$12.00
Cherry Hill -- horse trainer, judge and college professor -- picks up where she left off with "The Formative Years." This book will take you through a training schedule for your green-broke horse. On a month-by-month program, you'll go from planning a training program and fitting the saddle through groundwork review and up to lateral work and collection. This is good solid training for any horse -- whether you want to end up with a great trail horse or a show horse -- the basics are all the same. This organized approach will help you to set realistic goals, and to recognize when your horse is making the right kind of progress. It will also help prevent the sporadic and erratic training that produces inconsistent performers. This book takes you through the entire first year of a horse's training -- so by the end of the year, he's not only become responsive, balanced and obedient in the ring, but a confident companion for the trail. 244pgs, Hardcover
