Horses are living animals and, as such, rarely come 'fault-free' with guarantees as to their suitability for a purpose or with 'push-button' controls to make them do what you want them to do. Step-by-step photographic sequences show exactly how the suggested remedial programmes should be carried out.

(back cover): Breaking Bad Habits in HORSES Horses are sensitive animals and rarely come entirely fault free. Here is a practical and humane approach to solving the most common equine problems. BEHAVIORAL PROBLEMS originate from the horse's own temperament. They include high-strung behavior, aggressive behavior, fear of people, bolting to or from a field, and many others. This book will advise you on how to deal with all of them. STABLE VICES AND MANAGEMENT PROBLEMS. These include nipping, destructive behavior, fence breaking, escaping from pastures, and many others. The author, an experienced horse owner and trainer, gives you effective methods of control. EQUITATION AND SCHOOLING PROBLEMS. Your horse resists being bridled, is difficult to mount, bucks and rears, refuses to jump a fence, is distracted at dressage, or shows other behavioral problems. The author explains the importance of cross-training your horse.

A go-to manual for any horse owner, this book addresses a range of equine behavioral problems, from the mild--refusing to stand still or tail rubbing, for example--to the severe, such as rearing under saddle or attacking other horses. With topics broken into four main categories--bad habits in the stable, correcting ground manners, problems under saddle, and the reluctant traveler--noted rancher and horse book author Heather Smith Thomas dissects each topic by addressing the source of the problem, providing solutions to the behavioral issue, and discussing what to do if the fix doesn't stick.
