Paddock Paradise: A Guide to Natural Horse Boarding
by Jaime Jackson

Paddock Paradise: A Guide to Natural Horse Boarding
by Jaime Jackson

This book is Jaime Jackson's groundbreaking adventure in natural boarding for horses. Based on Jackson's legendary research on wild horses, Paddock Paradise is a revolutionary model for safe, natural horsekeeping, hoof care, and the healing and rehabilitation of lame horses. The premise of Paddock Paradise is to stimulate horses to behave and move naturally according to their instincts. "This is the key," according to Jackson, "to having physically and mentally healthier horses." This unique and unprecedented model is adaptable to virtually all size horse properties, regardless of climate, and fits all equine breeds, regardless of how they are used.

Some benefits from using this system:

  • Encourages constant movement, as nature intended
  • Greater movement means natural hoof wear
  • Protects horses from founder-prone pastures
  • Minimizes the need for warm-up time before riding
  • Helps address neurotic behaviors by providing natural healthy outlets
  • Provides an effective means for diet and weight management
  • Adaptable for breeding, foaling and multiple horse operations

Making Natural Hoof Care Work for You

Making Natural Hoof Care Work for You
by Pete Ramey

Pete Ramey is a skilled, full-time natural hoof care practitioner from Georgia (also a field instructor for the American Association of Natural Hoof Care Practitioners). Those who have read Jackson's Horse Owners Guide to Natural Hoof Care will recall the story of how Pete converted to natural hoof care in 1998, after being a shoer. Pete has now written his first book about the many horses, both shod and lame, he has brought successfully into barefootedness and soundness since then. Pete's reflections are based on his real life journey from novice to professional practitioner. Much of what Pete has learned has been through trial and error, and it is Pete's intention that you will be able to avoid some of his mistakes!
Written in down-to-earth language, and full of photos and drawings, this book is Pete's unique spin on natural hoof care. A perfect companion to the Horse Owners Guide to Natural Hoof Care, horse owners will find lots of useful information in Pete's book to make their hoof care programs more successful. Softcover, 168 pages.

Founder: Prevention & Cure the Natural Way

Founder: Prevention & Cure the Natural Way
by Jaime Jackson

Founder kills thousands of horses every year, and leaves tens of thousands of others debilitated in its wake. In this startling revelation and guide to the natural, holistic cure and prevention of founder, author/hoof care expert Jaime Jackson brings an entirely new perspective to the treatment table. Jackson assails the shadowy world of conventional veterinary therapies, and de-bunks the "founder mythology" which holds countless horses hostage to this terrifying malady of the modern horse world. This may be the most controversial book yet written on the subject . . . and the most useful. Includes a "Founder Action Plan" for immediate action in identifying and removing the causes of founder, and starting on the road to healing.

"I wrote this book as a result of hundreds of consultations I've conducted over the last few years. So often a horse owner would call me after their vet or farrier has advised them to "put the horse down, since nothing more can be done". I've advised them all: "There is something that can be done, and your horse will be healthy again if you will just follow this plan." Here, in book form, is that plan." -- Jaime Jackson

The Sound Hoof, Horse Health from the Ground Up
by Lisa Simons Lancaster

The Sound Hoof, Horse Health from the Ground Up
by Lisa Simons Lancaster

From the publisher, "Lancaster takes a pragmatic approach toward the emerging field of holistic hoof care, a subject that is being heatedly discussed in the equine community, by documenting the latest science available regarding a balanced, healthy hoof and horse."

What I really like about this book is the neutral, yet very much pro-barefoot, postion of the author. There is no "right" or "wrong" way here, but simply a presentation of the information and research currently available. Great explanation of Duckett's Dot. This is also an ideal book for those unfamiliar or uncomfortable with the whole barefoot concept - a gentle way to get anyone to start thinking about their horse's hooves. Don't miss the chapter "Action Gallery," which features tons of photos of barefoot horses in action! Softcover, 126 pages.

An unsolicited review from Risa Couch of South Carolina:, "Whether you need a dose of encouragement, or remain skeptical about the benefits of the entire Strasser Method, this book is a must have. It is a very easy to read and inspirational. There are many before and after photos and case studies of horses whose owners and Strasser Hoof Care Professionals have persevered and educated themselves about correct hoof form and lifestyle. From relatively healthy hooves that transitioned easily, to seriously damaged founder cases, "navicular" horses, deformed hoofs and accident victims many of these stories and transformations toward healthy hoof form are quite dramatic. There are amazing transformations going on all around the world, folks!"
