The Perfect Stall books (The Perfect Stall, How To Be The Perfect Horsekeeper, and Help Your Horse Live a Good, Long Life) will teach you how to solve the problems listed below:

1. Stall Construction
   Too small, hazardous latches, deadly doorways, risky siding, the wrong kind of stall floor, and many other problems. Learn just how dangerous and unhealthy your horse's stall is, and why.
   
   
2. Respiratory Damage
   Dust, ammonia, and poor ventilation, not to mention unnatural feeding methods. It's a documented fact: They all pose a serious threat to your horse's lungs. Find out how science has proven that even the most elite performance horses simply can't be performing up to their fullest potential, thanks to the effect their stalls have on their respiratory tracts… and how easy it'd be to change that.
   
   
3. Water
   Traditional methods are unreliable providers of fresh, healthy, ice-free water. They don't encourage your horse to drink, and they carry a real risk of shock or electrocution when floating or submerged tank heaters are used. Do you believe the adage that water is the most important nutrient? Find out why the Perfect watering system is the only way to water your horse.
   
   
4. Bad Feeder
   The standard type of feeder is bad for your horse's eyes, throat, lungs, and skin. Surprised? Find out why it's true.
   
   
5. Bad Lighting
   Impairs your powers of observation -- your first line of defense against health problems in your horse. Also makes it difficult for your vet to examine your horse and administer treatment. Find out all the reasons why you really should change the lights in your horse's stall (it's not just for brighter lighting), and how to do it.
   
   
6. Fire Hazard
   Flammable bedding in the stalls and in storage, hot light bulbs, fans powered by extension cords, dusty, dirty facilities - no wonder horse barns are a fire hazard. Unavoidable? Just part of life in a horse barn? The answer may surprise you.
   
   
7. Monitoring Your Horse While Away
   You're either tied down and never leave (or sleep!), or you're constantly worried and in a hurry to get back. And, veterinary research proves you're right to worry - there's a significant increase in your horse's risk of serious illness and injuries if somebody other than you takes care of him. Is it possible to have horses, and have a life too? The Perfect Stall thinks it is.
   
   
8. Flies
   They make your horse's life miserable, and carry diseases. Chemical repellents don't work, and pesticides actually increase the fly population! Learn how your current setup attracts flies, even when you keep your horse's old-fashioned stall spotlessly clean.
   
   
9. Environmentally Disatsterous Manure Management Practices
   At the 2005 Trial Lawyers Association Convention, horse facilites that dump thier stall muck in a pile outside were identified as a great untapped resource for ambitious litigators. Find out how to not only solve disposal issues but actually create a new revenue source, without adding more work, even if you have a very small operation.
   
   
10. Unhealthy Feeding Methods
    You've heard it over and over: Horses were never meant to eat thier total daily ration in two or three big meals. But what's the alternative? It's our number one pick for horse-care innovation of the year. We think it'll do more to improve horse health than anything you could change in your current horse-care routine.
    
    
11. Inefficient Methods and Tools
    They do a lousy job, they don;t hold up, and they put you at risk for back injuries and other hazards. We've found several new ways of doing things that will make horsekeeping easier, safer, and more effective for you.
    
    
12. Filthy Conditions
    The time we spend with our horses is our "off-duty" time, so we're in a different headspace at the barn, and often fail to notice how unhygenic the conditions are. Learn how to look at your stalls, barns, and grounds with a new eye - and get your horse facility cleaner than you ever thought possible, and keep it that way. You'll be amazed at how easy it is, and how it lifts everybody's spirits.
    
    
13. Fat! Fat! Fat!
    Fed up with frustration over a horse that gains weight on air? Find out why you've been unable to slim him down, and read about a method that targets a common equine obesity problem at its source.
    
    
14. Outdated First Aid
    Many of the methods that are common practice have been in use for generations. Don't make the mistake of interpreting that to mean they're the best way, or the only way. We've tested a lot of new methods and found some winners.
    
    
15. Senior Care
    In many ways, older horses are so different that they're like a different species. Find out what areas of horse care need upgrading when your horse enters his golden age, and why.
