Synopsis

Daily grooming is a vital part of horse care, and this Simple Solutions title by Elizabeth Moyer encapsulates the benefits and procedure in an easy-to-read entertaining way. Grooming offers many healthful rewards to the horse and also helps to build a bond between owner and his or her horse. This guide, with colorful and instructive illustrations by Jean Abernethy, offers advice on choosing the right equipment (brushes, currycomb, hoof pick, grooming mitts, etc.) and the best way to groom a horse. Starting with the stiffest brush and progresses to the softest one, grooming should systematic for you and therapeutic for the horse. While the goal is to remove dirt and shine the coat, the groomer is also giving the horse quality time and improving its health and hygiene. There are chapters on hoof care, mane and tail care, bathing, and trimming that offer readers specific advice about grooming the horse's whole body.

Each book in the Horse Illustrated Simple Solutions series zeroes in on a common problem faced by horse owners and is the perfect-fast-reading source of answers for every horse lover. Gleaming and gorgeous, well-brushed horses are the envy of their stablemates, but good grooming is more than skin deep. Without thorough daily care, a horse can suffer from easily preventable illnesses and untreated injuries. With Grooming, you'll learn a routine that promotes equine health, including currying, mane and tail care, hoof cleaning and bathing. You'll benefit too, because frequent grooming sessions will strengthen your bond with your horse.
