Reviews / Votes
The pictorial guide is an up-to-date book on equine internal parasites. It is an easy-to-understand approach to worming treatments with an emphasis on prevention helping to reduce the cost of keeping a horse healthy. This book enables you to keep a horse as worm free as possible while showing you that this need not cost the earth. I loved the book, it is so easy to understand and informative. I would thoroughly recommend it to anyone who has a horse or pony. Worming can often seem more than a little confusing, but this concise guide makes it simple. After reading this, worming will become easier to understand, and you'll have no trouble planning a suitable, safe, worming routine for your horse.More details
