Short description:
This book explains, in accessible, everyday language, how to apply the Five Domains of Animal Welfare throughout the horse world, whatever type of equine is concerned or whatever role he or she fulfils.
MoreLong description:
The Five Domains of Animal Welfare, when applied to horses, can act as a safe, reliable source of advice and information for conscientious owners, and also a benchmark by which the practices of the more experienced can be measured, scrutinised and held to account. They provide standards to be met rather than levels to be tolerated.
This book explains, in accessible, everyday language, how to apply the Five Domains throughout the horse world, whatever type of equine is concerned or whatever role he or she fulfils, from pet to Thoroughbred racehorse, from informal friend and hack to Olympic competitor. The Domains have been expertly devised, carefully constructed and logically categorised so that anyone can find trustworthy advice on just about any problem or issue they are likely to meet in their lives with horses.
Looking after a horse properly is an excellent way of preventing problems in the first place, and this book provides reliable information on knowing how to assess a horse on a daily and weekly basis so that owners will realise at a glance that something is not quite right or seriously wrong. These skills are accessible and are crucial to responsible, correct horse care and management.
This book is a vital addition to any horse lovers? library. Its objective is to use The Five Domains of Animal Welfare (formerly known as The Five Freedoms) to give specific equine information as reliable guidance for owners; maybe principally to novice and slightly above, but hopefully for rather more experienced owners as well. Following truly horse-friendly ways of managing and riding horses must improve our relationship with them and that is what the book aims to do. Susan?s writing ability, and love for the horse, is obvious and needs no validation.
