Book Reviews of Blessed Are The Brood Mares (Howell Equestrian Library)
Book Review: This book just saved a foal's life!
Summary: 5 Stars
My old "Blessed Are the Brood Mares" is dog-eared and falling apart, so I'm about to treat myself to a new one. With the information on these golden pages, I've managed to save TWO foals, who would not otherwise have survived. I wouldn't be without the treasure trove of information between the hard-used covers of my copy. This book is the antidote to ignorance of the mysterious brood mare, her antiquated reproductive system, and her oh-so-fragile foals. Every horseperson worth he/his salt should own this one. Dr. Lose's anecdotal information is compelling and impresses on the breeder the enormity of what they do when they contemplate breeding a beloved or valuable mare. Every bit of the advice I chose to follow has rewarded me lavishly. This book includes an illuminating section on foal illnesses and tons of advice on how to keep the brood mare healthy throughout the years of her reproductive life, and how to avoid putting her in undue jeopardy. This book is a "gotta-have" for the compassionate breeder and of equines.
Summary of Blessed Are The Brood Mares (Howell Equestrian Library)
When Blessed Are The Blood Mares was published in 1978, no other single source existed that contained such a wide range of information on the care of the breeding of mare from mating, through gestation, to foaling and nursing, and on the care of the young horse. Now there is: the second edition of this classic.Horses Books
