interesting listen and educational

I bought this audiobook for my nephew who was given a horse for his birthday..
This information is helping him and the colt.
This audiobook has opened my eyes to my horses perspective and given me the confidence in myself to train my own horses. It’s well written easy to understand with relatable life stories from the author.
I recommend this audiobook.

covers everything Horsemanship!

This book covers everything you need to know about horse riding, horse psychology and Horsemanship. I have been a horse rider for 10 years, this book covers everything, highly recommend this book. It gives you a better understanding of the psychology of a horse which is critical. My horse kept taking off with me and I now have a better understanding of why this is happening. I especially found it helpful that the author provides a pdf to help you once completing the book.

A must for anyone planning to own or train a horse

I thoroughly enjoyed this listen. I have two friends who recently acquired rescue horses and are navigating the journey of learning alongside these gorgeous creatures. There is so much knowledge to acquire, but this audiobook really sets a solid foundation. I will definitely look for more from this author and send it to my friends. This listen has also made me want to jump into this venture with them!

Discover the secrets to building a strong bond wit

I don’t own a horse, but I’ve always loved horses because they are such magnificent creatures. Because the author really emphasizes how important the bond is with your horse, I wanted to give this a listen to better understand these amazing animals. I loved learning about the horse’s psychology, gaining their trust, and learning to talk their language. This 3-in-1 guide provides you with all the fundamental and foundational skills you need to build that special bond with your horse. Highly recommend.

Informative and interesting

First, I would like to say the book is well organized and easy to follow. I have watched horse races on TV and know some people who own horses, but I didn't realize how intricate and interesting horsemanship is. This book provides a good guide on the principles and execution of horsemanship. From this book, I learned that training a horse is as much as training the rider/owner as the horse. Having a horse as a companion can also be very therapeutic. The author provides a lot of advice to help listeners avoid the common mistake new horse owner makes.

Great resource!

I got this for my friend that needs help with her horse and this does not disappoint! This book helps you understand your horse's psychology and gives you the information and tools to better prepare yourself when it comes to relationship building for effective communication! This is very valuable to all horse owners as it really equips you with the ability to solve any problems and avoiding it in the first place. The tips here can even save your life as horses can be dangerous! The narration is well done as it delivers the content clearly with a good pace. Highly recommended resource that will benefit you and your horse!

This book is extremely inspiring for anyone who loves horses but doesn't feel confident about getting a horse. Yes, it's a lot of work. But this book will tell you how to get started with choosing a horse, training, and the most important part - building a bond with your horse. Then it will guide you through every step of the way. It's very detailed and covers all the basics and more!
