Keeping horses healthy and happy is all about establishing good routines and following the natural cycles of the animals and the land. Nobody knows this better than Cherry Hill, professional horse keeper, lifelong horse lover, and author of more than 30 books on horses. If it involves horses, Hill knows what to do and when to do it. Her routines - daily, monthly, and seasonal - are the framework for Cherry Hill's Horsekeeping Almanac", a gold- mine of horse keeping knowledge for all horse enthusiasts.Month by month, Hill touches on every issue likely to affect horses, horse farms, and the people who care for them both. Each month opens with a brief description of what's happening on the farm, followed by personal notes on specific, month-appropriate topics. May, for example, includes advice on grazing, snakes, composting, bathing and clipping, and fire strips. November features colic, winter water, dry shampoo, and outdoor horse clothing. Every month includes recurring reminders, to-do lists, reference charts, climate notes, equine wit and wisdom, a word of the month, and an 'ask Cherry" section featuring seasonally relevant excerpts from her newsletter - all the fascinating titbits, lore, and handed-down insights that make almanacs so fascinating. Tying everything together is Cherry Hill's trusted voice and deep-seated knowledge of horses.This is a book readers will keep on hand to welcome each new season on the farm. Horse keepers will browse it frequently, use it as a reference in times of doubt, keep reminders in it, and come back to it year after year - a reminder of their own horse-keeping seasons. It will become, in Cherry Hill's words, a Horse keeping Master Plan.
