Is your horse afraid of the farrier? Are you both struggling during
training sessions? Do you want to use clicker training but
don't know where to begin?
If you understand how your horse learns and why your training is
effective, you can train faster, more ethically, and more
sympathetically. Knowing Your Horse will be a key resource if you
want to better understand your horse's behaviour and make the
most of that understanding to improve your training
techniques.
Knowing Your Horse gives you a range of practical tools to
employ in solving equine behaviour problems, and training tasks and
case studies demonstrate these tools in use. Emma Lethbridge
thoroughly but simply explains learning theory as applied to
horses, and offers practical advice on reward systems, positive and
negative reinforcement, and overcoming fears and phobias. If
it's not horses but humans that are causing you problems in
training, this book will also help you to explain the concepts to
other people. Learning recaps offer quick summaries and training
logs are provided for your own training notes.
