Dr. Marty Becker and his wife, Teresa, team up with award-winning writer and horsewoman Audrey Pavia and syndicated columnist Gina Spadafori to answer everything you???d ever want to know about horses--and more! How long does it take for a baby horse to learn how to stand? What???s the difference between a pony and a horse? Why can???t a horse just wear a cast on a broken leg? How much horsepower does a horse really have? How do directors get horses to fall down in movies? Do horseshoes really bring good luck? Why do horses walk and poop at the same time? Does a horse know if he has won a race? Is it true horses can???t throw up? Are horses good swimmers? Do horses have good memories?
