Product Information

This practical book helps you interpret and connect the physical signals that horses display in response to their environment. These signals are evident in the everyday actions, gestures and attitudes that horses communicate to each other, but are often so subtle that they can go unnoticed by humans. This book aims to rectify that, offering horse lovers and equine professionals an opportunity to gain a unique insight into their 'horse's world'. Key features: includes detailed description of language signs of domestic horses, with a special emphasis on calming signals includes 275 pictures to visualize various language signs, calming signals, behaviour sequences and facial features presents communication ladders to show how a horse responds to incentives in his environment, and what signals he uses at certain moments contains tips on the use of the communication ladders and calming signals to improve the socialisation, training and wellbeing of your horse considers equine psychological stress from an environmental perspective, providing a valuable alternative to the current common clinical perspective. After reading this book you will be more astute in spotting calming signals, displacement activities, stress signals and distance-increasing signals, and better able to see which stimuli your horse can handle and which he cannot. This means you will know what to do to calm your horse before his stress rises to an unmanageable level. Language Signs and Calming Signals of Horses is both fascinating and important reading for any equine veterinary practitioner, student or nurse, as well as horse owners and trainers.

"A few minutes scanning through this book quickly brings to our attention aspects of equine communication that we have misunderstood or just not known about. Not only does the book go into what horses are putting out to us in considerable, and considered, detail but also it describes how we can effectively and appropriately communicate with them. It stresses the hyper-sensitive nature of horses and the importance of keeping them calm, and of calming them down when, as inevitably happens sometimes, they become upset. This book has obviously been a labour of love and one that brings to the subjects of equine behaviour and management a whole new and vitally important perspective. It is fascinating, instructive, thought-provoking and heart-warming, and entirely in line with Tracking-up 's own values." Sunsan McBane in tracking-up magazine, May 2022

I made the purchase thinking they were good quality products, but unfortunately I was the victim of a seller who doesn't tell the truth, the 3 binoculars were defective, and the seller says on ebay that he tested all 3, he deceives the buyer. I've been buying on eBay for 15 years and I've never been scammed like that. keep the $70, and be happy
