Overview

Best-selling author Cherry Hill explores how horses learn, with the focus on the knowledge every horse needs to live confidently in the company of humans.

Description

New From Cherry Hill

Excerpted in Equus, March 2011 issue

Cherry Hill’s groundbreaking bestseller, How to Think Like a Horse, showed readers how horses think, learn, respond to stimuli, and interpret human behavior. In this must-read follow-up, What Every Horse Should Know, Hill dissects how horses learn and how to work within their abilities to secure the knowledge that they need to live safely and confidently in the company of humans. Mastering these skills is critical for horses and caregivers to reach the full potential of their partnership.

What Every Horse Should Know addresses all stages of a horse’s life from foalhood to old age. Cherry Hill gives readers the lessons in each chapter that are vital for domesticated horses, whether trail horse, dressage or jumper, rodeo, or ranch horse. The chapters cover how to handle a horse without fear, how to teach respect and patience, and how the horse can master the “work” he needs to do. Readers can start at the beginning and work their way through the book, or dip in and out as needed for the issue they are working with their equine partner on. There are tests for assessing the level of a horse’s knowledge, suggestions on developing individual training programs, and finally, a comprehensive training program checklist that detail what each horse should know according to his age.

For anyone who reads Temple Grandin’s thought-provoking treatises on animal behavior, Cherry Hill is the complement in the equine world. Her thoughtful and informed words will intrigue anyone seeking insight into how to enrich and strengthen the horse-human relationship.

Cherry Hill is an internationally renowned instructor, horse trainer, and author of more than 30 horse books and DVDs. She cares for five horses on a 70-acre horse facility in Colorado.
