Well-Shod
: A Horseshoeing Guide for Owners & Farriers (Western Horseman Books) by Don
Baskins Book Description
Readers can use this book as a guide to learn whether their horses
are being shod properly or use it to learn to shoe their own horses. The
book stresses good horse handling techniques and proper trimming. Correct
trimming of the feet is the basis of good shoeing, and neither can be accomplished
if the horseshoer cannot get the horse to stand still long enough to work
on him-thus the importance of handling. To get really proficient at horseshoeing,
it takes a lot of practice trimming and shoeing a lot of different horses.
This book covers all the basics in plain, simple language, lavishly illustrated,
and diagrammed.
