Behaviour Problems in Horses Summary

Behaviour Problems in Horses by Susan McBane

Horse-owners find from time to time that their animals do not behave in an acceptable way, and trying to find solutions to such problems can be frustrating. This book discusses a range of behavioural abnormalities and aims to help readers to imagine how the horse might see a given situation and identify it with events in its own past. Contributors tackle a variety of problems, and in an extensive problem dictionary the author examines topics from refusing to back, to wind-sucking, and offers advice on the possible reasons for them, and how to deal with them. She recommends when professional help should be sought, and explains when a problem simply cannot be remedied.
