Keeping a Horse at Grass by Vanessa Britton
Keeping a horse at grass can require as much thought and management as one would put into caring for a stabled animal. This manual provides guidance for the health, safety and happiness of a horse at grass. Areas discussed include: assessing the horse's suitability for outdoor living; fencing, shelter, feeding and watering facilities; day-to-day care; analyzing grass and growing for hay; reconditioning pasture; drainage and soil testing; nutrition; general health care and common ailments; and safety and insurance. The author has also written "The Complete Tack Guide".
Vanessa Britton is a well-known journalist, researcher and photographer. She is the author of several equestrian books, including All About Rugs in the Allen Photographic Guide series, and has written for many different magazines and newspapers on a variety of subjects but now concentrates on equestrian articles.
