Innisfree Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Dd16, who is a new owner of her first horse, could use some good horse reading, anything from all about horse care to engaging science writing. She's interested in psychology and animal cognition in general, but books don't need to focus on that area. She's also toying with thoughts of veterinary medicine. If it makes a difference, she rides at a hunter/jumper stable, but she isn't really focused on showing. Books we already have are limited to my ancient Pony Club Manual of Horsemanship, c.1970s, and an updated version of the same. Anything we should read or have on hand for reference?

Selkie Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 I would recommend anything by Mark Rashid, Allan J. Hamilton, or Buck Brannaman. The Horse: Its Nature, Revealed by Emmanuelle Bernard & Sabine Stuewer is another favorite of mine. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kathleen Lindley has a good one out too. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
