Horse Health Care

Horse Health Care is very detailed & well organized for a new horse owner or others more experienced, since it provides a number of alternative options for different issues & tasks.

A great book for the new horse owner!

This is a great book for the new owner who hasn't been brought up aroung horses. It has great pictures and goes into a lot of detail about nutrition, vaccinations, illness/injury, age characteristics ect.

This book made owning a horse a lot easier

Without Cherry Hill and her books with all the pictures I am sure I would have been panicking at every little scratch on my horses. She explains things so a non-horse person can understand without having to run to dictionaries or other horse reference books to look up her explaination. I buy all her books as I find them and enjoy her friendly way of writing. Thank you Cherry Hill for taking the time to make the explaination interesting and informative.

A must have book for the first time owner.

This book covers so much information. As a first time owner or someone who has owned a few good horses: you need this book. Illustrations are great and the information invaluable for any horse facility.
