediately placed himself in the position to urinate, and, after making several ineffectual attempts, a few ounces of urine were voided, having a very peculiar smell, and being somewhat viscid. In this case the urine had a light amber colour, and was clear. It gave an acid reaction to test-paper, and its specific gravity was It did not contain albumen, but when examined microscopically was found to contain a large amount of oxalate of lime, in the form of bright octahedral crystals. The presence Of oxalic acid in the urine is believed to arise out of some defect in the digestion and assimilation Of the food.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Horse, Its Treatment in Health and Disease, Vol. 8: With a Complete Guide to Breeding, Training and Management The paces of the horse cannot well be understood without reference to the means by which locomotion is brought about. In the anatomical portion Of this work frequent reference will be found to the origin and insertion Of muscles, and the attachments of tendons and ligaments. Attention is called to the fixed points upon which muscles act by the shortening of their body or belly. The stimulus of the will or other agents put in action a force which causes a contraction Of muscular fibre, resulting in approximation of the fixed points of origin and insertion. A familiar example of this action is seen when the human biceps, by its bellying or contraction, changes the contour of the limb and brings the hand to the point of the Shoulder. The horse may be Viewed as a living mechanism, a series of pulleys and levers attached to bones, and having the ground for a fulcrum.

This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Practical Guide to the Breaking and Training of the Young Horse My object is to instruct my readers as briefly, and as plainly as the subject will admit of, in the best method of training and riding young horses. The horse, by nature, is a gentle and complying creature, and resists rather from fear than obstinacy bearing this in mind, we must always endeavour to assure him, and give him confidence; and therefore, the colt cannot be treated with too much kindness, accompanied by caution and firm ness. The groom can do something to assist the rider in this respect, for much of the horse's training depends upon his treatment in the stable; the person also to whom his train ing is entrusted, should be accustomed to horses, and not one that would be frightened at every start they may make, for many who are not aware of the natural timidity of colts, alarm them by their own fears, in the way they approach them; and as they soon perceive these fears, they will take the earliest advantage of them, by endeavouring to prevent any one from coming near them for, the horse is very sagacious, even when young, and watches every movement about him, and will soon distinguish fear from firmness in his attendant, or rider; therefore he cannot be deceived by assumed boldness, or by angry words but, on the contrary, if you treat him with kindness, and when you touch him, lay the hand on him with firmness, and speak gently to him, he will soon become attached and friendly, which is the first thing you should attempt to secure, since those he is most familiar with and accustomed to, he will be the least alarmed at, and will have the most confidence in. The fewer persons about him the better. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Horse, Its Treatment in Health and Disease, Vol. 2: With a Complete Guide to Breeding, Training and Management The Shetland - There is not much to be written about the Shetland pony that is not generally known, but it is satisfactory to be able to assert that these useful little horses are making steady headway in the south of England. Possibly the Shetland is the only variety of the equine race of which specimens can be found that possess the blood of no outside cross, and it is upon the sterile moors of Shetland that this pony can be found in all its native purity. Beyond all doubt the inclemency of the climate and the poverty of the fare to which he and his ancestors have been subjected are responsible not only for the diminutive proportions of the Shetland, but for the robustness of his constitution, for no animal unless absolutely sound could exist and propagate his species amidst the hard ships which have been the daily lot of the Shetland for generations. He is a sturdy, cloddy-built little animal, standing about 10 hands at the shoulder, though of course both taller and smaller specimens are to be met with in plenty, and no doubt owing to climate in uences the coat of the Shetland is extremely dense. For his inches he is a marvel of strength and activity, which properties have rendered the Shetland's services invalu able in coal-mines, where the exertions of undersized animals possessed of plenty of power are most useful in bringing coal to the bottom of the shaft. This variety is being a good deal benefited by the Shetland Pony Stud-book Society, which is doing good work by interesting the public in the breed; but the inherent good qualities of the Shetland will always ensure his finding friends in all parts where his merits become properly understood, his docility and intelligence rendering him a very useful animal for the purposes of juvenile equestrians.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Saddle-Horse: A Complete Guide for Riding and Training The young horse soon becomes tractable, and, as long as his temper is unruffied, he desires to do that which is required of him. Until the spirit of rebellion is awak ened, he is as anxious to avoid the perils of battle as his master should be. If, upon an occasion, he declines to perform some movement that is required of him, let his attention he turned to that which will please him, and his obedience in this will induce his obedience afterwards to the first demand. To give up to him after a battle will confirm his obstinacy, but he will soon forget his unnoticed defiance. Under proper treatment he will in time yield to the will of his master, without dreaming of resistance. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
