Produktbeschreibung

No Foot, No Horse?

What if we could keep our beloved horses in a way that is governed by their needs rather than our convenience? Your horse needs shoes and pads...or does he? For strong healthy bodies and sound minds, horses need friends to socialise, freedom to roam, and a natural, diverse, forage-based diet to meet their needs. Learn more about becoming your horse's ideal human in Bare Hooves and Open Hearts, original horse tales from rural England describing how the author, a horsewoman and surgeon, learned to help her horses flourish barefoot on sustainable holistic diets.

Autorenporträt

Fran McNicol is an amateur equestrienne living in the UK. She is a full-time doctor, specialising in surgery. Her MD thesis was an examination of the inflammatory cascade in sepsis. As a surgeon, MBChB, MD, FRCS, she obviously knows a huge amount about the human animal. But the most useful product of medical training, from her horses' point of view, is that she learned how to research, evaluate evidence and then apply theory to optimise the care of her horses. Her writing is, therefore, a mix of opinion and her current state of learning from 25 years of doctoring, time spent working around the world as a polo groom and many years of keeping her own horses. Fran loves training young horses and focuses on riding the sport horse both classically and holistically. She competes regularly for her local riding club, especially in One Day Eventing. Nelipot Cottage started life as an educational blog, to share learning and best practise, to promote the benefits of a barefoot and holistic herd lifestyle for whole horse health, and to reflect on life lessons learned along the way. Fran believes that horses exist to bring out the very best in humans. It is her hope that sharing these tales will bring new friends, kindred spirits, exchange of knowledge and lots of positive energy into the lives of the Nelipot herd.
