The Horse Behaviour Handbook

Engaging visual approach and practical guide to explaining the good and bad behavior of your horse!

The relationship between horse and human has been a close one for thousands of years, and until only recently horses were part of our everyday existence. Yet the love of horses remains as consummate as romance, and when a horse does not respond, or responds badly, it can be just as heartbreaking.

In this accessible and instructive book, author Abigail Hogg shares her intimate and extensive knowledge of working with horses and riders in a range of cultural settings. Use case studies, color diagrams, tables and checklists, readers will find great detail on how and why horses behave as they do. It draws on Hogg's personal experience in dealing with problem horses and offers sympathetic, informed and intelligent advice on how to get the best out of both horse and rider.
