Build A Better Bond - Suzannah Kolbeck

. .

Résumé :
Build A Better Bond gives new horse owners the tools to develop a relationship with their horse based on trust and mutual respect. It contains activities and exercises that help horse owners better understand and enjoy their equine friend. It's designed to be used at the barn to help new owners position themselves as not only the leader of their herd of two but a supportive partner for their horse. The goal is a safe horse that is engaged, eager to learn, and easy to understand. With these activities - both on the ground and mounted - new owners can build a foundation that translates into a more rewarding relationship with their horse. Build A Better Bond is a less intimidating introduction for people whose love of horses outstrips their understanding of what to do with them - it's for people who don't yet know what they don't know. Rather than drill down on one aspect of horse ownership, it explores a wide range of activities to find what is most helpful for humans and their equine companions as they begin their work together. Each chapter approaches specific exercises that can help horse owners create a lasting and meaningful connection with their equine partners. This holistic approach to horses provides a jumping-off point for deeper study in areas that interest both horse and rider. An appendix offers books for further investigation from masters on each topic. Even people with some horse experience can learn how to deepen and strengthen their bond by turning off their routine actions and tuning in to their horse....
