This book is dedicated to my beloved niece, Robyn Antonucci, CVT, in deep appreciation for all her help with the technical aspects of equine care and treatment. Without her enthusiastic input and willingness to be on call whenever I needed information, this story might never have been written. Thank you so much for all your support, Robyn, and also the countless times you went to Dr. Heidi for her expert advice.

Acknowledgments

I also want to acknowledge all the wonderful horses that have crossed my path over my lifetime and remain in my memory. It is my hope that this book will increase public awareness of the abuse and neglect these magnificent animals must so often endure. If you see a skeleton horse, call your local humane society and the police. If you witness equine abuse, contact the authorities immediately. Too often when an animal is being abused, people look the other way. Please, don’t! You may be that helpless creature’s only hope.
