As horse owners, we have a right to protect and prevent injury and disease from happening to the horses under our care. However, owners are being blocked at every turn by caring people trying to improve our horses' lives. But can they do this while also being driven by an agenda?
The horse owner's manual that was supposed to come with every horse has many missing pieces - or maybe the manual never came with your horses. So instead, we ask professionals what to do, including veterinarians, farriers, feed stores, and others in the industry or our barns. Specialists, with a narrow field of offerings, only fix what is wrong. Still, they rarely advise on how to prevent the problems they are trying to heal from happening.
What if colic, laminitis, lameness and more were preventable? Owners and their horses would be happy, but many specialists would lose their authority. This podcast discusses this place horse owners find themselves in - between those good people who benefit by fixing and those who help by teaching prevention.
