Description: | Whether you're buying your first horse, choosing breeding stock, or simply want to learn more about your equine companion, THE HORSE CONFORMATION HANDBOOK will help you understand horses better than ever before. Horses with good conformation move fluidly, experience less wear and tear on joints, and are more apt to stay fit. Explaining how conformation relates to structure and function, Heather Smith Thomas shows you how to identify a horse’s desirable attributes and potential faults. You’ll learn to train your eye to see past an animal’s physical beauty and recognize proper balance, leg angles, and height as you confidently select horses that have superior durability, trainability, and athletic potential. |
