Extensively revised to reflect today's practices, the Third Edition features over 400 detailed, two-color line drawings that illustrate every aspect of grooming. A practical, hands-on reference, it:

  • Brings all information in line with current practices and requirements

  • Covers conditioning, daily care, tools and supplies, and grooming for shows

  • Features new chapters on blanketing, newly popular breeds, and the latest show ring clothing styles

  • Covers all disciplines

  • Includes trimming styles by type and event as well as by breed

The spiral binding lays flat so it's easy for you to follow along step by step. Complete with helpful lists and checklists, this is the must-have reference for anyone who grooms horses for show
