We've all heard the saying, "horses are a lot of work." But if dealing with your horse's attitude is taking up all of your time, energy, and money, it might be time to take a closer look at what's going on.
Author Meredith Hill has spent over 30 years observing and learning about horses in a variety of settings. From high-stress show barns to local rescues, she strives to achieve what she calls a "working relationship" of mutual respect with every horse she works with.
Sharing her experiences and heart-warming stories about her own horses, Hill provides readers with a wealth of information, including:
? How horses and their wild instincts evolved
? How to determine if a horse is misbehaving or not feeling well
? How to assess your horse's behavior, including common behavioral issues
? How to read your horse's body language and facial expressions
? How professionals can help us and our horses on the path to behaving well and demonstrating good manners

What to Do When Your Horse Is Acting Like a Monster, and When (and How) to Call for Help is the ultimate resource for understanding what your horse is trying to tell you.
