Did I Really Mean to Buy a Horse: What to Do When Your Horse Is Acting Like a Monster, and When (and How) to Call for Help (Horse Care) (Unabridged‪)‬

We’ve all heard the saying “horses are a lot of work”. But if dealing with your horse’s attitude is taking up all of your time, energy, and money, it might be time to take a closer look at what’s going on.

Sharing her experiences and heart-warming stories about her own horses, Hill provides listeners with a wealth of information, including:

How horses and their wild instincts evolved
How to determine if a horse is misbehaving or not feeling well
How to assess your horse’s behavior, including common behavioral issues
