Handling and Understanding the Horse by Marcy Pavord
This volume sets out to cover all the the things the reader need to know about horse care. This guide aims to help the reader avoid needless cost, anxiety and heartache by teaching how to form a relationship with the horse based on trust and harmony and to develop a rewarding partnership with the animal. The authors aim to explore all aspects of horse care and handling, including the relationship between horses and humans, and how horses learn and communicate. Day-to-day handling is also covered, from basic handling on the ground, grooming, tack and transport through to shows and competitions. Individual chapters focus on the behavioural characteristics of the mare and foal, stallion and the young horse. Advice is also offered for the owner of the problem horse with practical solutions for vices such as biting, kicking, rearing and pulling.| SKU | Unavailable |
