Synopsis
Ask someone who works with horses how best to communicate with a balky colt and she will tell you that horses do not respond to human cajoling. To be successful the human must understand and work with, not against, the horse's instincts, needs, and fears. When a trainer resorts to human teaching methods -- reasoning, begging, bribing, even hugging and kissing -- the horse will become confused and unable to respond appropriately. But if horses are treated respectfully with methods they understand, everyone involved -- animal and human -- will be happier, safer, and more productive. Horse trainer and instructor Cherry Hill believes that every human/horse relationship benefits from a greater human understanding of what motivates horses, how they experience the world, what makes them happy, and what worries them. Journey through the equine mind with Hill as she explores all that makes a horse tick. How do his basic needs dictate his behavior and mood? What touches and tastes appeal to his senses? How does his " flight or fight" instinct dictate his response to sudden movements? Hill offers interactive experiments -- fun for both horse and human -- that bear out her findings on horse behavior. And her final chapter presents simple training methods that draw from the insights and information presented throughout the book., In this fascinating best seller, Cherry Hill explores the way horses think and how it affects their behavior. Explaining why certain smells and sounds appeal to your horse's sensibility and what sets off his sudden movements, Hill stresses how recognizing the thought processes behind your horse's actions can help you communicate effectively and develop a trusting relationship based on mutual respect., Understanding how your horse thinks can help you reach your training goals faster and enhance the special bond between horse and rider.

  • The book is a great read. I'd say it's necessary for a beginner.

    I purchased this book because i love horses, and have access to 3 of them at a pasture down the street. I want to understand them, so that we can have nice visits. This is an awesome teaching tool for beginners. I'm sure there is wisdom in the book for old hands too. "How to Think Like A Horse" gives information in easy-to-read language, on everything you could want to know about how horses are put together, timelines for aging, teething, and more. Simple, but effective illustrations are used to show horse body language, gaits, etc. The horse's thinking process, or reasons they misbehave are widely discussed, and help offered for the misbehaviors. Even the human is taught how to approach, and teach the horse in a gentle and loving way. I can't think of anything that could have been ...

  • REQUIRED READING for ALL -Talk "horse", ride natural !

    I have been training horses since I was 9 years old. As a child, I read every book I could find about horses and finally was able to put some of my learning into practice with "real live horses". There are some people who are "amazed" at my ability to "talk horse" but I believe that it is a combination of my intense interest through reading but others think that it is "genetic" since I am part "Delaware Native American". Regardless, I found this book to be a valuable resource, in addition to validation to so many of the "things (talk)" that I have always done with the horses I worked with. I am beginning the "retirement phase" of my life by beginning to formally pursue equitation training of humans. I plan to make reading Cherry Hill's book, required reading for all my potential ...

  • How to Think Like a Horse by Cherry Hill (2006)

    This easy read book is great for those who have owned horses for years or for the new horse owner. Anyone who is becoming a Vet Tech or assistant would also benefit from reading this book. Cherry Hill gets right into the horses mind and explains what they think and how/why they react as they do. It helps to explain to us "humans" that the horse is not trying to be "bad" at times but is reacting out of years of natural instinct, be is out of fear, protection, and/or "feelings". They are not "dumb" or "stupid" as a matter of fact they are quite the opposite. They are able and willing to learn, we just need to know how they think and how they learn best. Great Book! Great Read!!!

  • The title says it all, you will understand the horse much better after reading this book.

    a great book for understanding what and why horses are the way they are. If you can understand the basic horse, you will become a better rider. This book is not about horsemanship, but goes to great length so the reader comes away with much more complete understanding of the horse.

  • I am really enjoying Thinking Like a Horse, LOL

    I have been leasing a horse for awhile and finally bought my very own horse so I figure I better really start thinking like a horse. This book is great so far. I'm only 1/3 of the way through it and have learned so much. Including how and why not to take things personal when my girl acts a certain way. Also how to gain her respect. So far I am LOVING it. It is easy to follow and understand as well.
