Product Description No horse farmer wants to think about sick or hurt animals, but such situations do occur at some point on every farm. When a horse isn’t well, the reference every owner will turn to first is Storey’s Barn Guide to Horse Health Care + First Aid. With a nail-hole at the top of each page spread, the book can hang on a barn wall as a hands-free visual guide to every health situation likely to occur.
Graphic step-by-step presentations guide farmers through daily health checks, basic dental and hoof care, preventive procedures, emergency first aid care, and wound treatment. The book also features full-color anatomical illustrations, feeding and nutritional charts, a recordkeeping section, and a checklist of first-aid supplies. The Emergency and Wounds sections both begin with careful instructions on when to call the veterinarian and what to do until professional help arrives.
Always available to guide horse farmers through basic equine health procedures, this Barn Guide will be a handy reference and an invaluable practical resource on every horse farm.

Every barn should have this book! October 26, 2009 D. L. Perin (Maine , USA) Whether you have one horse or ten this book is a must have and should be kept next to the first aid kit at every barn. It should be required reading for any horse owner. The illustrations make everything in this book easy to understand. I really like that it covers not just first aid but total health care of the horse and especially preventative care. The best horse owners are educated horse owners and this book is an easy and informative way to learn all the basics for horse health and first aid.
Everyone should have a copy of this book! July 15, 2009 Kathleen M. Smith (Maryland) This is truly a wonderful book for eveyone to have on hand... It is very well written and will explain things easily even to someone just starting out with horses... Also, there are easy to follow illustrations which also make this book fool-proof... A must have for every horse caretaker... =)
