RE: [RC] Need suggestions on resources - Smith, Dave

As a barefoot advocate, I would highly recommend “Natural Hoof Care” by Pete Ramey.  It may be that you won’t have to shoe any of your horses.

Running a rescue and owning 9 horses of my own, the costs associated with trimming are astronomical.  So, we have been successfully trimming and have had no issues, including on the distance horses.

 

We are now ready to move beyond general trimming, into shoeing for abscess treatment if needed, and perhaps shoeing the distance horses if needed.

 

I would like to know what books you recommend as high quality reference material if you are doing your own hoofcare.  I have a strong science/medical background and do the majority of our non-urgent vet care but do not want a highly technical reference.

 

Thanks SO MUCH!!!
