"Horses and humans have shared a strong bond for over 5,000 years, and this relationship continues today, with millions of people involved in the equine world. The Secret Language of Horses is the book equivalent of feed, stable, and exercise -- providing all the basics for horse health and happiness. But it also goes beyond that, helping you truly understand your horse by explaining how to translate what your horse's actions "say" and, in turn, how it interprets your behaviour. These insights strengthen the bond between you and your horse and enhance all aspects of equine activities, from hacking to competition. In The Secret Language of Horses you'll learn about horse breeds and types, riding disciplines, horse communication, grooming, care, health maintenance, and more. It's everything you need to know, and the key to a contented horse and a confident owner."--From publisher.
