This is the best book I’ve ever seen on Laminitis. Not only is it very easy to read (not written in a scientific jargon) but the information is laid out in a progressive order. The short paragraphs and dot point lists help when scanning for information and there are lots of clear diagrams and photos.
I highly recommend this book for all horse owners, hoof trimmers, farriers and even vets so they know all the latest treatment options and ways to prevent this most common disease of equines.
