When I was operating a sawmill and timber processing business in
Queensland Australia, one of our Japanese resellers approached us
about information about horse fencing. He had a client who was
building a racehorse complex and wanted a large amount of fencing.
As the complex owner had paid in the millions of dollars for some
of the horses we realised that good enough was not good enough in
our recommendations. A horse injury caused by one of our
recommendations could have resulted in litigation. We found that
there was not one ideal fence and that whatever the design chosen
would involve compromises. This book will guide you through the
decision making process that will enable you to build the most
appropriate fence for your loved, though possibly less expensive
horse.
The life and career of an unusual and remarkable paint stallion.
Illustrated with photographs. The Diary follows him from age two

humor and his offspring populate the book.
Want to know what kind of challenges a race horse faces, once he
leaves the race track? Let Billy tell you about some of his very
own experiences in "From Race Horse to Trail Horse and Pet." Follow
Billy's thoughts and insecurities along this way in this great and
easy read for all horse lovers. It is filled with many photos and
some wonderful stories about the changes he encountered during his
time.
This true story, filled with discovery, challenges our
understanding of how deeply animals are connected to us and how
they are involved in our lives in ways we could never imagine.
Telepathic animal communication provides the gift of voice for
Diana's horse Emma and brings to light Emma's insights into the
human realm and beyond.
Dr. Cheryl Schwartz, DVM, author of Four Paws, Five Directions,
described Emma as "one of the most unusual horses I ever met."
At the age of four Diana, who had been apartment bound, was
given the chance to ride a horse. For the first time in her life
she felt safe, free and filled with joy. From that day on she
possessed a mystical attraction to horses. Not until she was an
adult could she afford her first horse, however, she had picked
horses based on capabilities and not feelings. Then she met a
beautiful thoroughbred, Emma. An instant emotional bond drew her to
what many thought was a mentally unstable horse. Despite warnings,
Diana bought Emma and proceeded to school this capable athlete to
be her dream show horse. But soon Emma's inexplicable behaviors
interfered with her training. In search of a solution Diana was led
to Carol, someone who could communicate with animals
telepathically. Once her skepticism was overcome Diana regularly
spoke to Emma using Carol as the translator. Diana soon learned
that Emma was not like any other horse she or Carol had ever known.
Emma's wisdom, intelligence and abilities beyond the five senses
invited Diana into worlds she didn't know existed.
Equine Digestion: It's Decidedly Different is about a very basic,
very important topic: the physiology of the horse's digestive
system. So many aspects of horse health depend on the horseperson
understanding the reasons that compel his or her horse's natural
diet and eating habits, and many complex health problems can be
prevented or alleviated through a deeper understanding of how
horses are made on the inside. This book explains the function and
form of the digestive tract and shows you how to feed in sync with
the way your horse is made. The information presented here will
empower you to make the right choices for your horse so you won't
need to rely on your neighbor, or the feed store clerk, or
conventional wisdom for such vital decision-making. You will know
the right way to feed and you'll be able to talk knowledgeably to
those involved with your horse's care.
