To be successful the human must understand and work with, not against, the horse’s instincts, needs, and fears. When a trainer resorts to human teaching methods — reasoning, begging, bribing, even hugging and kissing — the horse will become confused and unable to respond appropriately. But if horses are treated respectfully with methods they understand, everyone involved — animal and human — will be happier, safer, and more productive. Horse trainer and instructor Cherry Hill believes that every human/horse relationship benefits from a greater human understanding of what motivates horses, how they experience the world, what makes them happy, and what worries them. Journey through the equine mind with Hill as she explores all that makes a horse tick. How do his basic needs dictate his behavior and mood? What touches and tastes appeal to his senses? How does his “flight or fight” instinct dictate his response to sudden movements? Hill offers interactive experiments — fun for both horse and human — that bear out her findings on horse behavior. And her final chapter presents simple training methods that draw from the insights and information presented throughout the book. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Printed in China by Regent Publishing ServicesUnbelievable! Simply "Click to Look Inside" and view the copyright page. The author needs to choose her publisher more carefully. I'll not buy this book nor anything by Storey Publishing. Rating:  - How to think like a horseAlso a great book for kids who WANT to learn more about horses and their keep -- even though Mom is gonna have to read it to them. Rating:  - Think Like a HorseThere is something for everyone in this book; the professional or amateur. I have been working with horses for 35 years and learned quite a few new tips from the book. A excellant read. Rating: - Great book on understanding the behavior of horsesI sent this book as a gift to a good friend who is an avid equestrian. She was at a camp teaching horseback riding when she received it and promptly read it from cover to cover. The other instructors were very jealous and want their own copy as well! Rating: - How To Think Like A Horse .For a used book, this one was literally like new. The seller was prompt and polite. The book arrived in a timely fashion, well-packaged to prevent damage. The contnts of the book are one of the best I have read about horses. Thank you!
