Book
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Navicular Syndrome is one of the most common, and sometimes one of the most frustrating causes of lameness in performance horses. Navicular lameness is caused by the pain associated with the compression of an inflamed bone and related structures. In its mildest form it will limit performance, but at the worst it can kill a sale or end a career. It will never go away and it will usually worsen over time. However, it can often be effectively managed with proper diagnosis, medical therapy and therapeutic trimming and shoeing. The navicular bone is located within the hoof, just behind the coffin joint formed between the short pastern and coffin bones. It is held in place by the impar and the suspensory navicular ligaments and the tendon of the deep digital flexor muscle which runs behind and under navicular bone and attaches to the coffin bone. The space between the deep digital flexor tendon and the navicular bone is protected by a fluid filled sac called the navicular bursa. In navicular syndrome, any of these structures may become inflamed and painful. Functionally, the navicular bone bears part of the horse's weight and it acts as a fulcrum for the deep digital flexor tendon. When the leg is in weight bearing position and forward motion is initiated, the deep digital flexor muscle contracts, pulls on its tendon and transmits tremendous pressure to the related tendon, bursa, bone and joint. In navicular syndrome it is the pressure on the inflamed structures which causes the pain and lameness. Although it is not an uncommon cause of lameness, it can be difficult to make a definitive diagnosis of navicular syndrome. It can cause intermittent or shifting lameness, it can appear to be a suspensory injury of shoulder lameness, or it can simply be difficult to prove that all the pain originate from navicular structures. This book has been written to help clear up many of the concerns and misconceptions that surround navicular syndrome in the horse - a condition that is often diagnosed even when such an interpretation isn't warranted. The author describes what the condition is (and what it is not), how it develops, and, most importantly, how to participate in and understand the diagnosis and various treatments. Findings on causes and treatments are also included. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Book
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Dressage doesn't have to be complicated! In Real Life Dressage Carl Hester shares his training methods and shows how they can be adapted to suit individual horses. Assisted by co-writer Polly Ellison, he outlines his training regimes and favourite exercises, following some of his own horses up the levels to Grand Prix. As the training progresses Carl examines the problems that are commonly encountered, and explains how he and other riders might overcome them. As Carl says, 'I have deliberately chosen horses with differing conformations and mental attitudes in order to illustrate the factors that need to be taken into account when training a horse to these levels.' Carl's training philosophy is very much on the lines of the German training system, the 'Richtlinien' or broad path, that German trainers use so successfully. 'With each of my horses, no matter what type or temperament, the fundamental ground rules from the "scales of training" apply. In working up the levels to Grand Prix you will see that I regularly refer back to various aspects of the training scale, as I believe these ground rules should be applied constantly if you want to get the best out of your horse.'.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Whilst her Tellington TTouch Method offers a positive, no-force approach to training, it is much more than just a training method: using a combination of TTouches, Leading Exercises, and the Confidence Course (exercises over obstacles), a dog's performance and health are improved, common behaviour issues are solved, and physical problems are positively influenced. Linda clearly explains how dogs can be helped to overcome problems such as: excessive barking and chewing; leash pulling; jumping up; dog-aggressive behaviour; fear-biting; timidity and shyness; resistance to grooming; hyper-activity; nervousness; car sickness; hip dysplasia; fear of thunder and other loud noises; and more. A list of common behavioural and physical ailments with the recommended corresponding TTouch solutions is included. Case studies involving different breeds of dogs demonstrate how many owners, some at their wits end, have used the TTouches and the Confidence Course to solve all manner of difficulties, with happy results. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
