Product Description
The contemporary go-to veterinary reference for horse owners, ensuring today?s horse can perform to the best of his ability, whatever his task may be.

For the first time in a full-color volume, Dr. Nancy S. Loving?noted equine veterinarian and dressage, event, and distance riding competitor?addresses the challenging needs of keeping the working horse in "working" order. Not only does she provide a thorough understanding of the intricacies of the equine body, she sets her book apart by describing valuable methods of conditioning the various systems of the horse, from strengthening hoof and bone and promoting muscle development, to developing and maintaining cardiovascular and respiratory fitness. Dr. Loving graduated from Colorado State University Veterinary School in 1985, and since then has practiced equine medicine and surgery exclusively, currently at her own Loving Equine Clinic in Boulder, Colorado. This is her fourth book.

5 out of 5 stars VERY pleased with this book   September 20, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I really like the content. I like the photos, I like the way it's written and most of all, I like the fact that I can understand it. I would say that this book belongs on every horse owner's bookshelf as a reference guide.


5 out of 5 stars comprehensive horse care   August 13, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Dr. Loving has done it again with this comprehensive horse owner's "survival' guide. There is nothing left untouched and every horse owner needs to have this book in their library. I read it cover to cover and have dragged it out on many occasions for answers to questions. Dr. Loving converts equine science into lay terms with outstanding photographs illustrating the topic of discussion. I can't thank her enough for her concern for the horse and the years spent compiling this amazing book. I just wish I lived closer to her clinic in Colorado to utilize her vet skills 'hands-on'.


5 out of 5 stars Very valuable resource book   January 7, 2008
  2 out of 2 found this review helpful

This book I have found to be very valuable as a reference book particularly for people who take their horse sport seriously. I myself am into endurance, and have found absolutely everything I needed to know about what can possibly go wrong with an endurance horse, whether it be training techniques, nutrition, lameness, etc etc. The detail is immnense, and I have not found any veterinary condition not written about, and yet it is easy to understand, and very readable. There are photos and diagrams on almost every page, and the book is 565 pages long, plus has a huge appendix, and bibliography section at the end. I would strongly recommend this book to any competitive horse owner.


4 out of 5 stars Best horse-owner's veterinary reference book   November 25, 2007
  2 out of 2 found this review helpful

This is an exceptionally good reference book, a must-have for horse owners. The photographs are extremely well done. Many are by Dr. Loving herself, and illustrate exactly the points made in the text. I gave this book only 4 of 5 stars because the information on infectious diseases and vaccines is not up to par.


5 out of 5 stars All Horse Systems Go: The Horse Owner's Full-Color Veterinary Care and Conditioning Resource for Modern Performance, Sport and   October 28, 2007

Every horse owner should have a copy of this book. And with the price being less than a vet's farm call, it will pay for itself many times over. What I really appreciated about the book was that it isn't so technical that you need a medical degree to understand it, yet at the same time it is very thorough and the pictures, wow the pictures! For example not only are you told how to care for a deep wound, but how it should look at various staging of healing. How many times have you treated a wound and called the vet daily wondering if it's healing o.k. or getting worse?

The only thing that I was a tad disappointed in was most of the hoof shots showed shod horses and I am practicing natural hoof care and barefoot trimmning. But if you want a book on Barefoot Hoof Care, you should order a book specific to that topic. This book, it covers everything else you will ever wonder about with your horse and health related problems.

I don't call many of my 1000 books a "bible" of whatever subject, but this is my "bible" of horse health.
