"There are a lot of great answers to tough training questions here."-- Five-Time Olympian Anne Kursinski "The reality of riding is that someday, one day, you'll have a horse that stumps you--he won't go forward; won't accept contact; or he rears, bucks, spins, or ducks out. When that day comes, you'll want Doug's advice on hand. ... It will save you time and money, and it may help you see that your 'problem horse' isn't a 'problem' at all--just a challenge worth meeting."-- FEI "O" Dressage Judge Linda Zang "Payne's advice and solutions show an honest, thoughtful horseman who always looks for the good in any horse but doesn't shy away from a serious 'problem child.' If you've ever come across an issue with a horse young or old, experienced or not, you're sure to find an answer in The Riding Horse Repair Manual ." -- The Chronicle of the Horse "Written by the acclaimed Olympic eventer, this book is exactly what it says it is--a manual to troubleshoot and fix some of the most common mishaps we face while training and riding. Doug breaks down problems in the most approachable way and offers sound advice on how to fix them. His training methods are kind to the horse and eye-opening for the reader/rider. No wonder he's had such a storied career so far. There's a tip or a trick for every horse person, no matter their age or skill level, in this book." --Heels Down Media "Payne's background as a Rochester Institute of Technology mechanical engineering graduate is evident in [this] well-organized volume, which states problems, offers a variety of pinpoint solutions, and gives riders an opportunity for applying 'self-examination' to themselves and their mounts." -- Newark Star-Ledger "Overall, The Riding Horse Repair Manual is a great read, and a handy tool to have in your training arsenal. ... Doug does a wonderful job speaking objectively about the varying problems that can arise when dealing with horses, and helping riders work through them correctly." --Eventing Nation Book Club, There are a lot of great answers to tough training questions here."—Five-Time Olympian Anne Kursinski The reality of riding is that someday, one day, you'll have a horse that stumps you—he won't go forward; won't accept contact; or he rears, bucks, spins, or ducks out.

Synopsis
Doug Payne has made a name for himself in equestrian circles as the "go-to guy" when it comes to finding a way forward with problem horses. Now he's sharing his tips and techniques for solving some of the most common yet challenging issues., There are many horses out there that express discomfort or discontent in a variety of troublesome ways. These are the common problems riders at all levels deal with on a regular basis, such as bucking, rearing, bolting, pulling, grinding teeth, refusing fences, and running out - to name but a few! Doug Payne has made a name for himself in equestrian circles as the "go-to guy" when it comes to finding a way forward with problem horses. Now he's sharing his tips and techniques for solving some of the most common contact issues, unruly outbursts, and jumping problems that riders experience. Learn about causes for problem behaviour - from physical issues to "holes" in a horse's education - and discover dozens of safe and professionally tested solutions and step-by-step exercises., Contending that nearly all horse behavior problems result from incorrect or inconsistent training, this work highlights the potential behind the world's promising equine model citizens and partners. The guide emphasizes systematic reconditioning while encouraging patience and proper skills in riders, providing a comprehensive plan for addressing issues such as bucking, bolting, rearing, spooking, lack of confidence, jumping issues, and more. Featuring a clear, accessible outline, this is the definitive solution to implementing consistent training methods, allowing riders to take full advantage of their horses' unrealized abilities. Suggestions for starting young horses, detailed case studies, and strategies for future success are also included.

However, when I saw that the seller had not shipped the book after more than 15 days had passed since my order I felt I must write to say that I had actually placed an order with the seller and inquire when it planned to send the book. The brusque reply was that a tracking number was available, but no number HAD been created until I pointed out that I had placed the order.Catland by Hughes, Kathryn, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US (#356798982438)
