Would you like to learn about horse behaviour, how to manage behaviour problems and find out more about horse behaviour consulting?
A better understanding of horse behaviour and the principles of consulting can help you improve your relationship with your own horse and give you the confidence to make better-informed choices about riding, handling, training and competing.

You will learn about:
common causes of horse behaviour problems
common behaviour problems and how to manage them
the horse's behavioural needs
equine stress and how to manage it
how to assess horse behaviour
how to assess emotional thresholds
the process of horse behaviour consulting
