Customer Reviews

Ingenious and refreshing
A whole new way for the average person with a bit of land and a drive to practice optimal husbandry to create a stimulating world for their horses, to their health and deep contentment.

The difference between Jackson's approach and the usual fenced acreage is like the difference between an animal safari park and an old-fashioned bars-and-walls zoo. Creating physical, social, and ideally even emotional environments in which animals can believe they're in their primordial setup yields fascinating results when applied to horses.

Clearly and enthusiastically written--you will admire the author's creativity and sense of applied fun. Contains imagination-provoking diagrams and encourages you to improvise to accomodate your circumstances, geography, and herd composition. Highly recommended.

Healthy horsekeeping
Very helpful for anyone who wonders even slightly about paddock paradise.
People who want to know why paddock paradise is good for our horses and also for people who already decided on paddock paradise and just want to know how to start. But also for people who have never heard of it and bump in to the book, or as a present for someone with a horse or more.

Doesn't matter how much acre you have, 1 or 100, as long as you love your horses and want the healthiest lifestyle for them. Competition horses,trail horses or just meadow buddies.

This book explains how Jamie Jackson got the idea for a revolutionary way of horse keeping, one that is not only easier to maintain, but most important healthier for your horse! Better hoofs (barefoot), much less risk for founder,and fitter horses just because they want to keep moving like wild horses. No more cribbing and weaving because the horses are simply never bored. All in easy to follow guidelines in this book.

Really great book for especially for someonw looking for an alternative to a dry lot for their horse
This book explains a really great idea for keeping horses, especially easy keepers and laminitis prone horses. The paddock paradise track system encourages horse to move around more than the alternatives of standing in a dry-lot or being out on pasture getting fat. Jaime Jackson bases all of the ideas he has for setting up your paddock paradise from his observations of the wild mustangs out west. Some of his suggestions seem a little out there, but even in it's most minimal form Paddock Paradise seems like a great options and is an interesting book for anyone looking for a healthier lifestyle for their horse.
