Ten Golden Rules of Horse Training: Universal Laws for All Training Levels and Riding Styles by Bruce Nock

Let's face it; whenever we interact with our horses we're training them. Good, bad or indifferent, they are learning something. Using the Ten Golden Rules will guide your actions and reactions, regardless of a horse's temperament, experience and the exact circumstances. They apply to all styles of riding pleasure, hunter, jumper, dressage, and Western-and to all levels of training, from the most basic to the most advanced. And, they apply to handling horses from the ground as well as from the saddle. The result? A happier more cooperative relationship between you and your horse, based on trust and understanding.
