Chaim Faibish, Harry

Harry Chaim Faibish studied under Egon von Neindorff, Nuno Oliveira and Hans Riegler and has worked in Europe and the USA at highly prestigious stud farms, training centers and competition yards. While he has vast experience of working with horses of different breeds and types in all stages of their development, his chief love is helping to rehabilitate horses who have been disadvantaged, mentally or physically, by inadequate or inappropriate handling. In Healing Horses the Classical Way, explains why riding and training rooted in the classical tradition is the only sure way to prevent such problems developing and how, if they are inherited from previous handlers, it can remedy serious and ingrained traumas. These ideas are illustrated by a number of detailed case histories from the author's own work. The case histories are supported by a brief autobiography and a section in which the author reiterates ideas and practices which lie at the foundation of classical riding

Understanding how and why a horse behaves as it does is key to solving problems. Equine behavior is today's hot topic. Years ago owners and riders coped with behavioral problems by forceful means, with little attempt to understand the underlying cause. Now all that has changed and owners clamor to discover what makes their horses 'tick'. This book presents detailed, concise answers to 100 common issues. Topics include: the different schools of thought about equine behavior; how horses associate with each other, with humans and with other animals; how to tell what a horse is feeling; overcoming past ill-treatment; meeting a horse halfway; and whether there are such things as dominance and hierarchies in horse society. It is not always possible to 'cure' a problem behavior but there are always ways to manage it. In this comprehensive and accessible problem solver readers will find practical, reliable ways for solving or greatly improving behavioral problems.

Miller, Robert Dr. DVM

The Revolution in Horsemanship, Robert M. Miller, D.V.M., Traced the rise of Natural Horsemanship. Now he addresses the reasons why and how the method is so successful, so that horseman of all levels of experience can use it to the fullest advantage. Drawing examples from years of observation and experimentation with a variety of animal species, the author shares the reasons why certain behaviors cause fear in horses. He then goes on to prove how conditioning, desensitization, rewards, and timing will help horses overcome such instincts - and on the animal's own terms. Helping to make the case for this positive approach are many examples from Dr. Miller's long and varied career as a horseman and veterinarian, as well as from the experiences of Pat Parelli, Clinton Anderson, Monte Roberts, John Lyons, and other noted Natural Horsemanship clinicians.

Hempfling, K.F.

Klaus Ferdinand Hempfling took the international horse world by storm with his acclaimed book and companion video Dancing With Horses. Now, he returns with another illuminating look at his groundbreaking theories. In What Horses Reveal, Hempfling explains his unique system for recognizing horses' personalities: every horse no matter what breed or type, fits into one of his 26 clearly defined character groups. Each of these character groups has a corresponding training methodology – a carefully considered process of learning that best serves that type of horse's habitual behaviors, inclinations, and pet peeves. Hempfling also emphasizes the importance of understanding the intricacies of body language: both the horse's and your own. He explains that mental and physical self-control are imperative when working with horses – one misplaced or misunderstood feeling, glance, posture, attitude or movement can make the difference between success and failure in your relationship.
