What’s Your Horse Telling You?

Sudden or seemingly bizarre equine behavior makes perfect sense when you consider that horses are acting on survival instincts and fears that have been in place for millions of years. But one of the many great characteristics of horses, one that can make them such wonderful partners, is that they can so easily adapt to our world.

Once you start to think like a horse, you’ll know what makes your horse feel calm and confident and what triggers his defense mode. To get you started, I’ll describe a horse’s basic instincts, fears, needs and routines so you can see what’s going on in his mind as he responds to sights, smells, sounds, and touch.

If you can see things from your horse’s point of view, you’ll be able to anticipate his reactions to many situations and adjust your training methods accordingly. To help, I’ve provided practical training suggestions that will allow you to get the most out of your precious horse time. The lasting reward will be a solid relationship with a curious, trusting, adaptable, and eager-to-please equine companion.

And, if you’re like me, you’ll gladly accept the added bonus when you find that you’ve become part horse yourself !
