Description
Many people face difficulties in convincing horse professionals such as vets and farriers to consider alternative approaches to horses' health. These professionals tend to resist change, making it uncomfortable to persuade them to adopt new ideas. I have recorded a podcast to discuss a book on horse health that was written over a hundred years ago in 1916.  During the podcast, I read some paragraphs from the book and encouraged the listeners to question why certain diseases occur in horses. By taking a historical and worldwide perspective on horse health, we can gain a better understanding of how to prevent and limit disease and lameness. ********** TheHorsesAdvocate.com is a website for learning about horses, horse barns, and farms.
