Publisher's summary

The foundational work you do now is critical, and you’ll always have it to fall back on. Make sure your horse is never spooked in a dangerous moment again…

From desensitizing and disengaging to backing up, these are fundamental training procedures you can’t afford to get wrong...and they’re not procedures you’ll only ever have to engage in once.

You don’t need to spend years in equestrian school to learn these skills: You simply need access to all the essential knowledge distilled and explained in one clear resource...and that’s exactly what you’ll find in this guide.

Inside, you’ll discover:

• The art of desensitizing - guard against your horse becoming spooked at a critical moment
• How to make sure your horse will disengage in any situation that starts to get out of control
• The single most important skill you can teach your horse in order to establish gentle (but firm) leadership
• Why "flexing" is a crucial skill to teach...and the secret to rendering your inside rein unnecessary as a steering tool
• The number 1 thing you must not do in a frustrating training session if you want to maintain control of your horse
• The fundamental skill you’ll need in order to calm a highly strung horse (think yoga for horses...but easier and more professional!)

And much more.

The foundational skills you build with your horse now will pave the way for a solid relationship and a future in which you’re always in control.

Nothing can be taken for granted in horsemanship, and no matter what stage of the journey you’re at, you’ll need to polish these skills throughout your horse’s lifetime.

Great training about the personal aspects of the horse.

I love the mantra: “You do not want your horse to fear you, but to trust you.” No anger.

Thorough!

I loved this audiobook! First off, the narrator's voice was perfect for this read, quite rugged. And I loved the detailed advice like the 'horse hair method'. I'd recommend to anybody if you want to be skilled in ownership of these beautiful creatures, highly recommend!

Great tips!

I got this audio book out of curiosity as I would love to own a horse someday. It may be short but I learned quite a lot about horses and how to work with them so they trust you and become willing to follow your lead.

Highly recommend.

So much information in this little book. I highly recommend it for anyone working with horses.

Fascinating information

My best friend has been into horses for a number of years now. She's even built a new barn for her two horses. I recently visited her and was so impressed by her set up and wanted to know more about her interest. This beginner audio book was great as it laid the foundation for me to understand all that my best friend has done with her horses. Can't wait to chat with her after learning all that I have from this book!
