p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 10.0px Helvetica} In
the United States alone, it is estimated that almost 150,000 horses
per year are unwanted. This number grows exponentially when you
consider horses worldwide. What is 'unwanted'? The term is used to
refer to horses that are old, injured, sick, unmanageable, or fail
to meet expectations. The horse may have a lameness or illness...or
he could just be the wrong colour or gender. His problem could be
life-threatening...or chronic and manageable. He may have a mild
behavioural problem... or a severe one. The good news is, today,
more and more individuals are choosing to give an unwanted horse a
second chance. Whether through purchase, adoption, or rescue, the
horse in the 'wrong' situation has a chance to find his way to the
'right one'. Dr. Stacie Boswell's goal is to restore health and
comfort to every horse in transition, and to help him learn how to
function as the horse he is expected to be - from the Thoroughbred
off the track to the grade pony from the field down the road. She
has compiled hundreds of case studies highlighting the areas of
concern in the horse 'in need', and in these pages details
proactive methods of handling common medical problems and health
issues, from nutrition and dentistry to deworming and hoofcare to
traumatic injury and emergency rescue scenarios. Dr. Boswell then
explains the ways that, as a new horse is rehabilitated physically,
specific training techniques can help him adapt to the positive
changes in his care and environment.
