In this outstanding guide to anticipating and managing horse behavioral and training issues, "America's Most Trusted Horseman"--renowned trainer and clinician John Lyons--teaches readers how to "troubleshoot" common problems such as spooking, running away, rearing, kicking, head-shyness, balking at water, refusing to load, and more. Lyons explains why horses are prone to certain reactions and then demonstrates how his methods can help prevent a minor miscommunication between horse and rider from escalating into a frustrating--and often dangerous--battle of wills. Each piece of the training process is accompanied by a clear, explanatory photo, and step by pictorial step, readers will find themselves closer to better, more understanding relationships with their horses.
