Equine Lameness for the Layman: Tools for Prompt Recognition, Accurate Assessment, and Proactive Management

This book is no joke. It is dense, filled with veterinary terms and has many video links to actual examples. It is a wealth of information and helped me when discussing a horse's lameness with the vet two days ago. It is not an easy read but it is invaluable. HIGHLY recommend!

This is the text I have been waiting for a veterinarian to write. There are videos supporting the discussion (you scan the code with your phone), illustrations, photos and charts.This book was not written so owners, trainers and for that matter, other health care professionals can diagnose. The bottom of the cover says it all: “Tools for prompt recognition, accurate assessment and proactive management.”In the introduction the author writes:“The primary objective of this book is to shorten the time frame between the onset of your horse’s problem and your recognition of it.”It is wonderful to see that someone has taken the time to write guidelines so the caregiver can get their steed the intervention by the veterinarian before the horse develops a larger problem or secondary issues.I highly recommend this book to everyone! It will be on Equinology's recommendation list for our students. Thank you Dr. Grisel!Debranne PattilloAuthor: Anatomy of Equine Bodywork: The Equinology Approach

If you are looking for a multimedia approach to educating yourself about detecting lameness in horses this book is ideal. The book is very well written and organized with numerous photos and diagrams as well as video examples integrated into the text. I could not get my phone to scan the barcodes but all of the videos are available at getsound.com/tutorials. I find it much easier to look at videos on my computer anyway. It is obvious that this book is the result of profound dedication to and love for the horse.

This is easily one of the most valuable books on my equine book shelf. It is thorough, easy to understand, and the addition of video examples is brilliant. Between reading the material that is presented in clear and well ordered fashion and watching the case studies, you will learn a tremendous amount of useful skills in recognizing equine lameness.

This book translates top-notch veterinary expertise into an accessible and easy to use guide and tutorial for understanding and diagnosing the many sources of lameness. This book should be on the shelf of every horse owner, where undoubtedly it will be of great use in improving the lives and health of our beloved companions. The accompanying videos make the teaching concrete and are a great addition to the text.

I loved the videos that accompany the book sections. The reading is very detailed. The videos helped me to understand the concepts.

SHe is working on a project to help lame horses and was glad to get this book.

Amazing book, super informative. Highly recommend it

I adore this book, it's so informative and has exact videos you can scan a code with your QR scanner to view. Super book I recommend heavily. Also think it's a great accompanying book to essential hoof book by Christina Cline and Susan Kauffmann. Both when used together really open your eyes and mind to what we put horses feet through on a daily basis and things that can go wrong.

Fantastic book - It’s such an interesting read and the videos are ace - to gain such knowledge from a top vet is absolutely brilliant and I just couldn’t put the book down. A big thank you to the author .

Easily the best textbook out there. Highly accurate in content and with clear and easy to follow descriptions and video links. Not really for the regular layman. However, should become a mandatory text for all veterinarian students and lameness specialists, trainers, and bodyworkers.

Tolles Preis-Leistungsverhältnis. Wirklich gut zur Blickschulung geeignet.

Seems to be a problem with delivery but trying there best to help me out
