This comprehensive equine laminitis book will enable you to discover the vital information you need to know to help your horse on the road to recovery.

This is THE reference book for all farriers and horse owners who are struggling to help their horses to recover from the devastating effects of laminitis and founder.

Written in clear, simple language that is easy to understand and implement for both beginners and experienced horse people alike.

It will guide you through the issues related to the laminitis and give you practical ways to prevent, treat and manage the laminitic equine using safe and effective, natural methods.

As a hoof care professional, I come across laminitis and founder on a frequent basis. I understand from both first-hand experience with my own horse and through witnessing my client's distress, just how scary it can be to find out your horse has laminitis. 

It can be overwhelming to try and take it all in when you see your horse in so much pain especially when you get conflicting advice from so many different sources.

Whilst there are lots of great online resources for laminitis, it can be time consuming to try and pull all that information together to come up with a workable solution for your horse. 

That is why I decided to write this book - to give you the information you need to make the right decisions and get your horse on the road to recovery as soon as possible.

Based on years' of experience and education it is a comprehensive resource for understanding laminitis and founder.

The equine foot is a complex organ. It’s form and function has a direct influence on the performance, longevity and value of the horse. The book contains radiographs that provide specific information about soft tissue, bone angles and the biomechanical efficacy of the foot. Included case studies describe how to measure and evaluate healthy parameters as well as mechanical formulas for foot rehabilitation. Using this standard for evaluation provides a common language between professionals for managing the horse’s feet.

Follow the development of the horse’s foot from birth to retirement in this exciting new color guide to foot care and problems. Designed as a resource for trainers and breeding farms, and as a reference for farriers and veterinarians, this book does not teach how to shoe, but rather when and why a particular shoe or treatment may be needed.

More than 50 pages address flexural (tendon, club foot) and skeletal problems in foals and yearlings, with instructions for making correction devices made of plastic, aluminum, and adhesive composites.

Simon Curtis FWCF, of Newmarket, England is farrier to some of the world’s leading racing and breeding operations and a well-known lecturer. He is resident surgical farrier for Rossdale & Partners veterinary practice in Newmarket. Examples are included from his work in Europe, Australia, America, and India.

Chapters include:

• understanding foot balance 
• deformities in foals
• club feet, "contracted tendons," crooked limbs
• making and applying simple but effective extension shoes 
• cosmetic hoof preparation and shoeing for sales
• raceplating for turf and dirt tracks 
• hoof wall and crack repair and patching 
• infections in the foot 
• laminitis

While focusing on the Thoroughbred, most information is practical and helpful for all use with any breed.
