Juliet M. Getty, Ph.D. will be the featured speaker, April 15th, in The Evolution of Animal Health Care® Expanding Wellness Options series. Dr Getty will offer feeding fundamentals, and specifics guidelines for preventing and treating laminitis, ulcers, and colic.
What to feed, how to feed, and when—conventional wisdom used to dictate the answer: Toss out a flake of “good quality” hay and hope for the best. These days, though, advances in nutritional research, evolving horse-keeping practices, disappearing pasture land and increasingly sophisticated veterinary knowledge make the horse owner’s feed decisions highly complex. For some it can be daunting, but for equine nutritionist Juliet Getty, Ph.D., the changing horse-scape creates an exciting opportunity to optimize the nutritional profile of every horse.
Through decades of consulting practice, Dr. Getty has encountered frequent confusion about equine nutrition. Add to that the unique nutritional constraints dictated by specific medical conditions or uses (think laminitis or working draft horses), and it becomes clear why Dr. Getty has written her exhaustive new 484-page reference book: Feed Your Horse Like A Horse: Optimize your horse’s nutrition for a lifetime of vibrant health.
Feed Your Horse Like A Horse starts from a basic principle: as Dr. Getty says, “The best way we can show respect for our equine friends is to honor how they’re made”—which is different from almost every other creature on the planet. In nature, horses graze all the time, and on a wide variety of forage; Dr. Getty’s goal is to mimic the horse’s natural diet, and create a feed program that meets the horse’s complete nutritional needs.
A reference book equally valuable for the equine science student, the large-scale breeder, the frequent competitor and the recreational horseman (and anyone else with a horse’s well-being at heart), Feed Your Horse Like A Horse begins with key information about equine physiology and the science of nutrition. The latter part of the book targets nutritional protocols for particular conditions and activities. From breeding and gestation, through growth phases, into performance demands and finally old age, Feed Your Horse Like A Horse provides guidance on all aspects of equine nutrition to deliver that promised “lifetime of vibrant health.”
Juliet M. Getty, Ph.D. is a consultant, speaker, and writer in equine nutrition. A former university professor and the winner of several teaching awards, Dr. Getty presents seminars to horse organizations and works with individual owners to create customized nutrition plans designed to prevent illness and optimize their horses’ overall health and performance. Dr. Getty has written for numerous publications and her work has also been cited in other authors’ publications. The well-being of the horse remains Dr. Getty’s driving motivation.
