This book gives good incite to the person who is trying to partner with their horse. Trying to find your way when everyone has an opinion is hard. This approach is a balanced approach, good for you and the horse.

I did thoroughly enjoy this book. I have done and read a significant amount of natural training methods so some of the ground work stuff was fairly elementary and sometimes not as ‘natural’ as I would like – found it to be a little incongruent with the ‘positive’ and ‘saying yes’ part of the title.
None-the-less the under saddle training suggestions – especially teaching the half halt and circle work – were invaluable and made this book a worthwhile purchase. Like any book I its important to take away what is useful to you and not be too critical of the remainder which may work very well for others.

What a great book! With so many books available on natural horsemanship, horse behavior and training it’s easy to accummulate a whole equestrian library rather quickly. There are really only two books you can’t go without though:
Gincy Bucklin’s What Your Horse Wants You to Know and Sarah Blanchard’s The Power of Positive Horse Training.
Not only are both books full of great suggestions but more importantly they help bridge the language barrier between horse and human. Wonderful books to own, easy and interesting to read and great reference tools and morale builders when you and your equine partner hit a road block.
