Catching Horses Made Easy (Intelligent Horsemanship)
by: Marks, Kelly
Every owner knows the frustration of not being able to catch their horse
or pony but by following Kelly's practical advice you will soon have horses
that positively want to be caught! A horse's natural inclination is to
live in cooperation rather than conflict and the essence of this book
is to help you to work with the horse and not against him. Kelly shows
the reader how to look at things from the horse's viewpoint and by doing
so to make him want to be with us and to follow us. Kelly writes about
initial handling in the stable and in the field and describes the ways
in which we can improve our body language so that he is comfortable being
with us. Working with the methods described by Kelly you will soon have
a horse that will not only want to come with you but will also be a generally
more willing partner. Color photos. 24 pgs.

Handling The Untouched Horse (Intelligent Horsemanship)
by: Marks, Kelly
Few things are more rewarding than meeting a horse that is untouched by
humans and over a period of minutes, hours or days causing him to believe
that humans are not so bad after all - in fact that it is even good to
be near them! In this book Kelly Marks writes about the techniques and
skills required to achieve the answers to one of the many problems she
encounters most frequently. Beginning with ways to catch the horse and
separate him from his companions, Kelly proceeds to describe how to put
a first headcollar on and then to lead the horse. As with all her teaching,
Kelly bases her advice on experience gained from her work handling a wide
variety of horses and ponies at her demonstrations and clinics around
the world. Color photos. 24 pgs.
