Based on an analysis of how horses naturally behave, this practical and helpful handbook addresses common problems that owners have with their horses and how to overcome them. Horse owners learn to use a horse’s natural instincts as a sociable herd animal to curb such behaviors as fidgeting during grooming, pushing their owners up against a wall, and kicking their stable walls. Written in an accessible, easy-to-reference A-Z format, each behavior problem is addressed both in terms of what causes the behavior and what can be done to solve it before it becomes habitual and a danger to the horse and its rider.
