Horses and humans share a long, harmonious relationship stretching back thousands of years. Wouldn’t it be wonderful to know precisely what every swish of a tail, every stomp of a hoof, and every whinny really means? Now you can discover what your horse is trying to tell you in the new Horse and Pony Body Language Phrasebook. Though horses and ponies cannot speak, they have evolved a highly sophisticated system for communication. All of the most common behavioral traits of horses and ponies are examined in detail. Learn to recognize when your horse is happy, stressed, afraid, bored, or in pain. Each spread in this practical reference book features one of 100 ways to read your horse’s signals, including postures, gestures, and sounds. Full of beautiful full-color photographs and insightful advice written by animal psychologists and behavior experts.

A horse can get to a speed of 30 mph in three to four seconds and weighs about half a ton--it is best to know what you are doing and how to control the horse!

Blending classical riding principles with modern Equitation Science, this book offers practical guidance for training and riding horses. It emphasizes clear, actionable techniques that enhance both rider and horse performance, making it a valuable resource for equestrians seeking to improve their skills through a scientifically informed approach.

Advises on horse-appropriate training techniques and the development of mutual trust between horse and rider.
